March 26, 2003 – St. Thomas "country" residents and businesses on the Water and Power Authority's potable water system are being advised that WAPA plans to limit mid-island water distribution for several days at the end of April in order to inspect its main water tank in Donoe.
Customers in the Tutu, Turpentine Run Road and Bovoni-Nadir areas will be affected.
The specific dates involved will be announced later. WAPA spokeswoman Patricia Blake-Simmonds said in a release that water distribution will be limited and, on some days, unavailable for potable water customers situated on higher elevations. She suggested that customers with cisterns make sure they are in good shape and that their pump systems are working.
