On Thursday, 13 June 2024, a mechanical malfunction resulted in the temporary intrusion of saline water into the product stream of one of the plant’s reverse osmosis units. This led to a brief period where some customers may have experienced water with elevated sodium content.

The issue has been promptly rectified, and our team of qualified technicians is currently conducting a comprehensive flushing of distribution lines. Additionally, a rigorous evaluation of water

quality is underway to ensure it meets all established APUA standards.

Some customers who may have experienced saltier water can be assured that fresh, high-quality water is now flowing through the system and will soon replace the previously distributed water.
