Planificación Hídrica de la Cuenca Tupiza
Summary
The 'Planificación Hídrica de la Cuenca Tupiza' is a comprehensive water management report published by the Stockholm Environment Institute in September 2022. It provides a strategic framework for the Tupiza River Basin in Potosí, Bolivia, integrating water supply, sanitation, hygiene (WASH), and irrigation with environmental conservation and mining impact mitigation. The document details a participatory decision-making process using analytical models (WEAP, WASH Flows, REVAMP) to address vulnerabilities such as water scarcity, mining pollution, and climate-induced risks like floods and frosts, proposing specific infrastructure investments and institutional governance structures for the 2022-2027 period.
Key insights
- Mining activity is a primary economic driver but a major environmental threat; 54 mines were identified, with 51 focusing on polymetallic minerals, and 684 Mining Environmental Liabilities (PAM) were recorded, 95% of which have received no management.
- To improve urban water access, the 'Proyecto de Trasvase Estarca' is being implemented to transfer 47.07 l/s from the Estarca River to the urban center of Tupiza.
- The plan includes a major investment of 116,652,839.6 Bolivianos for the improvement and expansion of the sanitary sewer system and the construction of a wastewater treatment plant (PTAR) in the urban center of Tupiza.
