México reduzirá o fornecimento de água do Sistema Cutzamala para a Cidade do México e o Estado do México a partir de 17 de maio

Autoridades anunciaram que o fornecimento de água do sistema Cutzamala para a Cidade do México e para o Estado do México diminuirá a partir de domingo, 17 de maio. A medida visa proteger os níveis de armazenamento atuais do sistema.

Citlalli Peraza Camacho, diretora geral do Organismo de Cuenca Aguas del Valle de México, afirmou que o fluxo atual de 16 metros cúbicos por segundo será reduzido para proteger os 546 milhões de metros cúbicos armazenados atualmente.

Ela falou durante o lançamento do protocolo conjunto de prevenção de inundações para 2026 em Nezahualcóyotl e Ecatepec. O sistema está com 69,79 por cento de sua capacidade, acrescentou.

Peraza Camacho observou que o volume poderá ser aumentado novamente, se necessário, durante a Copa do Mundo de 2026. O sistema Cutzamala abastece a área metropolitana da Cidade do México e cidades no Estado do México, incluindo Toluca, Lerma e Ocoyoacac.
