Water management is one of the common problems in the North of Portugal and Galicia, so the Congress therefore seeks to convey the necessary balance between economic utilitarian values and symbolic, aesthetic and cultural values linked to water.

ICEACSA Group, as well as contributing to the organization of this interesting conference as a co-sponsor, will actively participate in the various events organized and will present three papers with titles “Water Supply to the Metropolitan Area of A Coruña from the Artificial Lake of the Power the Plant of Meirama ” together with AUGAS DE GALICIA and PROYFE, “Improving of Mains Sewer of Breiro river, storm drainage and implementation of Sustainable Urban Drainage Techniques. Boiro (A Coruña)” together with AUGAS DE GALICIA and PROYFE, and “Inventory and Study of Traditional Hydraulic Infrastructures of Industrial character in Galicia” together with AUGAS DE GALICIA and AIN ACTIVE. The three works are success cases in which the Company has satisfied the expectations of its Customers and at the same time has kept its commitment to sustainability and respect for the environment, ensuring an optimal management of water as a scarce and valuable resource.
