Currently, this system has an intake, catchment and valve, a desanding tank, with 13 tanks with 73 points distributed to 42 users. Different activities were carried out, such as a tour of the entire system where dimensions were taken of all the elements present, the presence of leaks was observed, flow rates were measured, and a survey was conducted with each of the users. Likewise, a physicochemical and microbiological analysis was made of the water, which showed that it was fit for human consumption, and action programs were also formulated to improve the efficient use and saving of water, such as environmental education with a cost of 17,112,500 million to train the entire community benefited, storage strategies with 34,653,000 million to improve the 13 quality of life of the beneficiary community, and water storage strategies with 34,653,000 million to improve the quality of life of the community, which were designed to improve the quality of life of the beneficiaries. 34, 653,000 million seeks to improve the quality of life of users mainly in times of drought, the reduction of losses with 15,640,900 million in order to minimize losses by repairing or maintaining all the elements of water infrastructure, and finally the efficiency and quality in the provision of services with a cost greater than the previous 91,315,000 million, the purpose of this program is the implementation of macro meters to obtain real data on consumption flows.
