The Guyana Water Incorporated (GWI) recently wrapped up a six- day visit to Region Nine to analyse the effects of the El Niño weather condition and the utility is working on the necessary interventions.

According to GWI’s Hinterland Engineer, Cleon French, the team visited 18 communities in the North Rupununi, Deep South and South Central Rupununi.

The team met with toshaos and residents of the communities and visited water wells and sources to get a firsthand look at the situation.
