Water restored in Chile capital after day-long cut
Space Daily via AFP: Water has been restored in Chile's capital Santiago after a 24-hour pollution-related outage that affected more than two million people, the water utility said Wednesday.
The cut-off in the supply of drinking water to more than 593,000 homes from early Tuesday was linked to contamination in a key river that supplies the city and forced the closure of several businesses.
The Aguas Andinas water utility announced that all services had been restored as of 5:00 am (0800 GMT)....
