Frequently Asked Questions
In the past few years, we’ve made several improvements to our service to provide YOU with better water, including:
- Reducing Non-Revenue water so that water pressure could be stronger both at day and at night.
- 14,000 service lines have been replaced, over 650 water mains have been repaired and nearly 1,500 system valves have been cleaned.
- Extending water to services to more areas than ever before.
We’ve been working very hard to show we’re committed to growth, committed to quality. Give us a try; you’ll be glad you did.
Lots of people are surprised to find out we no longer barge water in to the capital, but instead use a reverse osmosis plant to turn salt water into fresh, potable water for use throughout the capital.
Our reverse osmosis plant provides 90% of the water used in New Providence and the water used in New Providence and the water meets the World Health Organization’s guidelines for safe drinking water.

SIGNING OF AN INDUSTRIAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE WATER AND SEWERAGE CORPORATION AND THE BAHAMAS UTILITY SERVICES AND ALLIED WORKERS UNION FOR THE PERIOD 2022 TO 2025
New Providence, The Bahamas: Tuesday, April 25th, 2023 | The Corporation (WSC) is pleased to have concluded and signed today an Industrial Agreement with the Bahamas Utility Services and Allied Workers Union (BUSAWU) who represents the WSC non-management staff and covers the period 1st July, 2022 to 30th June, 2025.
Our employees are our most important resource and we extend our sincere thanks to each and everyone of them from Grand Cay in the north to Inagua in the south. The last WSC – BUSAWU Industrial Agreement expired on 30th June, 2018. However, despite this long wait, our employees responded in fine form to the challenges during and post Hurricane Dorian in September 2019 and to the global COVID 19 pandemic which commenced in March 2020. While so many businesses were shuttered partially or fully during COVID 19, our employees worked day and night, seven (7) days a week, to ensure our valued customers across The Bahamas had ready access to a reliable supply of potable water and to operate and maintain our sewerage systems.
We sincerely thank BUSAWU’s President – Mr. Dwayne Woods and his team for partnering with us over the last year to improve the work environment at WSC. Our focus during the negotiations were to maintain, at all times, a harmonious industrial relations space characterized by transparency and open, honest communications between the parties.
Today’s signing is only possible thanks to the leadership and fulsome support of the Honorable Prime Minister, the Honorable Minister of Works & Utilities, the Honorable Minister of Labour & Immigration, WSC’s Executive Chairman & Board, the Financial Secretary, the Government’s Chief Labour Consultant and so many other stakeholders.
This Industrial Agreement, sets the framework for WSC’s current 386 non-management employees. Noting that the staff have not received any general increases in pay since the last agreement expired in 2018, this agreement includes for the staff to receive four (4) general increase increments over the period 2022 to 2025.
We also note the presence today of the President of the Water and Sewerage Management Union (WSMU) which represents WSC middle management staff. The last WSC – WSMU Industrial Agreement expired on 30th June, 2013 and we look forward to concluding our ongoing negotiations with them shortly and signing a new agreement for the period 2022 to 2025 in the next several weeks.
WSC Executive Chairman, Board and Executive Management thanks the leadership of both Unions and we look forward to working together as a team as we build an innovative, vibrant, dynamic WSC on the pathway of becoming a world class water and sanitation utility that meets and exceeds its customers’ expectations, is financially viable and operates in full compliance with all environmental and regulatory standards. ### About the WSC

EXTENSION OF WATER AND SEWERAGE CORPORATION (WSC) AND MIYA BAHAMAS LTD.NEW PROVIDENCE NON-REVENUE WATER (NRW) CONTRACT EXTENSION
New Providence, The Bahamas: The Corporation (WSC) is pleased to announce that we have signed a Contract Extension with MIYA Bahamas Limited to extend our New Providence Non-Revenue Water (NRW) Contract up to 31st December, 2026 which is inclusive of a comprehensive plan to transition the management of the NRW programme from MIYA to WSC.
The original Contract was signed on February 17, 2012, and expired on April 16, 2022. After review, it was decided to extend the contract to December 31, 2026 to allow for a planned and structured transfer of responsibility for this programme from MIYA Bahamas Limited to the Corporation when the new administration took office in September 2021.
This 4-year extension is valued at $19.1 million dollars which includes $14.5 million dollars in fixed fees and $4.6 million in performance fees. When combined with the prior Contract, the total Contract price to date is $106,746,750.
Partnerships of this nature are ones we see as the future of this Corporation driven by innovation. The principal highlights of this Contract Extension are: –
- A focus on building the institutional capacity within WSC with a WSC shadowing team fully in place by the end of 2023 (Year 1) and this team fully capable of taking over the project by the end of 2025 (Year 3).
- The achievement of a NRW target of 1.5 million imperial gallons per day by the end of 2026 (Year 4). The present NRW is in the 3.5 million imperial gallons per day range.
When project work began in January 2013, the NRW was 6.87 million imperial gallons per day, and WSC was having difficulty supplying New Providence with water continuously for 24 hours a day. Instead, water supply was being rationed with many areas without water supply for several hours each today. Our sales were in the range of around 5.3 million imperial gallons per day and it was difficult for us to attract any new major customers given our very challenging circumstances.
As we prepare to observe Earth Day on April 22nd, we are reminded of the significant choices the WSC had to make in 2010 on whether to continue expanding the production of energy-intensive desalinated water, which is highly dependent on imported fossil fuels. We made the bold decision to implement a program to reduce NRW based on performance, using water leading NRW experts in collaboration with Bahamian field teams and contractors.
This programme was honored with the 2022 WEX (The Water and Energy Exchange) Global Award in the category of Innovation in Financial Partnership held in Valcencia, Spain. Also, at the recent Caribbean Regional Conference held in Trinidad; this NRW programme was touted as a regional success story.
According to the project’s performance targets, it is predicted that the program has already saved close to 13.68 billion imperial gallons of water. By the end of 2026, these savings should reach 19.75 billion imperial gallons. The amount saved on water purchases is around $153,062,500, however that figure excludes the cost of any new infrastructure put in place as part of the project nor other WSC internal operational efficiency improvements.
Most importantly, the NRW programme has facilitated a marked increase in the reliability and continuity of WSC’s New Providence water supply with 24/7 supply now in place for many years and in parallel, WSC has been able to increase our water sales from approximately 5.3 million imperial gallons per day in 2013 to over 7.5 million imperial gallons per day with no increase in water production.
Most importantly, the NRW programme has enabled a significant improvement in the consistency and reliability of the Corporation’s New Providence water supply, which is now available around-the-clock for many years. In addition, WSC has been able to increase its water sales from about 5.3 million imperial gallons per day in 2013 to over 7.5 million imperial gallons per day with no increase in water production.
This Administration’s efforts to put the Corporation on the path to becoming a world-class water and sanitation utility that meets and exceeds its customers’ expectations, is financially viable, and operates in full compliance with all environmental regulations are dependent on the success of this project, which the Corporation is extremely pleased with. The continued success of this project in New Providence and the planned implementation of a similar project in the Family Islands are also crucial pillars in this Administration’s efforts. ### About the WSC

PRESS RELEASE -RUSSELL ISLAND WATER SUPPLY PROJECT COMMISSIONING AND VISIT TO NAVAL BASE (CENTRAL ELEUTHERA) AND BOGUE (NORTH ELEUTHERA) DESALINATION PLANTS – FEBRUARY 10, 2023
ELEUTHERA, BAHAMAS: The Corporation is pleased to announce the commissioning of the Russell Island Water Supply Project that included the installation of over 7,000 feet of 4-inch and 3,000 feet of 2-inch PVC water mains to serve over 100 homes on the island at a cost of approximately $600,000 utilizing the Corporation’s personnel and equipment in conjunction with various local subcontractors. Russell Island is rapidly expanding and the Corporation appreciates the importance of the provision of high quality piped potable water to sustain the development of the island.
Under the ministerial leadership of The Hon. Alfred Sears, KC, MP and its Board, led by Hon. Sylvanus Petty, MP, the Corporation’s Management has been charged with the urgent task of the development and implementation of an Action Plan to improve the reliability of the Corporation’s supply to all existing customers across the country, and to extend piped potable water supply to all remaining homes and businesses without a supply at the earliest possible opportunity.
With respect to Eleuthera specifically, this Action Plan to date includes: –
- The Corporation has contracted over $6,250,000 in storage tank works for Eleuthera. This includes: –
A. Refurbishment of the existing 365,000 imperial gallon storage tank on Spanish Wells.
B. 1,500,000 imperial gallons in new potable water storage tanks for the Bogue and another 1,500,000 imperial gallons for the Naval Base. These works have commenced in phases and will be fully completed by this summer.
C. 500,000 imperial gallons in new potable water storage tanks for Harbour Island. This Contract was recently awarded and we are awaiting the Contractor’s timeline. - Working closely with our Desalination Contractor to improve the reliability of all of our desalination plants on Eleuthera and to expand the desalination production capacity at both our Bogue and Naval Base facilities. Two (2) desalination plants with a combined capacity of approximately 260,000 imperial gallons per day have arrived in New Providence and are presently being cleared. It is expected that these units will be shipped to our Naval Base facility shortly and will be fully operational by late April 2023 increasing the overall production capacity of that plant from the present 450,000 imperial gallons per day to 710,000 imperial gallons per day. At the Bogue, the plan is to increase the production capacity from 600,000 imperial gallons per day to 800,000 imperial gallons per day and we are awaiting the Contractor’s formal timeline on those works. These desalination improvement works are valued at several million dollars.
- The Corporation in conjunction with the Ministry of Finance is presently negotiating with the Caribbean Development Bank for a Bahamas Water Supply Project Phase II Loan in the range of $25,000,000 to $30,000,000. It is estimated that between $5,000,000 to $10,000,000 of this amount will be dedicated to improving critical water transmission and distribution mains across Eleuthera.
- The Corporation is working with our utility partner, the Bahamas Power and Light Company Limited (BPL) and our Ministry – the Ministry of Works & Utilities to address the power supply/demand issues at our desalination facilities and this includes ongoing discussions to introduce alternative energy supply solutions for these plants.
As recently announced by Minister Sears, the Government is determined to position “WSC on the path to becoming a world class water and sanitation utility that meets and exceeds customer expectations, is financially viable and operates in full compliance with all environmental and regulatory standards”. The Corporation has accepted this challenge and we are working to improve the level of our service to all customers across Eleuthera and The Bahamas.

Eleuthera / Harbour Island
Beautiful Eleuthera consists of rolling hills and valleys interspersed with shallow lakes and ponds and large areas of natural coppice. The coast lines alternate from steep rocky cliffs to amazing beaches. This island has had a fascinating history which includes that of the Eleutherian Adventurers and the establishment of the first Republic in the New World. Offshore islands like Harbour Island, Spanish Wells, and Royal Island each have their own aspects of historical interest. The W&SC provides water to all sectors of the island, mostly from desalination sources though it is still using the Bogue Wellfield in the north as a natural source of supply. Tarpum Bay’s desalination facility is unique in that it is expected to be powered predominantly by wind energy starting in 2014. If successful, renewable energy could be used at other facilities on the island and elsewhere in The Bahamas. There are offices located in the main settlements like Governor’s Harbour, Rock Sound, Dunmore Town, and Spanish Wells.

Long Island
The Atlantic coastline of Long Island is spectacular and provides a wonderful contrast to the more tranquil bays and coves on the west side. Being a long thin island with hilly ridges extending from the north all the way to the south, Long Island is not well endowed with freshwater and consequently the W&SC provides most of the water supplied using a desalination plant located in the Mangrove Bush area. There is a small groundwater supply in Simms but this is due to be replaced by another desalination plant. At present the central Long Island supply extends from Greys down to Turtle Cove in the south but plans are in place to extend this system to Salt Pond in the north and to Clarence Town in the south. The W&SC also provides a tanker service which delivers water to all sectors of the island. Because Long Island has a low rainfall the tanker service is kept very busy for most of the year. Customer service is provided from an office in Mangrove Bush.

The W&SC provides water to all sectors of the island, mostly from desalination sources though it is still using the Bogue Wellfield in the north as a natural source of supply. Tarpum Bay’s desalination facility is unique in that it is expected to be powered predominantly by wind energy starting in 2014. If successful, renewable energy could be used at other facilities on the island and elsewhere in The Bahamas. There are offices located in the main settlements like Governor’s Harbour, Rock Sound, Dunmore Town, and Spanish Wells.

The Exumas
This exquisite chain of islands with turquoise seas and pristine beaches is a boater’s paradise, and it extends over a distance of 90 miles from Beacon Cay in the north down to Hog Cay in the south. The chain of islands contains the world famous Exuma Cays Land and Sea National Park, formed by an Act of Parliament on July 13th 1959. The W&SC provides water produced by the desalination process of reverse osmosis on Great Exuma, from Rolleville in the north down to Rolle Town in the south, and in Staniel Cay, Black Point, and Farmer’s Cay. The main office and centre of operations is located in George Town.

Cat Island
This hilly island includes many miles of infrequently-visited shoreline with beautiful beaches, and reefs. There is also a rich cultural and historical record which makes Cat Island an interesting place for visitors with both social and environmental interests to explore. At this phase in Cat Island’s development the W&SC only provides water supplied by tanker but service is made available to all sectors of the island. Plans are in place for proper piped supplies to be provided in all the residential communities.

Long Island
The Atlantic coastline of Long Island is spectacular and provides a wonderful contrast to the more tranquil bays and coves on the west side. Being a long thin island with hilly ridges extending from the north all the way to the south, Long Island is not well endowed with freshwater and consequently the W&SC provides most of the water supplied using a desalination plant located in the Mangrove Bush area. There is a small groundwater supply in Simms but this is due to be replaced by another desalination plant. At present the central Long Island supply extends from Greys down to Turtle Cove in the south but plans are in place to extend this system to Salt Pond in the north and to Clarence Town in the south. The W&SC also provides a tanker service which delivers water to all sectors of the island. Because Long Island has a low rainfall the tanker service is kept very busy for most of the year. Customer service is provided from an office in Mangrove Bush.

San Salvador
San Salvador is characterized by the hills and lakes that dominate the centre of the island. The shorelines have many picturesque bays with white sandy beaches, and these as well as several features of historical interest, like Columbus’ Landfall, make the island interesting to visitors. Fishing and diving are popular activities, and the Gerace Research Station also brings many students and scientists to the island. Water is provided by the W&SC using a desalination plant located near to Cockburn Town, where there is an office for customer service.

Long Cay
These pristine islands are very much as they have been for the last two hundred years though their populations are actually now a lot smaller than they were in the 1800s, and in the days of the salt industry, and sponging. They are generally well endowed with coppice forests, and feature many beautiful coves, bays, and headlands. Christopher Columbus dubbed these islands as “the fragrant islands”. The shallow waters they enclose, known as the Bight of Acklins, is reportedly one of the best bonefishing locations in the world. The W&SC provides water to the Salina Point, and Snug Corner areas, using reverse osmosis sources, and also operates a small plant on Long Cay. Groundwater resources are used to supply Colonel Hill, Lovely Bay, and Chesters.

Mayaguana
Mayaguana remains largely undeveloped though it features miles of white-sand beach, and healthy off-shore coral reefs. A simple well field system provides water to Pirates Well and Betsey Bay, and plans are in place to replace this by a reverse osmosis source, which will also supply the community of Abrahams Bay.

Inagua
This large low-lying island is probably the most arid in the Bahamas, and as a consequence lacks appreciable water resources, but supports a viable salt harvesting industry based on natural evaporation processes. The island includes the Inagua National Park which is the home of one of the largest flamingo flocks in the world. Other wild life of interest include wild donkeys and boars, and the Bahama Parrot. The W&SC has to provide water produced by desalination from a plant located in Matthew Town in the same location as its office.
