Abstract
The urbano growth of settlements located on debris and deyecta, in the Peninsular Southeast, was often carried out, using, as part of the urban structure, ravines and gullies which became operative only in case of highly intensive rains. In clear contrast to the past adaptation of the new urban structure to the conditions imposed by the water beds, due to the respect and clear awareness of their very nature, we are confronted, nowadays with the total inadaptation of the towns to said conditions. This entails a series of serious problems which appear whenever these water beds are recovering their function because of heave rainfalls.
