The flood plan has been revised, the Maccheronis dam will be able to contain more water

The Maccheronis dam will be able to hold more water .

This is provided for by a resolution of the regional council that increases the maximum level of the reservoir from 35 to 40.5 meters . The famous and contested flood control plan is therefore being revised, partially and temporarily, which does not allow, despite the fact that many safety measures have been carried out, to fill the Torpè dam to the maximum.

The executive's decision comes after requests made by the mayors of the area and the heads of the Central Sardinia Land Reclamation Consortium, according to whom "it was absurd to think of discharging water into the sea after this year's very serious water crisis."
In fact, for Bassa Gallura and Baronia 2024 was marked by heavy restrictions due to the prolonged drought with the reservoir reaching just 300 thousand cubic meters, against a capacity of over twenty million.

Even today, the emergency cannot be said to be over. In fact, rationing remains in force, especially for the countryside where irrigation is still not possible.
