Which supervises the rehabilitation of the hydraulic net in Constantine for one year now, showed the necessity of the cloture of the part related to the rehabilitation before the announcement of the bidding for the water management of Constantine, and this to avoid the mix up between the two companies. The French company is changing, now, the 68 km of the net pipe which their diameters range from 100mlm to 800mlm, plus the replacement of the old key-meters. The vice general director of the group Jack Stevens confirmed to El Khabar in a face to face meeting with him in Paris that the working groups in Constantine have discovered 2800 leaks after its check up of 32 km of pipes, which means the existence of 6,5 leaks in each one km. Their repairs have started, also these groups finished 70% of the net map, 200Km were checked up, and 3000 of irrigation sector units were counted, and then were integrated in the map. The same responsible mentioned the problem of the new inhabitants gatherings that part of them are away from the linking, and the initiatives of many inhabitants of linking their houses with the net without taking in consideration the existing plans, and these are obstacles that hamper efforts being made to accomplish a complete map. Also the problem that is being faced during the search for leaks is the lack of water “it is not possible to discover leaks if the water is not running through the pipes” Constantine’s water net lies on the length of 1300Klm and the water pressure can send the water up to 20 floors, and this because of the nature of the geological structure of the town, that is considered old and vulnerable to mud slide, the thing that negatively affect the water net and cause leaks and water wastage, especially that the net is not working on a regular basis.
