Their territorial scope is the river basin district, defined by Royal Decree. Programme actions to develop in order to meet demands and reach environmental objectives, in a context of scarcity conditions. 8

9 The Júcar River Basin District 9

10 The Júcar River Basin District (JRBA, 1934) District surface: Km 2. According to its Mediterranean character, only 72% of rivers enjoy a permanent hydrological regimen. Differently from other European districts, like Danube, presents the singularity of having several river basins of certain importance. 10

11 The Júcar River Basin District The Júcar Hydrological District shows a fragile imbalance between resources and demands Resources and demands in the Júcar River Basin District 1980/2009 There are sites of high environmental value Some areas suffer high water stress 11

12 The Programme of Measures in Júcar River Basin District 12

13 The programme of measures The Programmes of Measures aim to satisfy the environmental objectives of D2000/60/CE with a basic or complementary character. They include the measures approved by the competent administrations on water protection within their competence scope. Those competent administrations (national, regional or local) provide the river basin authority the necessary information to keep the programme updated 13

14 The programme of measures in JRBD Strategic line Water body quality improvement Improvement of the surface hydromorphological conditions Investment Mill Investment Mill Investment Mill Total investment Mill 409,3 418,05 170,57 997,91 189,17 155,91 53,36 398,44 Demand management 352,71 353,69 297, ,42 Resources availability increase 653,18 515,65 584, ,01 Flood risk management 325,11 149,36 623, ,98 Rest of measures in compliance with WFD 91,35 56,7 61,09 209,14 TOTAL 2.020, , , ,91 14

17 Future challenges for water policy in Júcar River Basin District 17

18 Future challenges for water policy in JRBD Complex distribution of water competences Heavy administrative procedure until the formal approval of the River Basin Management Plans Providing users with more guarantees and security of water supply Higher protection before extreme phenomena: droughts and floods Integrating non conventional resources (desalination and reutilisation) in economic and management systems Water treatment and sanitation improvement 18
