📋 Tender Overview
The PECHP initiates prevention actions to preserve the functionality of the structure of the Sojo siphon.With the aim of strengthening the hydraulic infrastructure of the South Canal and preventing interruptions in the distribution of water resource, the Piura Regional Government, through the Special Project Chira Piura (PECHP) began the protection work of the SOJO Siphon, with the purpose of benefiting hundreds of families in the Center Poblado Macacara, located in the district of La Huaca, province of Paita.
The work in charge of the Directorate of Works of the PECHP, began after identifying a undercutting process in the highstream section of the siphon, due to the constant flow of the Chira river water. For this reason, the intervention contemplates the placement of gavions (meshes with rocks) in a length of 80 meters, which will strengthen irrigation in more than 6 thousand hectares of crops.
These works respond to preventive action and are part of a maintenance plan to preserve functionality and prevent possible damage to the structure of the Sojo Sifon. In this way, works with heavy machinery are executed to enable the necessary accesses and facilitate the entry of dump trucks with stones. This is how it will be allowed to contain erosion that will guarantee the stability of the siphon against the dynamics of the channel.
It should be noted that the execution period is 45 calendar days and has a contracting amount of 961,925.42 soles under the responsibility of the Sojo Consortium and the supervision with an amount of 70,552.9 soles, by H&H Consultoria in Engineering and Construction SAC.
Once again, the Special Project Chira Piura demonstrates its commitment to the maintenance and strengthening of regional hydraulic infrastructure, prioritizing water security and well -being of farmers.
