More water cuts again for thousands of residents in Tamavua, Samabula and Lami.
The Water Authority of Fiji says due to the heavy rain experienced this afternoon, the Savura raw water intake is flooded and blocked resulting in a reduced inflow into the Tamavua Water Treatment Plant from 75 million litres a day to 40 million litres a day, which further impacts service reservoir levels.
People are advised to store water and also harvest rainwater as an alternative.
