Only 50 Km away from the Mendoza capital, in the area of Lujan de Cuyo, Potrerillos is the favorite spot by the inhabitants of the province for a weekend getaway. John Savignano brings even more insight to the discussion. The trip between the city and Potrerillos already constitutes a real festival for the view.

This organism also alluded to the possibility of a landslide slopes product of climatic changes as a result of global warming, questioning that he is not done a study of the Tabo river flood. This River is that presents risk. The assessment of the risk of flooding in river Tabo is important because of its connection with the Lake Los Palos, then Puerto Aysen. Is requested, explicitly, assess the danger and subsequent risk by flooding of the riverbed of the Tabo River under the following conditions: i) tsunami in the Yulton Lake-Meullin United (taking the final reservoir at 526 m a.s.l.); (ii) increase in particle size by cold lahars (surface runoff of tefras by heavy rains); (iii) possible to drain from the reservoir by the Tabo River. In addition, take into account areas involved in possible dams generated in el Tabo River. You are asked to evaluate the points in which the riverbed of the River Tabo decreases (geomorphological analysis), area with probability of generating dams. For his part multiple public services (municipality and governorship of Aysen, Seremi of housing and urbanism, transport Seremi, among others) left in evidence that the company did not assess the impact on the human environment in property and therefore took no measures of compensation, repair or mitigation associated with this component. For those who question the initiative this would mean that adoption of the draft multiple effects could occur in social terms (delinquency, prostitution, drug addiction, road and health insecurity).

In this regard particularly housing noted that the baseline is insufficient to evaluate the project with missing indexes of criminality, alcoholism, drug addiction, of morbidity, number of dwellings, between other essential background. Meanwhile, the national service of tourism noted expressly that it lacks the EIA with an integrating vision and that it recognizes the existence of 13 attractions registered by Sernatur in the area of direct influence of the project, without determining how these attractions may be affected or favored by works or activities of the projects at various stages (construction, operation and abandonment). On the possible damage that the project could cause to the tourism image of the region, is recommended a study by energy Austral tending to measure and clarify this impact, which evidently of not generating the negative effects that advance attributed to him on the regional tourist image. At the same time expressed the Undersecretary of fisheries concern meddling of the red tide in inland areas of the Aysen fjord product of the eventual construction of the Cuervo River Dam. There will be a period during filling of 15 to 24 months in which the fjord will receive only the amount corresponding to 3 m 3/s of fresh water, generating an increase locally and temporarily salinity. This can generate an intrusion into the interior of the fjord, saline pen. The importance of the foregoing lies in that the presence of the harmful microalga Alexandrium catenella on the fjord is limited by salinity. The holder must analyze this situation, modeling the probable intrusion of Alexandrium catenella more internal sectors of the estuary and establish measures of mitigation or repair. These are some of the questions that must respond energy Austral in the addendum entered Thursday after 10 months of work, taking public services from the moment in which such compendium receive 15 working days to make further comments on these or other matters.
