ResumenLos mercados de agua son unos instrumentos habilitados desde la Administración para minorar las presiones ejercidas sobre el escaso recurso. Cuentan con una importante regulación jurídica, que ha sido objeto de análisis y estudio por diversos expertos, también se ha evaluado su impacto económico, pero no han sido analizados de forma particular con el mismo interés los aspectos medioambientales que su implementación podría ocasionar tanto sobre las cuencas cedentes como receptoras. Por otra parte, la carestía del recurso hídrico en muchas zonas de España condiciona el uso de aguas regeneradas previamente tratadas, como fuente complementaria al regadío. En este trabajo se plantean los impactos ambientales que la puesta en marcha de un mercado de agua origina con especial énfasis en la transferencia de aguas que proceden de tratamiento y por la realización de infraestructuras. AbstractWater markets are a fitted out instruments from the Administration in order to minimize the applied pressures over this limited resource. They include an important legal regulation. This legal regulation has been analysed and studied from different experts. Moreover, its economic impact has been evaluated. Nevertheless, the environmental aspects about its implementation in the assignment basins and the receptor basins have not been particularly analysed. In the other hand, the lack of water resources in several Spanish zones determines the use of regenerated water previously treated as a complementary source for irrigation. In this work, the environmental impacts of the start-up of a water market are presented. Specifically, the impacts about water transfer from treatment and the development of infrastructures are remarked.
