Abstract

The image contains news about the new regulations and rates for making water charges, defining a monthly value depending on the inches of the tube that will transport the water. All people who pay their rates early will receive different discounts from the final payment. All people who want to renew their pipes to the new system will have a reduction of one third of the price present in the rate. The company must undertake to repair free of charge any obstructions in the pipes that have been placed by them in the pipe installations. After guaranteeing the operation of the pipeline, any damage suffered by the pipeline will be charged to the tenants or owners of the properties. The water supplied to a house must be used exclusively by these people; On the contrary, if they sell or give away this water, they will lose the right to the water supply. Families that do not pay their fee for 2 months will be suspended from water service until they pay one year in advance of the fees, without the right to a discount.
