No Holiday Water Cut-offs: CAPAMA

(Acapulco, AN 10 December) Acapulco’s water authority, CAPAMA, reports that no suspensions of water service are planned for the holiday period; however, rationing to the communities in the upland parts of the city will continue. Even though most employees go on vacation at the end of the year, a skeleton crew will remain to be able to handle emergencies, said Mireya Valle Tostado, spokesperson for the entity. “CAPAMA has inspected all the main pipelines and has found everything to be in order. There are no large leaks that could mean a reduction in water supply,” she said. The hotel zone will not be affected by water shortages at all, according to Ms. Valle, and the upper regions of the amphitheater of Acapulco will have rationed supplies. Both administrative and operational personnel will be on holiday.
