As the Wa­ter and Sew­er­age Au­thor­i­ty (WASA) push­es ahead with its na­tion­wide in­fra­struc­ture re­view, of­fi­cials toured key Cen­tral Re­gion fa­cil­i­ties on Sat­ur­day, meet­ing with MPs who pressed the agency to move from promis­es to per­for­mance.

The in­spec­tion in­clud­ed stops at the Carlsen Field Wa­ter Treat­ment Plant and the Navet Wa­ter­works in Tabaquite, both of which serve large ar­eas that have long strug­gled with an un­re­li­able wa­ter sup­ply.

Dr David Lee, Mem­ber of Par­lia­ment for Ca­roni Cen­tral and Min­is­ter of Hous­ing, joined the WASA team at Carlsen Field and made it clear that his con­stituents are tired of wait­ing. He warned WASA of­fi­cials that im­prove­ments must be de­liv­ered, not just dis­cussed.
