The residents of three North Rupununi communities have been promised new wells and distribution networks to improve their access to a potable water supply.

The pledge was made by Managing Director of the Guyana Water Incorporated (GWI) Dr. Richard Van West-Charles during a visit last week, when he learned that many residents from the communities of Apoteri, Crashwater and Rewa do not have access to potable water from the current water systems in place.
