The minimum flow is about 2 m3/s, set by the Confederación Hidrográfica del Duero. The concern about this reach was due to shore erosion and the lack of refuge for trout. In order to mitigate the impact of flow regulation and to improve the aquatic habitat for fish, several actions took place both instream and at the riparian zone: Boulders (limestone) were placed in the riverbed for improve the instream structure and habitat diversity; reforestation of the margins with four live fences; reforestation with single stakes; plantation of 170 stakes (75 % Salix fragilis and 25% of Salix purpurea and Salix atrocinerea); construction of a wing deflector consisting of stones, logs, and branch cuttings of willow and aquatic plants for its stabilization; plantation of branch cuttings and stakes of willow at stable margins to give shading and shelter for the trouts. The effectiveness of the project was monitored by the Junta de Castilla y León almost until 1999. The evolution of trout population was measured with periodic samplings (electrofishing).
