DOWASCO is pleased to announce that the majority of materials (pipes, fittings, and appurtenances) for the highly anticipated Water Sector Strategic Development Project (WSSDP) have been received in Dominica, and preparation work is now underway to enhance the water supply systems in several communities across Dominica.
The WSSDP is being executed by DOWASCO with financing from the Caribbean Development Bank (CDB) under the United Kingdom Caribbean Infrastructure Fund (UKCIF) Programme, with funding pledged by the UK Government following the devastation of Hurricane Maria.
In addition to improving water infrastructure, the WSSDP will provide employment opportunities for several residents across the communities where it will be implemented.
DOWASCO is in the process of engaging Community Liaison Officers (CLOs), site technicians, and temporary workers (skilled and unskilled) to commence work on the ground.
Small, local contractors will also be invited to bid for various components of the project.
This project will have a significant, positive impact on the water infrastructure in Castle Bruce, Grand Fond, Riviere Cyrique, Morne Jaune, West Coast (Salisbury, Coulibistrie, Grand Savanne), and Calibishie as critical upgrades will ensure a more reliable, efficient, and sustainable water supply to these communities.
As part of the preparatory phase of the project, initial groundwork has already begun in Grand Fond, where rehabilitation of the access road to the intake is ongoing. This marks the first step in what promises to be a transformative initiative for these communities.
Further updates will be provided as the project progresses.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
