Project: Conservation of the riverbank of the Deva River (Cantabria) using bioengineering techniques

The Hydrographic Confederation of the North is working on recovering areas deteriorated by human action, defending riverbanks and coastlines against floods and cleaning up and repairing all the connected natural enclaves

These types of activities are characteristic of the Ministry's new environmental philosophy, whose goals include the conservation and improvement of the geomorphological dynamics of the river systems and recovery of the associated ecosystems. Implementing this environmental policy requires introducing new techniques that, although they are not very well known in the area of the Hydrographic Confederation of the North, have already been applied successfully in other geographical areas.
