The Dominican Republic cement plant is aware of the physical hazards to which it is exposed. For this reason, in 2017 it developed a plan to measure and reduce water consumption, with specific site targets which allow it to minimize risks through actions such as monitoring and controlling consumption and providing the installation with the necessary and appropriate elements in accordance with Argo's water guidance.
