The water crisis in the Province of Tucumán has worsened in recent years – or rather after the termination of the contract with Aguas del Aconquija – due to the inability shown by those who were chosen by the highest authorities to direct the destinies of the province. SAT (capable: Apt, proportionate, sufficient for a certain thing). I express this not only with the experience of my 79 years but also because I have left 31 of my precious years in the Provincial Drinking Water Service (SPAP) – which, upon joining with OSN, formed Dipos until the service was privatized and after the termination took the name of the SAT. In those 31 years I held different positions: pump mechanic – while studying mechanical engineering – construction inspector, division head, department head – already being a mechanical engineer and sanitary engineer – and finally deputy director of Dipos – concluding my career as Ersact Comptroller , where I resigned after six months because I did not agree with the policy of normalizing the entity. In those times there was a health career; The professionals who worked there strived to train themselves and become those who would later direct the destinations of the collection, treatment and conduction of the liquid element. From there emerged a José Domián – who trained in France -, an Oscar Molteni, a Matías Rios, a Juan Negro, who later took over the leadership of Dipos. Together with them we project the Decade of Water. It would never have occurred to put someone in the position of director who has not completed a true healthcare career. After the termination of the contract with AA, the distribution was politicized by hand-picking the supreme position. They took on professionals with no experience in the subject and lately a politician – they would have to put their experiences on the health issue on their CVs. These appointments undermine what the Governor said about calling the most capable. As an example, I give the example of Water and Sanitation (AySA), whose director is the wife of the current Minister of Economy. Is she qualified? No wonder today’s young people are looking for new horizons. Finally, some advice. Is there a water shortage due to the lowering of the Cadillal elevation? That’s why La Niña (raft) was built.
