Due to fluoride levels exceedingly high, the 600 residents of Ermita Nueva were unable to drink tap water for three months.

The Alcala la Real City Council reported on April 13th, through a proclamation, that the Territorial Delegation of Health and Families of Jaen has issued a resolution declaring that the village's water supply is unfit for drinking. For exceeding the maximum permissible fluoride limit.

The current health legislation sets the limit at 1.5 mg per litre. This is after obtaining a value of 1.75 from the waters of Ermita Nueva. Angel Montoro (Consultant for Villages), has stated that fluoride levels are "practically the same" since the restriction was implemented and that they don't expect them to decrease until the rainy season. ie next fall.

Montoro noted that the City Council is considering installing a pipe to another point in Alcala la Real's water supply network. This will allow new water resources to be brought into the network from the Ermita Nueva network to reduce fluoride levels. Fluoride. Chemical treatment was also an option, but it was initially rejected.

The prohibition against water being taken from the distribution network is still in effect. This is at a time where Ermita Nueva's population has increased to close to 800 people over the summer.

Adalsa, the municipal water company is said to conduct an extensive monitoring of the development of fluorides in water twice per week. As the water concentration in the water is normalized, distribution of bottled water continues. It seems like it won't improve this summer.
