Kindly grant me a space in your letters column. We are suffering daily water outages on the Essequibo Coast (Dartmouth and neighbouring villages) for some time now.
The water is cut off during the day and later at night, which is very inconvenient for residents, especially the poorer citizens who cannot afford overhead water tanks or electrical pump systems.
If you fall short on your payments you are quickly disconnected. You then have to clear your accounts, pay a hefty reconnection fee, then wait up to fifteen days for reconnection. So it is very unfair to cut off our water, especially since we have meters connected so we pay for every drop. I do hope the President sees this letter and do something to ease our woes. Thank you.
Yours truly,
S. Blaine
