The Deltebre Town Council expressed its indignation after the Directorate General of Coasts published a new coastal demarcation file in the BOE affecting 63,450 meters of coastline.

The Deltebre council was surprised by the publication of the new maritime-terrestrial public domain boundary file in the Official State Gazette (BOE) this Wednesday, issued by the Directorate General of Coasts in Tarragona. The initiation of the file was dictated on January 13, opening a one-month period for submitting allegations.
Mayor Lluís Soler denounced that the proposal is "the same" as the one presented in July 2023, which had already been rejected, without considering the allegations and observations submitted by local councils, entities, and citizens during previous phases.

"The investment of temporary and economic resources has been totally discredited with this new proposal."

Soler described the new boundary as a "threat to Deltebre and the Ebro Delta," criticizing the lack of consensus. The council insists that the demarcation makes no sense without first agreeing on measures to protect the morphological coastline, which suffers constant erosion, in line with the Consensus Table Delta Plan.
The Mayor announced that next week he will convene the Deltebre Territory Defense Council to decide "with the entities and the citizenry" the actions to be taken against this document, which is the same one they previously rejected.
