Residents of Liliendaal are concerned that a section of the seawall that was broken to insert a pipe to facilitate construction of the US$6 million Liliendaal Pump Station could lead to flooding in the area, if left unattended.
When Stabroek News posed the question during a visit to the area yesterday, the site manager, whose name was given as Mr Tulsie, said, “Tell the residents I said to f*%# off”. He then contended that no resident had that concern.
“Breaking the seawall to place the pump wouldn’t pose an issue to the residents as all the engineers along with the sea defence board wouldn’t have approved the project,” he added.
