Por FactBox Admin
The Provincial Coast Service of Pontevedra, dependent on the Ministry for the Ecological Transition, has submitted for public information file CNC12/26/36/0001, relating to a plot of approximately 2,096 square meters with ruined buildings located in the dune area of Nerga beach, in the municipality of Cangas do Morrazo. The announcement was published in the Official Gazette of the Province of Pontevedra (BOPPO) no. 180, on Friday, September 18, 2026, within the State Administration section. The procedure, lasting twenty business days, seeks to determine the rights that may correspond in application of the First Transitional Provision of the Coast Law.
The procedure affects an area that has already been declared part of the maritime-terrestrial public domain through the demarcation approved by O.M. of January 17, 2005. The invoked regulation is article 152 of Royal Decree 876/2014, of October 10, by which the General Coast Regulations are approved, which requires opening a period of public exhibition before resolving the rights of the occupants. The First Transitional Provision of the Coast Law specifically regulates the situation of occupations and buildings prior to the delimitation of the public domain, and this file aims to specify what rights, if any, correspond to the owners of the plot.
Characteristics of the plot and the building
According to the announcement, the plot is “undeveloped and without traces of fencing” and contains a ruined building whose dimensions are detailed in the file:
- Semi-basement: 50 square meters.
- Ground floor: dwelling of 92 square meters.
- Of the 92 square meters of the dwelling, 18.30 correspond to the porch and stairs.
The total area of the plot, approximately 2,096 square meters, is located within the maritime-terrestrial public domain as a result of the 2005 demarcation, which prompts the review of the rights that may assist its owners.
Deadline, consultation, and allegations
The public information period is twenty (20) business days and begins to count from the day following the publication of the announcement. During this period, any interested party may examine the documentation existing in the file and present the allegations and observations they deem appropriate.
- The documentation is available on the Ministry’s portal, at the public participation link of the file.
- Allegations shall be presented in accordance with the mechanisms of Law 39/2015, of October 1, on the Common Administrative Procedure.
- They are addressed to the Provincial Coast Service of Pontevedra, at rúa San José, no. 6, 36071 Pontevedra (identification code EA0043362).
- It is possible to use the electronic General Registry with a valid certificate or electronic ID.
The announcement was signed in Pontevedra on September 15, 2026, by the head of the Provincial Coast Service, Miguel García García, and bears the secure verification code 4Z6AF8XPKFNLZEAN.
Relevance
The opening of this procedure directly affects the owners or holders of rights to the plot and the building in Nerga, who now have a window of twenty business days to defend their position before the Coast Service issues a resolution. The case illustrates the practical application of the First Transitional Provision of the Coast Law on lands included in the public domain due to old boundary demarcations, a frequent situation on the Rías Baixas coastline.
