The planned investment amounts to EUR 960,000 plus VAT.
This agreement provides for the placement of a pipeline of 3,000 meters with a diameter of 500 mm, to provide service to irrigators in the town of Alhama de Murcia, on the border with the municipality of Murcia, who have called for the provision of 1 hm3 year from the desalination Valdelentisco.
The Section III consists of a pipeline that, starting from the core leadership of the section II, extends over 19,600 meters (over 3,000 meters future) with pipe between 500 and 900 mm in diameter, up to near the town of Murcia.
At the end of it has implemented a raft of 500,000 m3 of capacity, and in the future could serve, from this point, the metropolitan area of Murcia.

The Valdelentisco desalination is prepared to produce up to 70 cubic hectometres (hm 3), although since 2007 and supplies 20 per year for urban supply hm3 (tipped higher production in summer), and since this past summer, 15 hm3 for agricultural use.
