30,000 fish and crabs die from spills in sixteen rivers of Álava

  • Zadorra Bizirik analyzed the data provided by the Department of Agriculture of the Provincial Council of Álava between 2012 and 2018. No more cases have been investigated since 2019, but ecologists have denounced a landfill registered at Zadorra on 5 August.

Last Monday, the Zadorra Bizirik platform denounced the ecological disaster in Gipuzkoa. The discharges recorded between 2012 and 2018 have caused the death of nearly 30,000 fish and crabs in sixteen rivers in the province of Álava. Zadorra, Arakil and Nerbioi have suffered the most damage: five, four and three discharges, respectively. Baia was the only one left in the vacuum of the sitting.

The citizen platform has been based on several studies by the Department of Agriculture of the Provincial Council of Álava to provide these data. The annual report on the management of fish fauna lists a number of cases of fish killed by discharges between 2014 and 2017. In another report published in 2019, the dossiers opened between 2012 and 2018 for mortality and fish emissions from rivers have been investigated.

In the absence of data between 2019 and 2021, the platform has denounced a landfill registered at Zadorra on 5 August of this year. As in the two cases recorded on July 28, 2012 and July 31, 2015, ecologists say it happened in the same part of the river. They have also been critical of the measures taken to solve the problem: “We don’t know how many sanctioning dossiers have been opened by these spills, but we think they haven’t been many.”
