Water Rationing Possible Due To "El Niño" in Panama
(Panama-Guide) - Source: TVN Noticias - Even though Panama's National Institute of Aqueducts and Sewers (IDAAN) has been taking measures to conserve water since last December, concerns over the water supply continue due to the ongoing ENSO phenomenon of "El Niño" which is expected to last until next June, said Rodrigo Barragán on the TVN Channel 2 news broadcast this morning. He said the water supplies in Panama city depend on Alajuela Lake which was at its maximum capacity in December at the start of the dry season, but which has since shown a marked decline.
