Communities in Region Seven Cuyuni-Mazaruni are now being monitored by the Civil Defence Commission (CDC) as extensive rainfall has resulted in flooding there.
The CDC yesterday said it has received reports of rising water levels at Devil’s Hole along the Cuyuni River and at Eterinbang, on the Guyana-Venezuela border.
“The CDC has received updates that the water level at Devil’s Hole is relatively high, even though rains have stopped in the area at the moment. At Eteringbang, the water level is approximately 12 inches, but rain continues in that location,” the disaster response agency said in a statement yesterday.
