A Yanomami Indigenous Land, in Surucucu, received a artesian well which has a pump powered by solar energy. action was carried out by military that operate in the region with the objective of improving living conditions and health of indigenous people, federal agents and military personnel who live in the area.

A action, carried out by army soldiers participants in the operation Catrimani II, aims to guarantee the water supply for the Indigenous Health Reference Center of the Special Indigenous Health District, which is under construction.

O Reference Center aims to improve healthcare in that area. THE well is 61 meters deep, estimated flow of 3 thousand liters per hour, operating continuously.

A bomb that extracts water is powered by solar energy, which significantly reduces logistical costs, eliminating the need to transport fuel. 

The use of solar energy also minimizes the environmental impact, as there is no burning of fossil fuels during the operation of the well.

The jobs carried out by operation Catrimani II, in Yanomami Land, continue. The military will continue drilling wells in other communities. 

Those actions are part of the performance of the Federal government in the region. In addition to improvements for the inhabitants, the operation also seeks to combat mining and act on the entire water supply infrastructure. 

The work is coordinated by the Government House, located in Roraima, which monitors and coordinates activities in indigenous lands.
