The Financial Oversight and Management Board for Puerto Rico announced Sunday it has submitted the names of three candidates for possible designation as revitalization coordinator to Puerto Rico Gov. Alejandro García-Padilla.
Puerto Rico Acting Gov. Víctor Suárez, signed House Bill 2864 into law Wednesday, creating the Puerto Rico Aqueduct and Sewer Authority Revitalization Act, a statute that gives the water utility the tools to access capital markets and achieve self-sustainability.
A group of representatives for Puerto Rican consumers, businesses, industries, and workers warned Sunday that the legislative approval of the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority Revitalization Act will deliver “a mortal blow” to the island’s already critical economic situation.
