Residents around Lami Town who live in lowlying areas are frustrated that they do not have water from Monday.
Concerns have been raised that the Water Supply Department insists that only residents living in high areas of Delainavesi do not have water however some residents in lowlying areas of Lami said they too do not have normal water supply and there is no carting of water.
Water department Spokesperson Maika Nagalu said they are working on normalising water supply in Lami as arrangements have been made for water trucks to cart water in these areas.
Meanwhile, a resident of Tuirara in Makoi Nasinu Jyoti Raj also raised concern that water disruptions are leading to many problems in their area.
Nagalu said it is not clear yet how soon they will be able to restore water in these areas.
Nagalu added water supply in most areas outside Suva City have been restored as engineers are working towards normalising water supply in the City.
In the Western Division, water supply in about 80% of Lautoka has been normalised this morning.
Most areas in Nadi still donot have power supply but most areas have started receiving water from yesterday.
For Sigatoka, the water authorities are removing silt from the Natovu intake so that residents receive clean water when supply is normalised later today.
Only 6 percent of Ba residents are receiving water supply as Nadrau pumping station which has a generator is supplying water to some areas.
In Tavua, about 90% of the residents are now receiving water and only 50% residents in Rakiraki are receiving water supply.
