Palamós, in Girona, has brought its wastewater treatment plant back into service after repairs to damage caused by Storm Harry in January. The facility is now operational ahead of the summer season.
Local officials said the work was completed before the busy period because of the plant’s size and its role in the sanitation system of Baix Empordà. They described it as strategic infrastructure for the area.
The repairs mean the sanitation system in Baix Empordà is fully functional again before the peak tourist months. That is important for public health and environmental protection in the area.
Storm Harry caused disruption across Catalonia earlier in the year, and the Palamós plant was among the facilities affected. For more local coverage, see our news page.
