The Barbados Water Authority (BWA) said that again today it has been forced to stop pumping from stations at Bowmanston, St John and the Mount, St Peter.
In a press release, BWA said: “The situation is a direct result of the continued dry spell the island is experiencing and at present appears to be a daily occurrence, as the aquifer is not being replenished fast enough for pumping to be continuous.”
