Maintenance of 1 km of rehabilitated amunas by PepsiCo

With support from PepsiCo, we executed the project Preventive and corrective maintenance of 1.81 km of rehabilitated amunas in the rural community of Quilcamachay-Vicas, in the Santa Eulalia river sub-basin. This project is part of the sustainability commitment that we share with our partner until 2030, and responds to the need to guarantee the proper operation of the rehabilitated amunas by 2024 with its financing, since they are ancestral infrastructures that have been exposed to extreme weather conditions and natural wear and tear since the beginning of their operations.

 

The project was executed in coordination with the Quilcamachay-Vicas farming community. The work performed included preventive maintenance, which included the removal of weeds, de-silting of the catchment points and improvement of the natural infiltration areas. Corrective maintenance included the repair of damaged sections, the reinforcement of critical sectors, the recovery of hydraulic infrastructure and the treatment of erosion areas (gullies).
