The National Water Commission (NWC) is reporting that it has moved to further tighten water supply to customers in sections of the Corporate Area due to the continued decline at the Mona Reservoir amid persistent dry conditions.

The NWC, in a media release on Tuesday, said the reservoir is now at 35.9 per cent of capacity.

As a result, the commission said it has to carefully manage the available storage in an effort to maintain supply for as long as possible.
