The Cerro Muriano base where two soldiers drowned has vessels stored and unused. The exercise of crossing the reservoir was done on previous occasions with the support of a nautical platoon or only through the area where one stands.

All this material is stored in the unit's sapper battalion, but was not used on the day of the tragedy for bureaucratic reasons. In 2020 the Army General Staff decided to deactivate the diving platoon, which is why, "although the [nautical] material has not been removed", in practice it is not used.
