As the Guyana Water Incorporated (GWI) carries out works in Mahdia, Region 8 to improve access to potable water, 13 new service connections have been done to date over the past week.
However, a setback for GWI workers and contractors has been constant rainfall., a release yesterday from GWI said
Due to the rain and lack of screens at the catchment area, the team was made to revisit the area to clean it. The release said that the team will be installing replacement screens since the catchment has to be subjected to regular cleaning due to damaged screens.
