The 'boom' of the golf courses resist the ravages of the real estate crisis
Promoters are continuing with the 27 projects that are under construction or in the pipeline for Sustainable Development A law shall fix the minimum distance that should exist between plant
The golf passes to the crisis. At least for now. Despite the halt of the construction activity and the fall in the sale of homes, the development of golf courses continues in the region, which has 27 projects in the pipeline or under construction, and for which the Ministry of Sustainable Development last A law that will make the minimum standards of quality and safety.
The current status of the matter is as follows: Region of Murcia has 14 golf courses in operation, 8 under construction, 3 more that have already received the environmental impact statement in favor and 16 others in the pipeline for approval, according to data Sustainable Development. None of the developers and municipalities interested in its construction has given up on them, although the real estate crisis has already served one year since the outbreak of the case of junk mortgages.
All projects approved and golf courses in the pipeline (41) have the necessary authorization for irrigation, which is the first instance to play and that gave the Hydrographic Confederation of Segura.

The water scarcity in the region also poses an impediment to this activity. A field of 18 holes requires an average of 400,000 cubic meters of water a year, and planned consumption for the 41 fields in play and pipeline in the region would barely 1% of the volume of water that is used in agriculture, according maintains the Ministry of Sustainable Development.
However, the general tone in the fields in operation is the use of water purified from human consumption. The intent of the Department is using the law to regulate the golf courses to manage the sector and establish some basic criteria of quality. "We want the urbanization of the environment to adapt to the minimum quality that must have the golf course, not vice versa", said the director general of 27 projects underway

The region is already an example in the sustainable management of golf courses and respect for the natural environment, but the new law will allow us to move further in this activity, which transcends the sport and to make a strong influence in other areas such as tourism, recreation and economy. "
Technical Workshop
Merchant added that his advice "will not hinder the development of golf in the region, provided they are carried out the necessary formalities, they meet the established criteria and environmental requirements, and obtained the award of the Hydrographic Confederation for the use in irrigation water requirements.
