Water chief promises no cuts during Games

Port Moresby City residents can rest assured that water supply to their homes will not be disrupted during the Pacific Games in July.

Eda Ranu chief executive officer Henry Mokono says all venues of the Pacific Games are connected to the main water supply.

With 15 – 20 thousand people expected to arrive in the country the demand for water will also be high.

“We are ready and we are working closely with the Games infrastructure committee to ensure water will not be interrupted unnecessarily,” Mokono guaranteed.

He says City residents will not be affected during the games as they have six water reservoirs to supply water throughout the city.

Each of the reservoirs has a capacity of 9 million litres.  And other backup water storages are also in strategic locations throughout the city.

Monoko says Eda Ranu workers will be on the ground to ensure water issues are addressed efficiently.

He says they will closely monitor the flow of water during the games and that there will be no shut down.
