The Cabinet invited three officials from the Antigua Public Utilities Authority (APUA) to its meeting to discuss the issue of water provisioning to homes, businesses, institutions and farmers.

The General Manager, the Water Manager, and the Financial Controller came to the Cabinet prepared to answer many questions concerning consumers’ complaints of water supply issues.

The APUA General Manager assured that the Ffryes Beach Reverse Osmosis Plant will begin providing potable water next Friday, January 31.

All the work necessary to expand the plant and to connect the supply lines has been completed.

The pumps will be activated on Tuesday 28 January 2025: One will pump the water in a northerly direction as far as St. John’s; the other will pump in a southerly direction to meet demands in Johnson’s Point, Cades Bay, Old Road, and other communities in the South.
