El Tambo is the first municipality in Nariño to apply a water rationing for the phenomenon of El Niño

The municipality of El Tambo in Nariño, Colombia, has become the first to implement water rationing due to the effects of El Niño, which have significantly reduced the flow of the Guáitara River. The rationing schedule was initially set from 2:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., but authorities warned it could change based on water availability and system conditions. Officials, including the secretary of Public Works, David Rosero, urged residents to conserve water during the restricted hours. Police officers also called for responsible water use, warning against activities like vehicle washing and irrigation that waste resources. Authorities emphasized that the measures were necessary due to recent shortages and that enforcement would include penalties for non-compliance.
