📋 Tender Overview
In Viru, drain cleaning, technological support and improvement of irrigation infrastructure will be carried outWithin the framework of the Agreement between the Regional Government of La Libertad (GORE), the CHAVIMOCHIC Special Project (PECH) and the Irrigation User Boards (JUR) of the valleys of Chao, Viru, Moche and Chicama and Pressurized Irrigation, signed on September 24; the manager of PECH, Eng. Jhon Cabrera Carlos, accompanied by officials of the institution and directors of the Irrigation User Board of Viru, including Mr. Robert Garcia Silvestre (President of the JUR - Viru), Eng. Percy Alfaro, manager of the JUR Viru, and Eng. Luis Limo (Local Water Authority - ALA Trujillo - Viru - Moche), made a technical visit to said valley in order to determine what support activities can be carried out for the improvement of family agriculture, reported the manager of the irrigation of La Libertad.
Following the request of the Regional Governor, Cesar Acuna, we are carrying out a technical field visit to the Viru valley, with the purpose of establishing the activities that we are going to implement in order to specify our support to the User Boards of this valley, to resolve aspects in their fields that need to be improved. On this occasion we are in Dren 4, and we observed several deficiencies, lands with low production due to the salinity of their soils due to the high water table. We are going to ask the Viru JUR to present their information sheets so that we can develop them and start activities with our machinery to clean the drains, said Cabrera Carlos.
He also commented that they are evaluating the need to supply water for the San Idelfonso Irrigation Commission (Viru), and thus be able to supply them with the water resource since for many years they have not had a supply of this liquid element for their fields made up of 120 farmers. The ALA Trujillo - Viru - Moche participates in this activity in order to provide regulatory support. In addition, we are going to work with the JUR on some aspects that could put the Irrigation Infrastructure at risk. All these activities are carried out in accordance with and in compliance with the Agreement signed with them, said the official. The Agreement in question has provided for the preparation of a work plan that in its preliminary version was sent to the User Boards to receive their contributions and then have the final work plan drawn up.
The Work Plan contemplates three important aspects: the transfer of technology for the improvement of family agriculture, in charge of the PECH Agricultural Development Sub-management; the second is on the improvement of the hydraulic irrigation infrastructure, where the Boards will present a development of activities, to prepare the intervention plans that we are going to carry out, which will be in charge of Operation and Maintenance; and the third issue is drainage, where we already have the request from the Chao Board, we are going to do the study, evaluation and formulation of the respective activities, which will be in charge of the Studies Sub-management, concluded the PECH manager.
The PECH manager was accompanied by Eng. Jose Juarez, Assistant Manager of Operations and Maintenance; and Eng. Lucio Alva, Assistant Manager of Studies.
