Corsan deploys contingency pumps after Rio Espraiado intake failure disrupts Soledade water supply
  • Corsan expanded contingency operations to restore Soledade’s water supply following pump failures at the Rio Espraiado intake.
  • Two intake pumps burned out amid high river levels and debris, interrupting raw-water capture for the treatment system.
  • Three replacement pumps were dispatched from Porto Alegre for installation to restart flows to the water treatment plant.
  • Normalization is expected to be gradual once pumping resumes, as the network refills and reservoirs recover operating levels.
  • Emergency supply continued via six tanker trucks, with up to two more available, hauling water from Passo Fundo.
