The Mayor of Nerja, José Alberto Armijo, has announced that the contract for the design and construction of the long awaited new water treatment plant for Nerja has been signed by the Secretary of State for the Environment and the joint venture company that won the bidding process. The mayor said “this is another step forward for this very important project”.

The contractor now has three months to produce the final draft of the project. As the contract was signed on the 12th of December 2012, they have until March 12, 2013 to deliver the project blueprint, which will be examined and amended if necessary by engineers from the Environment Ministry.

The Mayor also stated that whilst welcoming the fact that the contract had been signed, he recognises that there is much work still to be done and is “very aware of the paperwork and deadlines still to be met”.
