Prime Minister, Andrew Holness (Front Row 2nd left) inks deal with European Water Company, Miya Jamaica, represented by Country Manager Alvaro Ramalho (Front Row 2nd Right), to undertake the Portmore Co-Management NRW Reduction Programme.
Residents, businesses and institutions in Portmore, St Catherine should expect significant improvements to their water distribution system and billing, as the National Water Commission (NWC) in collaboration with Miya Jamaica is set to commence immediate water works under the new Portmore Co-management, Non-Revenue Water (NRW) Reduction Programme.
Commenting on the programme, Prime Minister Andrew Holness said: “What we are doing here today is a step in the right direction; we are maintaining the infrastructure in a smart way; detecting the leaks and putting in steps for social engagement and interaction with the citizen. Bringing in a company like Miya, which has deep and extensive experience in water management made sense.”
