	The main objective of this project is to restore the river Arga natural floodplain by removing the dyke and increasing the fluvial territory. There are other secondary objectives: to increase the quality of habitat in Community Interest Areas, with special attention to European mink (Mustela lutreola); creating new habitats for otter (Lutra lutra) and European turtle (Emys orbicularis); quality improvement of habitats 92A0 (willow and black poplar plantation) and 92D0 (tamarisk plantation); spatial planning for cattle.
