Argentina's Córdoba warns water company of possible fines amid shortages
The Córdoba government has warned water company Aguas de Córdoba of possible fines as several areas of the capital of the central Argentine province face shortages.
Aguas de Córdoba has acknowledged northern and western neighborhoods in Córdoba city lack water or have low pressure in pipes due to problems at treatment plant Suquía.
The company said steep demand and high summer temperatures have made the water plant system unstable.
The provincial government has said it is providing Aguas de Córdoba with enough water to satisfy current demand and urged the company to re-establish the service soon.
"If necessary, we'll fine the company," Córdoba's government said in a statement.
It also said residents without water at Christmas would not pay their December water bill.
Aguas de Córdoba supplies water to Córdoba city, with 1.2mn residents. It is owned by Grupo Roggio, a conglomerate with operations in water, entertainment, construction, transport and technology.
