said it was "extremely legitimate and appropriate" to ask The geyser of The Geysers have this nomination, while early adoption called the creation of the Ministry of Environment.
A draft agreement to ask the President to declare as a Natural Monument and Nature Sanctuary in the geysers of The Geysers, senators had different sectors led by José Antonio Gómez (PRSD), as part of a special session of the Senate discuss the environmental damage caused by the work of prospecting Northern Geothermal Company (EGN).
The Environment Committee will be responsible for agreeing the text of the draft agreement that already found a good acceptance among government representatives.
"Of course you are going to pay attention to the draft agreement, because this is a place that from an environmental point of view and tourism is of great significance, therefore looks remarkably legitimate and appropriate to the approach, "said Environment Minister Ana Lya Uriarte.
The initiative should also seek the views of senators in the sense that the incident should not call into question the diversification of energy mix, particularly in the development of geothermal energy.
Uriarte pointed to the need to pass in Congress the law creating the Ministry of the Environment, noting that senators should be "consistent", calling that none of those who criticized the situation arising today in The Geysers, many of them pointing to the lack of control, rejected the initiative.
"The bill creates the Ministry states that the bills when they enter the system development of environmental impact must explain how that is compatible with other activities such as tourism," he said.
The Minister referred in this way to the initiative that created the Ministry, the Department of Environmental Assessment and Environmental Superintendent, pending the Commission's specialized and received more than 1,300 signs, although provides a new regulatory framework .
