Next Tuesday, April 30, the contract will be signed with the Government of Canada to resume the works of Chavimochic III after 7 years of stagnation, La República was informed by the Chavimochic Special Project (PECH). The day before, the Minister of Agrarian Development and Irrigation, Ángel Manero, assured that the negotiations had ended.
It is worth noting that the contract modality is Government to Government (G2G) and contemplates the completion of the Palo Redondo dam and the third line of the Virú Siphon. The Canadian Commercial Corporation will be in charge of the project, which has been paralyzed since December 2016. They anticipate that the first phase of Chavimochic III would be completed in 2027.
A half-hearted unlocking?
Although the Executive and the Regional Government of La Libertad celebrate the resumption of work in Chavimochic III, there is not as much light on the second phase.
This newspaper warned in February of this year that there is still no progress in the creation of the 127.7 kilometer mother canal, which will extend from Moche to Ucarripe.
Jhon Cabrera Carlos, manager of PECH, stated that the unblocking of the project “is great news for La Libertad and the country” and commented that this Friday, April 19, the signature would be stamped on the addendum 2 agreement with Midagri, with which will be enabled to sign an agreement with ProInversión in order to execute the Chavimochic mother channel—which would also be signed this month.
