Multiple breakdown in water supply in Cartaya caused by excess pressure
June 27, 2011
Like this, the public company of management saw forced to cut the supply in all the population from hours of the afternoon and until very gone in the night. To first hour of this Monday, still there are concrete points in which it has not reestablished the supply. Nevertheless, from the department of Networks informed that this will go back to the normality in the next hours, as it has informed it Giahsa in a press release.
The high influx of users this weekend, like prelude to the months of tourist high season, caused from the Thursday in the network of supply of the place cartayera of The Rompido an excess of pressure in the pipes that drove to the break of the network in several points.
Five couples of operarios, a capataz, an attendant and the manager of the department of Networks of Giahsa worked during all day and the morning of this Monday to give answer in the lower possible time to the failures.
The works consisted in the first place in locating the breaks, that resulted to be varied in distinct points. Later it proceeded to substitute twenty metres/meters of pipe, six on the one hand and almost fifteen by another. On the other hand, and to avoid courts generalised/generalized in future failures that could produce, the technicians of the department of Networks are installing a valve of cut in one of the highest zones of The Rompido.
Of this form could limit the cut of water with “a lot of more precision” to attain that the fault of supply affect to the lower number of possible citizens.
