📋 Tender Overview
We did it! Today is a historic day for Juliaca and San Miguel, the more than 480,000 inhabitants, and some 100,000 homes will have new or improved drinking water and sewerage connections. The Provincial Mayor of San Román, Mr. Oscar Cáceres Rodríguez, witnessed the signing of the agreement between the Peruvian State and the Inter-American Development Bank – IDB, after approving a Conditional Credit Line of US$700 million, and as part of this line, a first individual loan of US$350 million, to finance the water and sewerage project.
"I am here today on behalf of all the people of Juliaca, who over the years have drunk water with arsenic and their children have grown up with health problems. We have been mocked on many occasions for the lack of interest in being able to make a firm decision to be able to get water and sewage. The signing of this agreement ensures the comprehensive water project, the Wastewater Treatment Plant for Juliaca and the Storm Drainage, as announced by the Minister of Housing, Construction and Sanitation," said Oscar Cáceres.
Councilors, members of the Central Committee of Water and Sewerage, and leaders of 217 urbanizations in Juliaca and San Miguel also arrived in the capital of the Republic, who witnessed the first loan that will contribute to improving the quality of life of the population.
It should be noted that the project includes two stages. The components of Stage I are: Drinking Water Treatment Plant at the Maravillas ranch, raw and treated water pipeline, 03 supported reservoirs, 06 elevated reservoirs, adduction and overflow lines, primary and secondary networks and household connections. For the sewerage, main and secondary collectors, 16 pumping stations, impulse lines and household connections will be built.
While for Phase II, the improvement of the existing reservoir will be carried out, construction of an elevated reservoir, pumping station, adduction lines, inlet chamber, primary and secondary networks and residential connections, and for the sewerage, main and secondary wastewater collectors and household connections will be installed.
