Residents of Upper Kingshill (Pierce), Mahaut and Belfast are experiencing an intermittent water supply, and the Dominica Water and Sewerage Company (DOWASCO) is investigating the disruptions. Households in the three communities have been warned to expect low water pressure while the problem is being looked into.

The notice affects three areas that rely on the national water network, and the utility has not stated what is causing the interruptions. Customers who depend on a steady flow for drinking, cooking and household use are being asked to plan for periods when water may be unavailable or weak at the tap.

The available information does not give a timeline for when normal supply will be restored. The full text of the utility's notice was also cut off in the material available to this newsroom, so further details on the work under way, or on any scheduled repairs, could not be confirmed.

Residents who need updates are advised to follow official announcements from DOWASCO as the investigation continues. Dominica 1 will report any further information from the utility once it is confirmed.
