Residents are tired of the situation of not having water 24/7. The IDAAN reported that the area's water treatment plant is only operating at 45% of its capacity due to the turbidity of the raw water, caused by heavy rains. The most affected sectors include Montemadero, Castilla Real, Pacora, Tanara, and Paso Blanco. Additionally, IDAAN will carry out work at the Roberto Reyna plant in Chitré from 8:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., reducing water production by 50%. Residents of Pacora will again face water cuts this Thursday. High and distant areas will suffer from cuts or low pressure.
