Let's all play a part in our safety in the face of flood risk. Thursday November 7at 6 p.m., at the Parc-de-Thel complex in Vinassan, Mayor Didier Aldebert invites the population to a meeting with the Smmar (Mixed Union of Aquatic Environments and Rivers), aimed at informing the population of good behavior to be adopted in the event of heavy rain, as well as the various means available to protect inhabited property and people from the risk of flooding.
The recent events recently suffered by various departments in the south-east and those tragic events experienced in recent days in Spain are irrefutable proof of the worsening risks linked to climate change.
The department has already, in recent decades, suffered floods with painful consequences. Since then, measures have been taken to protect the population as best as possible. However, given climate change, vigilance and prevention are essential. There are two types of risks on Vinassan. Floods by submersion and those by runoff.
The meeting scheduled several weeks ago with Smmar should allow everyone to be fully informed of the measures to be taken.
