The Institute of National Aqueducts and Sewers (IDAAN) communicates that on Thursday, May 25, the Jaime Díaz Quintero water treatment plant will operate at 50% of its capacity for cleaning work in sedimentators #1 and #2 to guarantee the quality of drinking water and improvements in plant production.
The work will be carried out from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and will affect the water service with low pressures in the township of Barrio Colon downtown and lack of supply in the townships of Guadalupe, El Coco, Playa Leona and Puerto Caimito in the district of La Chorrera, in turn the Corregimiento Juan Demóstenes Arosemena and part of Vista Alegre in the district of Arraiján will be without service.
All necessary measures will be taken to attend sensitive points such as hospitals in La Chorrera and Arraiján that are affected through tank cars.
IDAAN apologizes and recommends making rational use of water to avoid shortages during the time that the works last and the system recovers.
