The Scientific Committee of the Special Plan for Civil Protection and Emergency Attention due to Volcanic Risk (PEVOLCA) meeting today Sunday has recommended to the Plan’s Steering Committee the preventive evacuation of the population at risk, after verifying that the seismic activity has reached the maximum since the start of the swarm on La Palma. Based on this information, the Steering Committee has decided to start evacuating, as a priority, people with reduced mobility in the population centres of Las Manchas (Las Manchas de Abajo, Jedey, San Nicolás and El Paraíso), which includes the municipalities of El Paso and Los Llanos de Aridane; El Charco (Fuencaliente), La Bombilla (Los Llanos de Aridane and Tazacorte) and El Remo and Puerto Naos (Los Llanos de Aridane). However, the traffic light system remains yellow, although civil protection actions are intensified (IGN, 2021).
