Project Narrative

El sistema de acueducto que abastece el casco urbano del municipio de Castilla La Nueva-Meta, tenía dificultades para prestar un servicio de forma continua y con la calidad que exige la norma nacional para agua potable; lo que era ocasionado principalmente por el alto deterioro del dique bocatoma en la captación, la baja capacidad del sistema de desarenación, el mal funcionamiento de la PTAP, la constante vulnerabilidad de la línea de conducción en el Caño Camelias frente a las crecientes del río Humadea y la ausencia de sistemas de medición y control. En consecuencia, alrededor de 6598 habitantes que conforman el casco urbano del municipio de Castilla La Nueva, se veían afectados por las dificultades de prestar un servicio de acueducto continuo y de calidad, lo que está afectando la calidad de vida de los pobladores, su salud, sus actividades económicas y productivas, y el desarrollo óptimo del municipio. A partir de los estudios y diseños entregados por la alcaldía a ECOPETROL se estructuró el proyecto en el marco de la estrategia de entorno, en las líneas de inversión ‘Cierres de brechas en salud’ e ‘ Infraestructura’.
