Pass the salt please

The Consejo de Administración de la Nueva Compañía Arrendataria de las Salinas de Torrevieja (NCAST), that manages the operation of the salt lagoon under administrative concession from the State, has recently approved an investment of over a million Euros to introduce improvements to the facilities for salt production in Torrevieja.

This is apparently just the first phase. There are plans to spend a further one million Euros  in a second phase. Of course, the cold winter and spring  helped the company in these difficult times by increasing demand for salt for the roads. Production at the plant currently exceeds 700,000 tons of salt.
