GWI engages Mahdia residents for design of new water system

Guyana Water Incorporated (GWI) has called on residents of Mahdia to share their knowledge with its engineers for the development of a new water distribution system.

According to a GWI press release, this occurred on Sunday when a team of officials, headed by Managing Director, Dr Richard Van West-Charles, travelled to Mahdia on Saturday to engage residents in a public meeting. Residents explained that they endure constant disruptions and low level of service due to pipelines being broken during road works, clogged lines and unauthorised connections by miners. In addition, it was highlighted that the catchment area at the Salbora Creek and the existing reservoir have become insufficient to supply the increased population.
