Sunass Supervises Southern Lima Water Outage Response as Sedapal Deploys Tankers

Repairs at the Provisur plant could take up to five days, Sunass says.

Overview

  • An electrical failure at the Provisur water treatment plant cut service to Punta Hermosa, Punta Negra, San Bartolo and Santa María del Mar, affecting more than 9,000 users.
  • Sunass began field inspections and formally ordered Sedapal to ensure supply via tanker trucks and to give clear, timely schedules and locations for distribution.
  • Sedapal activated a contingency plan with 19 to 20 tanker trucks providing free water deliveries that prioritize health centers and vulnerable residents, coordinated with district municipalities.
  • Tedagua technicians are working around the clock at the Provisur plant under Sedapal oversight, and regulator records indicate full restoration could take up to five days.
  • Separate from the outage, Sedapal’s scheduled maintenance cuts continue Sunday in parts of San Juan de Lurigancho, Lurigancho, Santa Anita and La Molina with posted hours.
