The Dosrius City Council has approved a new decree to guarantee the continuity and safety of the water supply service in Canyamars, following incidents recorded in recent weeks, including an outage of over forty hours on October 20th.

The council will temporarily assume operational control of essential network elements, without altering ownership, to ensure the service and protect public health. This decision follows repeated supply problems that left nearly 150 plots without water for more than two days.
The City Council has already carried out various actions, such as installing a generator set, technical work on the network and reservoirs, and monitoring water quality. These actions are supported by a judicial authorization from the Contentious-Administrative Court number 10 of Barcelona.
The new decree appoints the municipal engineer as head of technical direction and a coordinator for the daily operations of the company WMC. The measures are provisional and limited to ensuring the service, without expropriation or alteration of ownership.
The City Council has requested information from the current provider and has responded to the allegations presented. The measures will be reviewed periodically and will be maintained as long as necessary to find a stable and definitive solution for the supply in Canyamars.
