The studies carried out to demonstrate that the project complied with the requirements stated in the Environmental Impact Statement, and also included:

- A Landscape Recovery and Integration Plan for areas to be intervened, and

- A monitoring program for aquatic and riparian ecosystems, including water quality, riparian vegetation, the benthic macro invertebrates, fish species and the mole waterline.
