The Antigua Public Utilities Authority (APUA) has announced its first water rate increase in over thirty years due to rising production costs, necessitating limited rate hikes.<\/p>\n

APUA’s Water Business Unit highlighted relentless efforts to combat water scarcity, including costly options like sea water harvesting.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/div>\n

Over the past decade, APUA invested significantly in new infrastructure, such as Reverse Osmosis Plants and HDPE pipes.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The rate adjustments, effective April 1, 2024, will impact Commercial, Cruise Port, and Bulk Sales customers, increasing rates from $50.00 to $60.00 per 1,000 gals.<\/p>\n

APUA assures customers of maintaining competitive rates and international service standards.<\/p>
