City water system down in Bocas since last night


FURTHER UPDATE: As of 6 PM, there is still no water service in Bocas Town. The water company, IDAAN, is giving out a load of crap, telling my staff (who call every half hour) that it will be fixed "within an hour." Its been about 18 hours since the heavy duty pump needed to pump extra hard when the reservoir is low (which it is, due to drought during what is supposed to be the "rainy season") failed and I guess they still have not been able to repair it enough to get water to the municipal tank. They are unwilling to discuss the problem or give us more detailed explanations of why it is not working, what it will take to get it working, and what the REAL time estimate is for when the pump will either be fixed or a new one delivered.....and the weatherman is predicting another two weeks of sunny days in Bocas.

Most of the restaurants still have water because they have reserve rainwater systems ...but hotels, who have lots of people taking showers every day are mostly out of water or will be within a few hours if they don't fix the system soon.

My staff called to tell me water went on about 8:30 or 9 PM last night. Some people in town got it a couple of hours earlier.
