VARGEM GRANDE PAULISTA, Brazil — From Marcelo Indame's perspective, the San Lorenzo Water Supply Project is making tremendous contributions to the state of Sao Paulo, host of Brazil's most populous city.

"The strong water supply capacity of 6 cubic meters per second provided by the project, which is operated by China Gezhouba Group Co Ltd, undoubtedly makes an important contribution to the state," said the general manager of the San Lorenzo water supply company.

Since it began commercial operation in July 2018, the project, located in the state's municipality of Vargem Grande Paulista, has provided a safe and reliable clean water supply for nearly 2 million residents in seven cities in the region.
