Overview

• Leaders from the three regions met in Alicante to formalize a joint “green defense” front to keep the Tajo–Segura transfer operating.
• Murcia formally asked the Ministry for the Ecological Transition to withdraw its proposed modification of the transfer’s exploitation rules.
• A report presented by the Generalitat Valenciana contends that the Tajo’s problems stem from basin management rather than the transfer itself.
• Regional officials say the ministry has frozen final approval of the new rules and has not held a formal meeting with the three governments.
• The alliance is advancing technical arguments, including a joint document developed at the University of Alicante, while Supreme Court appeals challenge the 2023 plan that set the Tajo’s ecological flow at 8.65 m3/s.
