Chetumal, Q.R. — The Drinking Water and Sewerage Commission (CAPA) has reported on advancements of the Pacto Obrero wastewater emitter for Chetumal. The expansion project, which is 95 percent complete, will see an improvement to the city’s sanitary drainage.
When finished, more than 2,100 people will benefit. CAPA says the improvement is being made due to city growth and demand for the services.
The State Government, through CAPA, has invested 9.5 million pesos from Own Income of the Parastatal Sector (IPP) 2022 in the improvement of the sanitary drainage system of the growth area of Chetumal to address problems that are more than 30 years old.
