Overview

• The commission approved sending 168 hectometers of water to Levante in the coming months, including 27 hm³ classified as automatic for September.
• Most of the authorized volume corresponds to transfers previously approved but not executed after the August canal rupture halted flows.
• The Entrepeñas–Buendía riparian municipalities will seek precautionary measures and plan judicial appeals, arguing the carry‑over violates Law 21/2015.
• Their case cites the law’s additional fifth provision, which limits using non‑transferred volumes beyond the hydrological year except under justified catastrophic or extreme need.
• Castilla‑La Mancha’s government demands immediate application of new exploitation rules and warns ecological‑flow requirements are not being enforced, while local leaders caution the reservoirs remain around half capacity.
