Can you build a house on rustic land?

Ley 9/2001, art. 29. A town plan can be stricter.
Plan in force: Normas Subsidiarias (an older, simpler plan), from 1992. The region's planning viewer ↗
The national urban information system (SIU) maps the land class for 100% of the municipality.
Only the town hall can confirm it, in writing: ask for a certificado urbanístico.
Is there water?
No well or borehole is recorded in La Hiruela. That is not proof there is no water: ask local drillers. One spring is recorded.
Ground: 98% practically impermeable.
Choosing where to drill takes a hydrogeologist.
