Mr. Olmedo proposes two ways to bring the record:
is recorded and then a summary.
was taking notes.
It chooses the first option presented
Olmedo Schröder and architect John Mara Anselmi. And then there was a presentation by each of those present and their respective delegations. Olmedo
argues that it is reformulating the COMIREC a third time and that there are clear intentions to work towards its effective functioning
The Architect Mara
Anselmi, as CEO, explains that there a Legal Legal Unit, and 4 units depending on its Executive Directorate: Planning
Sanitation
Basin Integrated Water Resources Management Accounting
Institutional Relations
He explained that part of its mission aims to: "Operating the COMIREC.
Take the word Mr. Humberto Olmedo and suggests that we must make a summary of the last Management, adds, that to work properly municipalities must contribute to their management and be monitored by the COMIREC; proposed to be thinking about next year and agree on projects, elevate and raise funds for their implementation.
highlights the work of the CCHL Ituzaingó over the years regarding the proposed work on mapping and overturning its constitution as a tool for working on issues related to the basin and proposes to take in Acct. as "Model City" for the other municipalities that have not yet made up their CCHL. It also suggests
do itinerant meetings, attending also to the municipalities where the CCL remains to be established as a way to encourage their participation.
Reaffirms the need for wider dissemination of activities. Holds
that achieved international credit ACUMAR to operate projects and industrial census conducted, arguing that it is a positive and can take advantage of that information, to make our own re industrial census. Comment
would have to obtain funds for studies. Taking into account the different situations, such as environmental damage that occurs in Malvinas Argentinas immediate impact in the Delta.
He proposes that we must all address the way we work. Making plenaries or making it work committees and subsequently raise the central Comirec.
Mr. John Schroeder makes a comment about the Constitution of CCHL, saying the Ituzaingó is working very well and is starting Morón.
Mr. John Schroeder added that the main axis of analysis in the Middle Basin is the Arroyo Morón, as this channel is responsible for 30% of the pollution of the Rio de la Plata. Therefore it would identify the type of contamination contains Morón stream and also contends that it should resolve the problem of substandard housing in Hurlingham.
also adds that we must be aware of the seriousness of the situation of organo-chlorinated in the Basin. He explains that when you combine these toxic sludge, brought serious consequences so should be taken to mitigate this situation. The Architect Mara
Anselmi says about two years ago, the Minister of Infrastructure Cristina Álvarez Rodríguez is convened to conduct studies and projects in the Reconquista River Basin. Together with the architect Carlos Rodriguez, develop a study UNPRE which consisted of a road project and recovery of public green space around the River. This study concludes November 30, 2010 and is the basis for the IDB loan request, which said the Ministry of Infrastructure and OPDS are processed.
argues that since contact with the Social and Civil Organizations (CSOs), "we realized that we should begin to address the sanitation fund. " Adds that the Governor is of interest Daniel Scioli, solve problems relating to the Reconquista River and need a loan to do the works of sanitation and urbanization.
The COMIREC together with the Secretariat for Urbanism and Housing, will audit the work of a consultant, to carry out studies to build the Integrated Management Plan of the Basin and the designs for the works.
The loan is processed is U $ S 287,000,000 of which is a preview of U $ S 50,000,000 for next year, to be used in works of improvements in environmental quality.
Councilman Costas said that it seemed very interesting this and want to know: How is information exchanged? And how will the meetings?
Coepsa (Adriana Cordoba) argues that the figures contained in the Report of the Ombudsman's Office on the Reconquista River, realize the gravity of the contribution
pollution and Morón Arroyo to sanitize it should be into account all tributary streams that drain to it. In Morón Arroyo
effluent dumped Merlo Ituzaingó, Morón, Hurlingham, Tres de Febrero and the Municipality of La Matanza. The effluent that reach him are usually from industrial pollutants, contaminants, sewage and MSW. Reason by which CSOs are calling a "mapping rollover" to the municipalities, but many do not agree to release the information. Comments that there is work already developed in this regard by the acumen that has made compulsory registration of all industries in the towns that send the Matanza-Riachuelo. That is a fairly comprehensive protocol and that in this particular case, the municipalities of Morón and Merlo to belong to the basin also should already have the job done. Because information is centralized, suggests that you apply these data to ACUMAR to go ahead work. Request
also be asked to those municipalities that have not pitched their CCHL, do so because they are complying with the law and proposes that the frequency of meetings of the middle basin is bimonthly or quarterly, as also part of other DC and could dump the work on these boards with more prolixity.
John Schroeder argues that beyond the numbers of pollution, with pesticides the situation is serious due to the excessive use of agrochemicals in the Western Horticultural Pole. He adds that the University of Luján found in the Reconquista River water Organochlorine levels far exceeding the threshold allowed and which should be studied, which gives solution to that, the same as the issue of contamination of the waste generated CEAMSE that landfills constructed from 1978 to over 7 Klm. Reconquista Coast.
Coepsa (Horacio) argues that we must work on what you're doing, but also about what is going to do, because all impact on the River. That any planned activity on the river or its tributaries should go through the "filter" of COMIREC.
Environmental Respect (Horacio Saluzzi) asked to give the arguments of the studies will be developed, supports what he said Adriana Cordoba of Coepsa and argues that it is not known what methods will work. I would like to know what consulting is convened to develop the improvement plan and how to handle compliance.
Ecosur (Teresita) welcomes in principle the initiative of the meeting on the date and said that the Middle Basin is composed of 8 municipalities, are present only 3 officers and neighbors and organizations are represented, 6. He complains of the lack of staff. And asked about the expectations that this may have on others. Ecosur
claims regarding the request for rollover. "We had asked before and we now requesting that is well beyond what we Borrowing
Olmedo clarifies that requirement was not invited to the municipalities to attend. Arroyo
Darragueira (Marcelo) argues that the error is that you call rollover mappings to municipalities and these are the most responsible and why hide it
ACEN (Moreno) said: To do a comprehensive cleanup, the first thing to do is stop polluting . There is background information and should assemble. In Moreno are
major polluting industries, like the sewer plant. There is plenty of information, not to do more research, we must get to work. Criticizes lack of access to information from the Municipality of Moreno. There is talk of a new Industrial Park. Who will control? How? Warns that Lake San Francisco soon be polluted by what is coming contamination of General Rodríguez.
neighbors Library Pablo Podesta, argue that although the issue is not specific, have decided to concern the issue of pollution to neighbors.
Councilman Knittel says the establishment of an unknown CCHL Tres de Febrero. Raises a discussion about the role of industry and the role of environmentalists.
argues that NGOs are to fill the gap of the state. That should not be used for NGOs to try to endorse. That companies turn to 5 or 10 km from the cause of the basin. It proposes:
* That the NGOs are the Controller. * To assemble
mapping overturning. * What is nested
the environmental area, that is not in the hands of industry.
* That the NGOs to be a court decision and not an advisory body only. That municipalities always dodge the issues and make-up everything. Mr. Roberto Orellana
the Building Soc Remedios de Escalada, argues that residents say that at first it was all cute, then it was all pollution. He was told that once there were even fish in the stream Morón.
Coepsa (Marcelo) argues that the important thing is to get the municipalities that are not, stay away.
Hurlingham is a true "bolt anti-ecological" between the Arroyo Morón and the Reconquista River and no representative Official: San Miguel, is not and has two treatment plants, atmospheric trucks. Who controls them?
is a political decision. Olmedo
argues that someone should come here to raise proposals to the Central COMIREC, missing checks and this happens in all municipalities. Arroyo
Darragueira (Marcelo): He says there is notable absence of the state. Companies that pollute and municipalities controls do and say everything is fine. Councilman
Picolli says IDB reportedly not said they have to be the CCHL. Refers to Ituzaingó shaped him.
The Governor and the Minister not required consultation with the CC for IDB loans. This is of City Planning, albeit from Ituzaingó requested money to sanitation.
Busolini The Architect says: "In Ituzaingó we nearly 3 years working in the field, made progress in collecting information, we have made the mapping of tipping on river and count on us for all the support it takes."
Marina Parra argues that put priority on the agenda the issue of CCHL. Ranging from the 5 th meeting and requested to cross information between the municipalities and organizations.
Coepsa (Adriana). Reaffirms the need for the issue of overturning mapping, as this also leads to the detection of "clandestine" and this can be seen in the monitoring. Calls for effective compliance with the law 12653, with its Art 6 º where he talks about the introduction of CSOs.
Rita Martinez (Malvinas Argentinas neighbor) asked "Who controls the municipalities? It contends that the rollover is made in this district are relatives of officials involved. Olmedo
argues that the best way to control information is transparent. Discuss that during his visit to Brazil, sent by the IDB, was able to meet sanitation projects, like the streams of Manaus and Rio Tiete. Where official Web pages, is published throughout the rollover information and monitoring, In addition to inspections and other actions. In this way any citizen can access the data .. What is a Quality Control program of life of rivers.
Eduardo Maurin (Councillor Hurlingham) wants to know about the IDB loan, and the percentage set for each of the areas.
Marina Parra argues that it should create parallel organizations. Methodologically Acumar does parallel instances. Municipalities have no money for inspections and today is doing AYSA.
Anselmi The Architect Mara explains that in the field of COMIREC meetings are being held with all agencies: ABSA, ADA, OPDS. Add that with the completion of loan IDB to project and to operate a network of river monitoring.
ACEN De Moreno. For the Municipality of Moreno, only 5 industries that pollute. Others are not controlled. Councilman
Costs: We have little competition, since according to the degree of industry is:
Category 1 º If you can the municipality. Category 2 º can
little.
Category 3 No No can do nothing.
For the next meeting of the CCL, Olmedo
proposes the following topics: 1, Arm
an agenda to determine how we produce and coordinate plans and actions in each municipality.
2 º How to implement the participation of all Advisory Councils Media Basin.
3 º How to incorporate the universities, professionals and technicians. As the 14
Hs closed the meeting.
The next meeting of Cuenca Media Day is set for February 22, 2011 at 10 am in the town of Morón.
The Reconquista, like the Creek, is one of the most polluted rivers in the country. Its basin covers about 1670 square miles and runs along 18 games in the province of Buenos Aires before emptying into the River Lujan.
