The Situation Room issues reports on weather conditions as well as warnings for other institutional actors.c) Monitoring and hydrometeorological modeling - The modeling allows for the adoption of preventive measures, issue of warnings, management of surface water use conflict and preventive actions in case of droughts and floods.d) Expansion of the hydrometeorological gauge network - With resources from the World Bank, the National Water Agency, The Nation Centre for Natural Disasters Monitoring and Alert and the Secretary own resources, this projects aims to expand and update the state’s hydrometeorological gauge network in articulation with Uruguay. The location of the new water level gauges is subjected to technical criteria and to the decision from Watershed Committees based on their Watershed Management Plans. | |||||
