The Haina-Manoguayabo aqueduct in Santo Domingo has experienced a significant structural failure, resulting in a sharp decline in water production to 21 million gallons per day. This reduction has severely impacted the water supply for numerous sectors across the capital city.
The incident presents a major operational challenge for the Corporación del Acueducto y Alcantarillado de Santo Domingo (Caasd). Beyond the technical difficulties of the collapse, the situation poses a direct threat to the water access of over 100,000 residents who rely on the facility for their daily needs.
