The Santo Domingo Water Authority (CAASD) reports that work brigades are out in force trying to re-establish a full water supply as soon as possible. Because of the flooding and the pollutants carried in the rivers that supply Santo Domingo, the CAASD had closed several supply lines as a preventive measure. Some of the well fields were also without water as a result of the lack of electricity. Valdesia, Haina-Manoguayabo and La Isabela were just three of the systems that were closed as a precautionary measure. Due to the muddy condition of the water in the Haina-Manoguayabo watershed, the CAASD is expecting to take at least 48 hours to reestablish the system.
