The APUA Water Business Unit wishes to provide an update regarding emergency maintenance at the Crabbs and Pigeon Point Reverse Osmosis Plants.
Both facilities remain temporarily offline due to unforeseen mechanical and technical failures. Our maintenance team is actively working to resolve these issues; however, due to the complexity of the repairs, we are currently unable to provide a restoration timeline.
In the interim, water will be diverted from alternative sources for distribution. Customers may experience low water pressure or periods of no water during this process.
Once production and distribution resume, please note that it may take up to 48 hours for the distribution system to fully recharge and restore normal water delivery to all affected
areas.

We in seaview farm starving for water presently n now its gonna be worse than ever. SMH! . Same bull shit all over again.
With the modern technological advancement we seems to be going backwards on the water issues. It’s full time to get this right .
PM our storage facilities are paramount to mitigate against times like these.
So we have two majority crisis on our hands, infrastructure and security.
I saw APUA running new pipelines just outside the Halls property/ Animal farm. Are they going to did back up the roads or even the shoulder that CO Williams been working on for ever.
Our national security is in shambles. Instead of being reacting we need to be proactive. So let’s sit in town halls and have some very serious discussion.
If we don’t start planning immediately they are both going to get worst. We need short term goals and long term goals.
Thd people of Antigua are in mood to come together for our security. We need to revisit our immigration policies. The USA is deporting thousands of criminals and if we do not tighten up our immigration and border security things are going to get out of hand. I recently met a Haitian young man. He explained to me that he came here by sea on a fishing boat vis St. Martin. So like America if you get here illegally you should not be able to become a legal citizen. If you come here for vacation, for carnival after carnival go back where you are from. The law says if you are coming to work here that the work permits applications must be done before. This stands for Black, whites and pink . Serian , African or other Caribbean nationals .
Our peace and security is more important than economic power house. If both cannot be achieved at the same time, then it’s time to slow it down.
I have come to the conclusion tha APUA technicians are woefully unskilled and lack the proper training for the tasks at hand. It seems like they only learned on the job thus regurgitating the ill conceived teachings of their ‘teacher’. Where in the caribbean you can have soooo much power outages, water disruptions and the like.
I have been to curacao and aruba and they are NOT plagued with these problems as nations with scarcity of rain falls…but yet still, the water supply is more than adequate.
Every other week/s its emergency this or emergency that…after tens of millions of investments..
Seems like a bunch of laggards incompetence running APUA.
Shape up or ship out…
