Physical progress of over 70 percent has been achieved in the major infrastructure project aimed at improving the drinking water supply systems in the Máncora and Los Órganos regions of northern Peru. Carried out with an investment of over 14 million Soles (approximately 3.7 million dollars), the project is fully financed by OTASS (Technical Organization for the Management of Sanitary Services).

Key components of the project implemented by EPS Grau include the construction of a new pump station, the drilling of two new water wells in the Fernández valley, and the construction of a modern metal water tank. Additionally, approximately 728 meters of new pumping line will be laid and a 3,000-cubic-meter-capacity tank will be built.

Once completed, this project is expected to guarantee the continuity of water supply and reduce drought risks in two important tourist centers of the region. The new infrastructure will significantly improve the quality of life for over 30 thousand residents by meeting the increased population and water demand, especially during peak tourism seasons.
