Drainage works are undertaken (guard gutters, underpasses, fords, overpasses, inlets, sewer upgrades); the repair of siphons; the repair of tunnels (cleaning, reinforcement of slab, vault lining, drains, nozzles); the residual cleaning in the canal; the repair of slabs and boxes; waterproofing and joint treatments; Covering of channel sections with slab; and finally, heightening of the section. A new tunnel of 1,600.16 m is also constructed to suppress a section of the canal located on an unstable slope; a drain that allows a 100 m gap between the canal and outlet, protecting the slope by means of a gabion wall: a new weir at the foot of the dam allows the release, if necessary, of a flow of 72 m3/s. Likewise, a modernization of the exploitation and control of the canal is undertaken through the replacement of the current intake systems, automation and remote control thereof, including the construction of a control center.
