AT A TIME when St Joseph residents are crying out over dry taps, a Barbados Water Authority (BWA) reservoir has been leaking for six months.
The leak is so bad that more than 50 acres of ripe canes were flooded and could not be reaped.
A resident who requested anonymity said he had been complaining about the leaking BWA storage facility since March, but his cries seemed to have fallen on deaf ears.
The man, who had access to a tractor, recently took a MIDWEEK NATION team on a tour of the flooded fields, which he said should never have reached this stage. (MR)
