The Water Resources Board has issued a statement regarding ongoing disruptions to the water supply across several areas of the island, attributing the issue to the extremely dry weather conditions prevailing recently.
According to the Board, the prolonged dry weather has caused a significant reduction in the water levels of various watersheds, affecting the overall availability of water.
In light of the situation, the Board has urged the public to use water sparingly and be mindful of their consumption to ensure an adequate supply for essential needs. The low water levels are particularly concerning in high-altitude areas, where low-pressure conditions may cause intermittent disruptions to the water supply.
Residents in these affected areas are encouraged to take extra precautions, including reducing water usage for non-essential purposes and storing water for emergencies. The Water Board continues to monitor the situation and will provide further updates as necessary.
The public’s cooperation in conserving water is vital in overcoming the current crisis and ensuring that everyone has access to this essential resource.
