📋 Tender Overview
The Provincial Municipality of Piura (MPP) has announced the acquisition of a new 5,000-gallon capacity cistern, which is in addition to the two already existing. The main objective of this initiative is to ensure the distribution of drinking water to vulnerable areas that lack this vital resource.
Engineer Reyner David Cueto Salazar, head of the Office of Maintenance and Control of Machinery, stressed that this action is part of the measures taken by order of the mayor of Piura, Dr. Gabriel Madrid Orue, to ensure the supply of drinking water in different sectors of the city. The supply will take place from Monday to Saturday, in different specific areas each day.
The distribution schedule establishes that on Mondays drinking water will be provided to Ciudad Del Norte, 1 de Mayo, and Independencia, belonging to the district of Veintiseis de Octubre, as well as to the Upis Vendavales and Genesis. On Tuesdays, the beneficiaries will be the inhabitants of La Franja (Veintiséis de Octubre), Hermanos Cárcamo, Santa Teresita, Villa Rica and Jesús María (Castilla).
Likewise, on Wednesdays, drinking water will be supplied to South Florida (Veintiséis de Octubre), Río Seco (Castilla) and the Upis Villa Catacaos. On Thursdays, families from Ciudad del Niño, María Teresa de Calcuta, Ollanta Humala and the hamlet of Las Mercedes will be supplied. On Friday, drinking water will be delivered to the school in the hamlet of Lágrimas de Curumuy, San Borja, Arenales de Jesús (Veintiseis de Octubre) and 13 de Noviembre (Veintiseis de Octubre). Finally, on Saturdays, drinking water will be provided to Colinas de San Fernando (Veintiseis de Octubre) and Ciudad de Dios.
Engineer Cueto Salazar called on the beneficiaries to be attentive with their respective containers to receive drinking water. In addition, he reported that the areas of San Rafael, Olivares San Fernando, Ejidos de Huán and La Obrilla will be annexed to the already established schedule.
The EPS Grau is the entity responsible for providing drinking water, however, the Provincial Municipality of Piura cannot allow these families to continue to suffer the lack of this vital resource indefinitely. In fact, the Piura commune has drawn up this schedule in order to temporarily supply water to meet its basic needs.
