As of this week, the Roses Marina has three electric vehicle charging stations, one of which is adapted for vehicles for people with reduced mobility, and a linked charging station, all of which are now operational.

The Port of Roses has once again validated the ISO14001: 2015 and EMAS certifications accrediting its good environmental management, after successfully passing the renewal process of both certificates.

The Standing Committee on Drought of the Catalan Water Agency has declared a state of alert for hydrological drought in the Darnius-Boadella reservoir, to which the municipality of Roses is attached. It implies the application of different restrictions, which will not affect drinking water but will affect different agricultural, livestock, industrial, recreational and domestic uses.

Last Sunday, 16th October, the Bay of Roses Club organised the 19th Seabed Clean-up, an annual event held in collaboration with the Roses Marina and the City Council's Department of the Environment, which on this occasion removed a total of 370 kg of waste from the seabed of the Roses harbour.

The thirty or so participants were joined by a further twenty in the global Clean4Change waste collection initiative.
Around fifty people took part in the waste collection that took place in the Riera de la Quana, Riera Ginjolers and Riera de la Trencada in Roses.

CLEAN4CHANGE 2022, a waste collection event open to all those who wish to participate in this worldwide event, will be held in Roses on 18 September. The activity is organised by TOMRA, a multinational company in the recycling sector based in Roses, with the collaboration of Roses ZeroPlàstics, Cabirols, Club Atletisme de Roses and Port de Roses.

- The intervention will be carried out with the collaboration of the City Council of Roses, the Port of Roses and the Natural Park of Cabo de Creus.

- It is part of SUBMON's Underwater Forests project, which has the support of Bonpreu and Esclat and Worldcoo through the Solidarity Rounding campaign.

The service is carried out on all the beaches and urban coves of the municipality, i.e. Almadrava, Canyelles, Bonifaci, Palangrers, La Punta, La Nova, El Rastrell, Salatar and Santa Margarita, as well as on all the stretches of slope that run between them.

It has included in the request the project for the installation of ecological dead bodies between Canyelles and Jóncols cove and the action would involve an investment of 888,000 euros.

This morning a new meeting of the monitoring committee of the Accessibility Plan for the Cap de Creus Natural Park was held in Roses. Created last year on the occasion of the application of the new measures for vehicle access to the park during the summer, the commission's objective is to coordinate these measures, attending to and anticipating all the needs of the population during the season, from public safety to aspects related to economic activity and tourist services.
