AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Water Crisis: Puerto Rico is starting 48-hour rotating water shutoffs affecting about 500,000 people across San Juan and nearby municipalities as the Carraízo reservoir drops into “operational adjustments,” with drought conditions worsening and residents scrambling for storage and tanker deliveries. Utility Performance: Reporting highlights PRASA’s chronic losses—around 60% of treated water lost before reaching customers—turning drought into a full-blown service emergency. Emergency Support: A South Florida company, Altitude Water, is sending air-to-water machines (up to 380 gallons) to help during rationing, while local distributors have ordered nearly 100 units. Power Contract Scrutiny: Puerto Rico’s financial oversight regulator says it may revoke a 400-megawatt emergency power contract after a purported partner’s name and signature were used without authorization, with possible referral to authorities and a replacement company mentioned. Local Business & Finance: Hecho en Puerto Rico and the Economic Development Bank are partnering to expand financing for local businesses, aiming to boost access to capital. Sports & Tourism Economy: Ponce mayor welcomed a $30 million Hilton renovation, positioning it as a tourism and local-economy boost. Consumer Watch: Powerball jackpot climbed to an estimated $905M after no grand-prize winner, with major secondary prizes reported.
