00:05The bridge that the community had taponed to prevent the flood of Santa Lucía Atlantic
00:11entered the river of the canal of the dique to the municipality.
00:14In the middle of the despair, the inhabitants tried to control the situation with the forest
00:19but it was impossible.
00:21One of the Bosch Colbert that we had tapado, unfortunately,
00:24it collapsed and in this moment there were very large filtration,
00:29we had to tapon it, we had to try to keep the people isolated from this great inundation.
00:38However, the current entered with so much strength
00:40that in less than two hours, it was inundated more than half of the municipality
00:44and it didn't give time to evacuate.
00:47That's what we put in the water, the people lost a lot of things,
00:51and what's going to do?
00:52In Lanchas, the Armada National started to evacuate the damage
00:56because the municipality was completely incomunicated by the land.
01:01In this moment we are evacuating the population of Santa Lucía,
01:04which has already had water, the idea is that all the personnel
01:09put in a safe place and go to albergues.
01:13The municipality of Swan is the only of the Atlantic that is not inundated,
01:17however, the authorities recommend their evacuation
01:21against an imminent inundation.
01:24I think it's a recommendation that in any moment we can analyze the possibility
01:29of a evacuation of our municipality.
01:31In the meantime, we continue the work to try to close the bucket of more than 200 meters
01:37that opened since 15 days the Canal del Dique
01:40over this road in the south of Atlantic.
