Chairman of the National Drainage and Irrigation Authority (NDIA) Board Lionel Wordsworth yesterday dispelled the suggestion that there is a breach of the East Demerara Water Conservancy, which is suspected by residents of Mora Point, Mahaicony River, due to excess water on the land that is continuing to rise.
However, Wordsworth told Stabroek News that water level in the conservancy remains at a manageable height.
He explained that since the start of the rainy season, the NDIA has been monitoring the conservancy’s water level and the most recent assessment has indicated the banks remain uncompromised.
