The President of the Government, Pere Aragonès, has demanded this Friday

"explanations and rectification" of Aena's project to

affect the protected natural area of ​​La Ricarda with the extension of the third runway at the Barcelona-El Prat Airport.

After this noon the airport manager presented to the Airport Coordination Commission of Catalonia the Airport Regulation Document (DORA), in which it contemplates an extension of the third runway to the east that

"would affect areas of the Natura 2000 Network"

, Aragonès has assured that the document "does not reflect the consensus established within the Government".

The president's words, collected in two messages on his Twitter account, collide with the opinion of sources from the Department of Territory of the Generalitat, who have assured EFE that

the meeting has ended without news regarding the concrete solution for expand the El Prat airport

, since the formula for lengthening the third runway will be defined in the master plan.

"The DORA of Aena that has been made public today does not reflect the consensus established within the Government: to

ensure the investment without considering anything closed

and to define the next steps with a broad agreement of all the administrations," said Aragonès.

He then added:

"We demand explanations and the rectification of a DORA that damages the protected area of ​​La Ricarda

. Every step that is taken must include a consensus commitment. Preserving natural spaces is not an option, it is a non-negotiable obligation. ".
