Reverse Osmosis for St. John and St. Croix

This is from The Source Today:

Reverse Osmosis for St. John and St. Croix

A $981,000 grant from the Department of the Interior is on its way to pay for installation of a reverse osmosis plant in St. John, according to Hodge. In addition, WAPA board members gave Hodge conditional permission to execute a contract with Seven Seas Water on St. Thomas, for a reverse osmosis plant on St. Croix. Currently WAPA charges between $14.90 to $16.90 per thousand gallons of water produced. The Seven Seas contract is contingent on WAPA negotiating a deal that reduces consumer costs.

Anthony,

That is really great that the grant was awarded for the reverse osmosis plant in St. John and St. Croix. The quality of water will be much improved, as well as the lifestyles of the residents. If they can negotiate the costs down a little bit, this is a great deal. thanks for the news.
