📋 Tender Overview
- It could affect the stability of the reservoir and the water supply for more than 7 thousand residents of San Fernando.San Martin.- The Comptroller General of the Republic (CGR) alerted five adverse situations in the work to expand and improve drinking water and basic sanitation services being carried out in eight locations in the district of San Fernando, province of Rioja. The project, valued at S/ 57.8 million, will benefit more than 7 thousand inhabitants.
In Concurrent Control Report No. 8711-2026-CG/GRSM-SCC (inspection carried out in May 2026), a crack was identified in the land adjacent to the projects main reservoir, caused by the slippage of a slope located behind the perimeter fence. The situation was previously warned by construction supervision, which classified the scenario as an imminent danger due to the deforestation of the neighboring area, the loss of soil stability and the risk of erosion due to rain.
According to the report, if the land displacement persists, the perimeter fence could collapse and the structural stability of the valve house and the reservoir could be compromised. This situation would put at risk one of the main objectives of the project, which is to guarantee the supply of drinking water to the beneficiary population.
The control commission also identified deficiencies in primary lagoon No. 2 of the Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP), where the waterproofing layer presents deformations generated by humidity. This condition could affect the stability and operability of the infrastructure intended for wastewater treatment.
Likewise, the installation of emergency lamps with characteristics different from those provided for in the technical file was detected, as well as inconsistencies in the capacitor banks that serve to improve the efficiency of the electrical system of the Drinking Water Treatment Plant (PTAP), which could affect the safety of users, the operation of the electromechanical equipment and the quality of the electrical supply required for the operation of the system.
Another aspect observed was that the metal structure intended to support the solar panels of the WWTP would not meet the technical orientation and inclination criteria established to optimize the collection of solar energy. This situation could reduce the expected performance of the photovoltaic system.
The results of the control service were communicated to the District Municipality of San Fernando to adopt the corresponding preventive and corrective actions so that the investment fulfills its public purpose for the benefit of the families of the towns of Leticia, Perlamayo, Nuevo Oriente, Santa Clara, Alto Michuco, Bajo Michuco, Polo Punta and San Fernando.
