Can you build a house on rustic land?

The SIU does not map land classes here: the town plan is the source.
Only the town hall can confirm it, in writing: ask for a certificado urbanístico.
Is there water?
No well or borehole is recorded in Hinojares. That is not proof there is no water: ask local drillers. 6 springs are recorded.
Ground: 69% low permeability, local groundwater only; 16% practically impermeable; 10% porous aquifer, medium productivity.
Choosing where to drill takes a hydrogeologist.
