The National Water Commission is advising customers in some sections of St. Catherine that their water supply will be disrupted from Tuesday, November 1, 2022 to Sunday, November 6, 2022.

This disruption is to facilitate the urgent extraction and repair of the pumping unit at the Marlie Mount water supply system, which has developed a mechanical problem.

Customers are being encouraged to store water for use during the period of disruption. However, trucked water will be provided upon request.

Areas to be impacted are: Marlie Mount, parts of Marlie Acres, sections of Old Harbour, some communities of Church Pen, Old Harbour Villa, and Island Farm

The NWC regrets any inconvenience that may be caused and craves the patience and understanding of its valued customers.
