Can you build a house on rustic land?

Ley 11/2018, art. 70. A town plan can be stricter.
Plan in force: Normas Subsidiarias (an older, simpler plan), from 2006. 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?
IGME records 8 wells and boreholes in Monroy. Half of the 8 with a depth found water at 42–46 m. One spring is recorded.
Ground: 61% practically impermeable; 39% low permeability, local groundwater only.
Choosing where to drill takes a hydrogeologist.
