To achieve this, work is being done, among other things, at <\/span>to solve the marine intrusion in the regenerated water treatment system, since this water is pumped back from the lowest points, close to the sea, where the intrusion occurs.<\/p>\n The Finca Cortes\u00edn course, where the 2023 Solheim Cup will be played the week of September 18 to 24, is one of the courses on the Costa del Sol that is 100% irrigated with reclaimed water and, last year, received the Acosol seal of quality accrediting it as the first course to be recognized for its good practices in the use of reclaimed water for irrigation.<\/p>\n -What does it mean for the entity of which you are CEO that the 2023 Solheim Cup will be played on a course that is 100 percent irrigated with the reclaimed water that you provide?<\/strong><\/p>\n This is a top-level sporting event, the most important in the world of women\u2019s golf, which is being played in our country for the first time. It also has and promotes a sustainability profile. It conveys the message that golf is a sport that cares for the environment. <\/p>\n That is why it is so important that Finca Cortes\u00edn uses for irrigation the water that was previously used in our homes. It is an example for everyone and also of adaptation to the circumstances, to an area that has less and less rainfall. <\/p>\n -It is important that Finca Cortes\u00edn is irrigated only with reclaimed water because this implies that it can be done and that it is not necessary to use other resources\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n Of course, and also have a course in perfect maintenance conditions, where you can make an event as important as the Solheim Cup, which is very rigorous <\/span>and requires a series of requirements that this Malaga course meets in its entirety and which allows you to compete with any other club in the world.<\/p>\n The future of golf undoubtedly lies in recycled water and all courses that can receive it are obliged to irrigate with it.<\/p>\n On the Costa del Sol, about fifty fields have the possibility of using this water, since they have the necessary connections.<\/p>\n -The law requires irrigation with reclaimed water whenever possible\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n -Yes, the law obliges everyone, except in the circumstance that the regenerated water that is served, for whatever reason, and punctually, is not of sufficient quality, or they do not have this resource nearby. It also gives the possibility that when there are high levels of salinity in the water, the greens can be \u201cwashed\u201d with another type of non-potable water. <\/p>\n -It is important what you pointed out: \u201cquality water\u201d. Is Acosol serving water of sufficient quality for irrigation of golf courses? <\/strong><\/p>\n -Our objective now is to provide at least 60 percent of the fields with very good water. We only have a problem in some points of Marbella and Estepona because the pipeline is submerged in the sea and that causes some infiltration of saline water. The idea is that the Junta de Andaluc\u00eda immediately undertakes the works to solve this and that we remain at 1,200 or 1,500 of conductivity, which is the right water for irrigation. <\/p>\n We are also working on controlling the levels of nitrogen and sodium that the water must have to be absolutely perfect. Our commitment is to enhance tertiary treatment to make it so, which eliminates pathogens and allows sprinkler irrigation. <\/p>\n \u201cI would like to point out,\u201d concludes Manuel Carde\u00f1a, \u201cthat the golf courses are going to make available to the general supply the registered wells they have.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Acosol is the public company belonging to the Association of Municipalities of the Western Costa del Sol (Benahavis, Benalm\u00e1dena, Casares, Estepona, Fuengirola, Ist\u00e1n, Manilva, Marbella, Mijas, Oj\u00e9n and Torremolinos) that manages the integral water cycle.
