PLAN DIRECTOR DE LA CUENCA DEL RÍO ROCHA
Summary
The 'Plan Director de la Cuenca del Río Rocha' (PDCR) is an executive summary of a strategic framework designed to manage the Rocha River Basin in Bolivia. It focuses on integrating water management, environmental restoration, and climate change adaptation across short, medium, and long-term horizons (up to 2040). The plan addresses critical deficits in safe water access, sanitation, and irrigation, while proposing five strategic lines of action to improve governance, knowledge, and ecological health in the basin.
Key insights
- The Rocha River Basin covers 3,699.9 km2 in the Department of Cochabamba, Bolivia, and is home to over 1.4 million people, representing 13% of the national population. It is divided into three main sub-basins: Maylanco, Rocha, and Sulty.
- Safe water access is severely limited, with an estimated capacity to meet only 66% of demand by 2025. Under a 30-year return period drought scenario, supply capacity drops to 30% of the total estimated population (458,995 people). By 2040, drought-condition coverage is projected to fall to 18%.
