II. POPULATION AND AFFECTED AREAS | 77 IMAGE 27. DAMAGE TO PIPES Source: National Administration of Water Supply and Sewerage (ANDA). In the context of the emergency, inspections were conducted in 14 sanitary landfills; in one, the leachate drain was found to be overflowing, and in another, erosion damage to landfill slopes and cells was found. During the inspection of 9 transfer plants, 3 were found to be affected by problems of rainwater saturation, the flowing of textile material into seasonal creeks, and the accumulation of waste. No effects on means of solid waste collection and disposal were observed. In shelters, pits were used for the disposal of trash generated by families living in these temporary quarters. This waste was collected from the camps by the municipality and taken to the dump. However, these trash dumps lack protection and are therefore vulnerable to rains and floods. Thus, the dumps must be relocated or measures must be adopted to elevate them above ground level. Unforeseen expenditures. US$6.4 million were invested, of which US$4.9 million (77%) corresponded to the public sector and US$1.5 million (23%) to the non-public sector. The largest expenditure category was allocated to carrying out efforts to allow the delivery of safe water to the population living in shelters and affected by the disaster; this represented an investment of 61% of unforeseen expenditures. The repair and cleaning of wells was the second-highest investment category: 35% of total unforeseen expenditures, followed by the investment in sanitation and other efforts such as the mobilization of emergency response brigades, accounting for 4% of total expenditures. As part of the disaster response, ANDA activated its Institutional Plan for Emergency Response. This plan included alternative contingency mechanisms to ensure the provision of safe water to the affected populations. In this regard, ANDA proceeded to distribute properly chlorinated water to the affected population by means of water tankers, and to supply the pipes installed in shelters; on other occasions it delivered 10-liter bags of waters.
