At a treatment plant inauguration a few weeks ago, Ministers Carlos Montes (Housing and Urban Development) and Álvaro Elizalde (Interior) announced a new public policy: promoting the reuse of water from sinks, washing machines, and showers in new building projects to conserve water resources.

As the GWR Project approaches its final stage, scientific team leaders and members convened both in-person and virtually. The meeting served to review accomplishments, identify areas for enhancement, and consolidate lessons learned from this initiative focused on the treatment and reuse of domestic gray water, which constitutes over 60% of typical household water consumption.
