The local government deployed only 16 firetrucks for this year, which is far from 50 water trucks deployed over the past few years.
The remaining 34 trucks will be used to distribute water in the areas affected the water service interruption.
San Juan is now celebrating its 16th festival commemorating theĀ Feast of St. John the Baptist by splashing water to commuters, visitors, and passersby.
