The session was led by Yoel P\u00e9rez Garc\u00eda, the First Secretary of the Party, alongside Governor Alis Azahares Torreblanca.<\/p>\n<p>During the meeting, Joaqu\u00edn D\u00edaz Cantillo, director of the Guant\u00e1namo Electric Company, reported that electrical service had been disrupted for 24 hours, with some areas experiencing outages lasting over 20 hours.<\/p>\n<p>He attributed these issues to challenges in national thermal power generation, notably the shutdown of the Antonio Guiteras thermoelectric plant, which is anticipated to return to the National Power System soon, potentially alleviating some of the outages. Additionally, he mentioned ongoing problems with primary circuits, particularly in the Limonar area of El Salvador, where repairs are scheduled.<\/p>\n<p>On the water supply front, Edilso Delgado Guzm\u00e1n, the Delegate of Hydraulic Resources in Guant\u00e1namo, announced the installation of a new network system in Marsellesa to facilitate gravity-fed water service. He also noted that twelve technological units are currently out of service due to malfunctions and are undergoing repairs at specialized workshops. In the interim, the local population&#8217;s water needs are being met through the deployment of water trucks.<\/p>\n<p>The analysis also examined the sanitation situation, revealing that there are currently 123 cesspools discharging waste in the town of Jamaica and other areas of Manuel Tames. Cleaning and evacuation efforts will be carried out gradually, depending on the availability of fuel needed to transport mechanized equipment to the affected regions.<\/p>\n<p>Another critical issue discussed was epidemiological surveillance in response to reported cases of fever in several municipalities, particularly in Baracoa. Health authorities emphasized the importance of ongoing monitoring of these incidents, enhancing investigations, and reinforcing hygiene measures to prevent the spread of diseases, primarily those caused by arboviruses.<\/p>\n<p>Provincial leaders reiterated the necessity of daily monitoring of these issues and the importance of timely communication with the public regarding the actions being taken to address them. They highlighted the focus on basic services that directly impact the quality of life for residents in Guantanamo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Guantanamo.- A significant meeting took place in Guant\u00e1namo, attended by key Party and Government officials, to address critical issues affecting the local population, particularly concerning electricity supply, water services, and the region&#8217;s epidemiological status.
