No cause for alarm from Uitvlugt sea defence works – Edghill

The water lodging and eroding the soil behind the Uitvlugt seawall

Minister of Public Works, Juan Edghill, yesterday said that the community of Uitvlugt will soon be briefed on the effects of the sea defence works which are currently being done in the area.

A concerned resident of the community had sent a video to Stabroek News highlighting the overtopping of the seawall by ocean water even as sea defence works were being carried out just behind the wall.
