Santa Rosa Mission, in the Moruca sub-region of the North West District, in Region One, is now without electricity due to a burst power line, while residents and businesses in the region’s Mabaruma township have had to contend with a reduction in their power supply due to mechanical problems affecting one of the generators servicing the area
Regional Chairman Brentnol Ashley yesterday told Stabroek News that a power line burst while some residents were cutting a tree at Santa Rosa. He explained that after a report was made to the authorities, residents were informed that the issue would be rectified within three days.
As a result, a notice posted outside the regional administration building has informed residents that they will be without power until August 18th.
