Water supply is expected to return to normal this Thursday (23) in São José. More than 150 neighborhoods in São José dos Campos gradually began receiving water again after the interruption of supply that began last Monday (20). Despite progress in system recovery, residents of some neighborhoods still report a lack of water this Thursday (23). In the Cidade Morumbi neighborhood, for example, some residents said that the water returned to the tank in the early hours of the morning. In the same neighborhood, however, other residents still have a dry tap, as is the case with Rosângela Gouveia. "It's been here since Monday without water. I'm saving water from the tank. There are many neighbors, there's only one tank, it's already gone because the tank is small. I've been buying water since Tuesday, drinking all purchased water. Here in Morumbi it's not the first time. It's been several times," he said. ?

Neighborhoods of São José receive water again, but residents still report shortages this Thursday (23) Reproduction/TV Vanguarda Emergency intervention Sabesp reported that the interruption of supply was necessary to replace three valves in the water collection system. According to the company, the equipment was old and had not been modernized for many years. According to the company, the exchange was part of the investment plan to increase operational security and solve a historical problem in the city. However, during the preparatory tests, one of the valves failed, which required emergency intervention to be brought forward. The company stated that replacing the equipment will increase the reliability of the system and allow definitive solutions for water supply in the municipality. Sabesp apologized for the inconvenience and advised the population to maintain conscious use of water during the system's recovery period. According to TV Vanguarda, this Thursday morning other neighborhoods such as Dom Bosco and Bairrinho also remained without supply. Other neighborhoods such as Jardim Imperial and Jardim das Indústrias, for example, had already returned water to normal. In a new note, Sabesp reported that, on the morning of this Thursday (23), 94.4% of residences had already had their supply restored and that the teams were mobilized "on a continuous basis to restore service in properties that still have intermittence". The company said that the regions that still show fluctuations are Veneza, Vale do Sol, Jardim República, Eldorado, Buquirinha 2, the upper part of Jardim Colonial and part of Conjunto 31 de Março. Regarding the intervention in the system, Sabesp said that the action was necessary because "the equipment was old and had not been modernized for many years" and that "the change was already foreseen in Sabesp's investment plan to increase operational security and solve a historical problem in the city".
