President Noboa Inspects Water and Sanitation Projects in Chone, Manabí
On November 11, 2026, President Daniel Noboa visited Chone, Manabí, to inspect two key projects aimed at improving water and sanitation services. These projects include enhanced hydrosanitary infrastructure designed to improve rainwater evacuation and reduce flood risks, and the repotentiation of the potable water treatment plant. The hydrosanitary system, which is 100% operational in the San Rafael sector, benefits over 94,267 inhabitants and is part of the Master Hydrosanitary and Pluvial Plan of Chone. This plan involved the reconstruction of potable water and sanitary sewage networks, as well as the improvement of the pluvial sewage system, with financing of USD 13.9 million from the Development Bank of Ecuador (BDE). President Noboa also visited the repotentiation work on the potable water treatment plant, Phase III, which is 82% complete and includes the construction of an adduction line, repotentiation of the plant, and reconstruction and expansion of the distribution network.
