East Saturday November 26 various communities of the capital city and San Miguelito will be without water because the Federico Guardia Conte water treatment plant in Chilibre will stop its operations so that technical personnel can carry out maintenance work from 6:00 am to 3:00 pm
According to the Institute of National Aqueducts and Sewers (IDAAN), during the work, divers will enter the raw water intake to check the lower gates, inspect the treated water suction tanks and maintain the 115 KV electrical substation. ,.
This will cause a lack of supply in the high points of the capital city and San Miguelitoexcept for the sectors of Calidonia, Santa Ana, San Felipe, El Chorrillo and reverted areas that are supplied by the Miraflores water treatment plant.
The IDAAN highlighted that they will supply the Hospitals, Polyclinics and Health Centers of the capital, Tocumen, San Miguelito and Chilibre through tank cars. In addition, the coverage of the Miraflores water treatment plant will be expanded to guarantee supply to the Dr. Arnulfo Arias Madrid Metropolitan Hospital Complex.
