The National Water Commission [NWC] will today begin implementing restrictions to some Corporate Area communities due to storage declines at the Mona Reservoir and the Hope Water Treatment Plant.
The NWC reported that, as of Saturday, the Mona Reservoir in St Andrew was at 66.1% of its capacity or 534.8 million gallons, with the storage levels decreasing quickly.
It said limited inflows have been contributing to declining storage levels at the Hope Water Treatment Plant.
The communities of Mona Heights, Cross Roads, Mountain View, Old Hope Road, Hope Road, Hope Flats, Papine, Gordon Town, Beverly Hills, Ravina, Mona Road, Devon Square, Waterloo Road, and Cassia Park will now be getting water 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily.
So too will Eastwood Park Road, Half-Way Tree Road, Upper Maxfield Avenue, Vineyard Town, Manley Meadows, Windward Road, Glenmore Road, South Camp Road, Franklyn Town, downtown Kingston and Harbour View.
Similarly, the communities of Hope Pastures, Mona, Liguanea, sections of Barbican, Kintyre, Gordon Town, Mona Heights, Goldsmith Villa and August Town, which are served by the Hope plant, will receive water 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily.
