The Rivers Project is an initiative by Habitat Association that aims to discover the rivers of Catalonia and its ecosystems, how they work, how we can find the bodies, the importance of environmental problems and suffering. These inspections, which are made twice a year, spring and autumn, consist of a study of physical and chemical parameters and biological parameters of the river. The IES Antonia Torroja has its checkpoint of Ondara river near Granyanella, past the treatment of Cervera. The students observed that the Ondara is a river with little diversity of wildlife and vegetation. However, the conclusion of the inspection was that the river Ondara, at this point, has symptoms of disease.
