The Ministry of Public Health has closed two water-bottling plants and is looking at another thirty in Santo Domingo province alone. The ministry is carrying out an inspection program designed to weed out bottlers that are not truly fulfilling their requirements. The health watch started in Santo Domingo but it will include 300 bottlers that are registered with the ministry.
