Rincón de la Victoria town hall on the eastern Costa del Sol has put out to tender a contract from the provision of cleaning and ... clearing services for municipal plots of land and public paths, with the aim of maintaining hygiene, preventing pests and fires, as well as the removal of waste from the El Cantal cliffs in La Cala del Moral.

The contract includes two lots of work: the first for the tidying up of the areas specified in the tender and the second to be carried out in El Cantal where, during the first month, a "thorough clean-up" is required, while ensuring that areas where Limonium malacitanum, also known as the Malaga perenial are not affected.

It is a perennial plant with stalks that can grown up to 40 centimetres long and is a native species found along the Malaga and Granada coastline, from Torremolinos to Punta de la Mona in Almuñécar. It grows exclusively on very sunny, dry coastal crags and cliffs almost at sea level and relies on the salt spray from the waves for its survival.
