Breakages in Guyana Water Inc’s (GWI) main transmission lines are being blamed for the cut in water supply to residents of Herstelling and surrounding areas on the East Bank of Demerara.
Stabroek News was informed that residents of Herstelling have not been receiving water through the pipelines since Wednesday. A few residents related to this newspaper that it was after their storage tanks went dry that they realised that water was not running in the pipes.
Others explained that the rainfall over the last few days cushioned the lack of running water but they are unsure what would happen when the water in the tanks finishes.
