WATER SUPPLY TO RESIDENTS OF CENTRAL ELEUTHERA – REPAIRS COMPLETED AT NAVAL BASE DESALINATION PLANT – Monday June 24, 2024 (4PM) Update

Eleuthera, Bahamas: The Water and Sewerage Corporation (WSC) wishes to update our valued customers regarding an extended reduction in its level of service since Monday June 17 within the Central Eleuthera zone, which includes settlements from Gregory Town in the north to Savannah Sound in the south.
The latest update is that both desalination trains at the Naval Base Desalination Plant are now operational. Teams are continuing to monitor the repaired works closely to ensure the works meets the required performance specifications.
As storage levels increase, residents should experience an improvement in their water supply this afternoon and into this evening. In tandem, WSC will continue the free tankering of water to locations at higher elevations and those at the extreme ends of our system who would have experienced extended periods of low pressure and/or no water and in parallel, our teams are also delivering free 1-gallon and 5-gallon bottles of water to senior citizens and those without access to transportation to collect such supplies.
The Water and Sewerage Corporation sincerely apologizes to our valued customers in Central Eleuthera for the inconvenience caused by this extended reduction in water supply. We are committed to providing uninterrupted potable water supply and strive to return to normal service swiftly when disruptions occur. We appreciate and thank our customers for their loyalty and patience during this challenging time. Thank you for your understanding.
