In Ogliastra the drought emergency continues to worsen . The lack of rainfall, for some time now, has been causing water levels to collapse in the Bau Muggeris (Flumendosa ) reservoir.

This was reported by the regional agency of the river basin district on the basis of data from the monthly report, underlining that "the foreseen mitigation measures must be activated".

The Villagrande dam , built towards the end of the 1940s, has a flow rate of 56.62 million cubic meters of water and as of last November 30th (last report date) there were 16.95 available , while 20.65 per cent less than in the penultimate survey of 31 October. Basically a third of the authorized flow capacity.

As of November 30, 2021, the dam held 43.81 million of water. In one year the reservoir of the Alto Flumendosa has reduced the stocks of 26.86 million of water.

The only comforting data for the area remains the condition of the Santa Lucia dam , where the reservoir is at maximum capacity.
