Media Release: WASCO to recommence Bouton Water Supply Project



COURT PROCEEDINGS TEMPORARILY DELAYED THE PROJECT.
by WASCO

The Water and Sewerage Company Inc. (WASCO), will now move ahead with plans to improve water distribution to residents of Bouton, following a judgement in its favour, handed down by the high court this week.

On Nov. 5, the High Court of Saint Lucia dismissed court actions filed against WASCO concerning the Belvedere/Bouton Water Supply Project. The land earmarked for the project had been vested in the crown, however, as a result of an injunction filed by the previous land owner in April 2018, preparatory works on the project came to a halt, until the matter was resolved in court. The high court actions commenced in April and May 2018 respectively which prevented WASCO from completing the Belvedere/Bouton Project within the estimated time frame.
