Minister of Agriculture, Zulfikar Mustapha last week said that works on the Adventure, Corentyne Pump Station are 90% completed.
Last year September, Stabroek News carried a letter by a resident of Adventure which stated that almost a year had passed and the project was stalled at that time.
Mustapha when contacted last week for an update explained that the $800m project, which he had said was a multi-year one, is 90% completed and should come into operation sometime this year.
According to a source close to the project, engineers from the National Drainage and Irrigation Authority (NDIA) were on site at the location recently. Additionally, Stabroek News was told that part of the project is to also clean the canal and that is currently ongoing as well.
