The municipality of El Pinar is responsible for the administration of services related to the complete water cycle. The main objective is to provide its inhabitants with a secure, high-quality, and sustainable water supply, along with proper wastewater management.
The integral water cycle encompasses several key stages: water abstraction, which involves obtaining the water resource from designated points to supply the municipality's population centers; water treatment and control for human consumption, carrying out the necessary processes to ensure the supplied water meets current sanitary requirements; and distribution, which entails supplying potable water to homes, establishments, and public services through the municipal network.
Additionally, it includes sanitation and purification, which involves the collection and conveyance of wastewater through the sanitation network for subsequent treatment. This process aims to minimize environmental impact before returning the water to the natural environment.
Water is a limited and essential resource. The El Pinar City Council works to ensure responsible and efficient water cycle management, promoting its rational use, infrastructure conservation, and environmental protection.
The importance of citizen collaboration is highlighted to prevent water waste and ensure the sustainability of this vital resource for future generations.
Citizens can check the quality of drinking water by accessing the National Information System for Drinking Water (SINAC) of the Ministry of Health, selecting El Pinar (Granada) to obtain information on supply areas.
