The Water and Sewerage Authority is advising customers in parts of Central and South West Trinidad that they will be without a pipe-borne water supply until further notice. This is due to an unplanned shutdown of the Point Lisas Desalination Plant on Friday 8th November 2019 caused by a leak on the Fiberglass Clearwell System at the Plant.
The Desalination Company of Trinidad and Tobago (Desalcott), which owns and operates the Plant, is currently assessing the full extent of damages and will then estimate the timeframe until repairs are completed. In the meantime, WASA will attempt to mitigate the effects of a supply shortfall by implementing the following strategies:
Desalcott supplies 40 Million Gallons of water daily to WASA, which is then used to supply the Point Lisas Industrial Estate, as well as augment the supply to areas in Central and South Trinidad.
The following areas will be without a pipe-borne water supply until further notice:
Affected customers are advised to carefully manage their stored water supplies as well as reduce consumption and eliminate wastage via leaks.
