The Water and Sewerage Authority (WASA) has been ordered to pay more than $100,000 in compensation to a San Juan business owner whose store and stock were damaged by a faulty sewer pipeline almost five years ago.
Although Justice Frank Seepersad upheld Matthew Edwards’ lawsuit in March last year, High Court Master Coreen Findley assessed the amount of compensation on Wednesday.
In his claim, Edwards, who operates a store selling DVDs, computer parts, toys and ice cream from a rented building in San Juan, said the problem with WASA’s sewer pipeline began in late October 2021.
