At the end of theElas Pia province, the final results will be sent to the Economic and Social Council to complete a document that genuinely reflects the populations felt needs to turn it into a political consensus and a long-term state policy.
We are looking for a solution to a problem that unfortunately will only have a long-term solution due to its size and complexity, the water problem is very difficult to solve in a short time and requires an investment of more than 8 billion pesos,assured the Minister Ceara Hatton to the local media.
Among the challenges presented by Greater Santo Domingo are the recovery of 64% of the water currently delivered and not used; an increase in the coverage of drinking water in quality, quantity, and opportunity to 95% of the population; an increase in the coverage of sanitary sewerage and treatment plants to 60%; eliminate the causes of the degradation of the quality of the bodies of surface and underground waters and the marine coastline.
Also, increase theappreciationof the water resource by citizens;develop a water culture in the population; achieve governance of water resources to an effective, stable, and legitimate level, and go from 32% regulation to 40%.
According to the diagnosis carried out forGreater Santo Domingo, eight main problems were identified from the variable critical causes, such as insufficient satisfaction of the population regarding the demand for drinking water in quantity, quality, and timeliness; Insufficient infrastructure for wastewater collection and treatment;limited regulation and storage infrastructure (dams);degradation of the quality of bodies of surface, underground and coastal waters.
As well as the generation of diseases of water origin, both due to the consumption of poor quality drinking water and due to contact with contaminated water; Increasing risk for the population associated with climatic events;Absence of governance for the good use of water resources and Scarce valuation of the water resource.
