Ascención also indicated that the MOPC is working in coordination with the Emergency Operations Center (COE) and the Military and Police Commission (Comipol) of the Ministry of Public Works.
The MOPC has highlighted that its brigades and teams have been monitoring the interruption of traffic and other situations on various roads in the northern region and provinces such as Samaná and Puerto Plata, which have been affected by heavy rains over the past two weeks.
