As reported by the council of Celebration, Antonio Valero, after the meeting held this week with law enforcement and emergency location, and the Department of Public Safety, the City Council has decided as a precautionary measure and exceptionally this year , relocate the site of the launch of the fireworks end party, so that instead of jumping from the Castillo de Jumilla, will move to nearby sports center, given the level of high alert for fire risk that Autonomous Community has decreed.
As evidenced by the numbers of emergency and the fire station of Jumilla, the southern peninsula is in "extreme risk" of fire as a result of high temperatures and scarce rainfall recorded.
Therefore, as a preventive measure and sticking to the directions of the Community and of the bodies of public safety, launching fireworks scheduled for Sunday, August 24, will be relocated near the sports center, thus avoiding the possible contact with the arid pyrotechnics mountain where the Castillo de Jumilla is located.
"This is an exceptional measure, in order to preserve the integrity of the site, since the alert fire risk is high, and recommendations indicate that the launch will relocate" he stated about Antonio Valero, who also has nuanced, "the change of location does not affect the performance of classical fireworks to be launched as normal from the Municipal Sports Center Hoya".
