Cayon residents vent frustration over four days without water

“I know it’s early but today is another working day and still no water in Cayon. Days now we going without water and nobody saying nothing or at least I ain’t hear no explanation as to why the community without a water supply after so many days on constant rain. One of the tanks we do get water from when water is gone already empty, Where we suppose to get water from to use? Somebody needs to say something and fix whatever problem they got cause water is needed,” one complainant said to BuckieGotIt.

“This good morning and I pissed eh. They need to get like SKELEC. We need we get notices on what’s going on. Water Department forming the fool. For a paying customer like me this is nonsense,” said another villager.

Another Cayon resident wrote: “Is true Buckie. We getting no water in Cayon. I have to go to work this morning an I can’t take my bath because there is no water.”

Venting frustration another Cayon resident complained that it is since Friday that Cayon is out of water. “It came back a little on Saturday morning. Since Saturday afternoon no water in Cayon. Lawd, today is Monday. We want to what’s going on for real. This is really ridiculous,” the individual said.

Monday morning after the complaints went public, the Water Department issued a statement informing Cayon residents of “an ongoing unplanned service interruption due to a two-fold problem presently being addressed.”

“A blockage at the surface water source is restricting the flow of water to the storage reservoir and a break has occurred in a main distribution line resulting in low levels at the reservoir,” said the statement.
