CABINET NOTES: The Antigua Public Utilities Authority (APUA) has reported to the Cabinet significant progress in its national water production capacity and infrastructure modernization efforts.

As of this week, APUA has successfully achieved 9.2 million gallons of water production per day, marking a substantial improvement in supply reliability for consumers across Antigua and Barbuda.

The Authority further anticipates reaching 10.6 million gallons per day by next week, continuing its aggressive push to stabilize and expand national water output.

As part of its commitment to reducing system losses and improving overall efficiency, APUA will introduce a Faults Management System designed to monitor and detect leaks throughout the distribution network in real time.

This new system will strengthen APUA’s ability to respond rapidly to disruptions, minimize water loss, and enhance service delivery to households and businesses.

In addition, APUA will begin the installation of 1,000 smart meters across the country. These advanced devices will help curtail meter tampering, ensure accurate consumption readings, and support the Authority’s broader modernization and digitalization initiatives.

Regarding the ongoing dredging of the Crabbs Harbour, APUA confirmed to the Cabinet that approximately 80,000 cubic meters of dredging material remain.

This final phase is expected to be completed within three to four months, paving the way for the efficient operation of the Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) plant at Crabbs. The LNG facility represents a key component of the nation’s long-term energy strategy.

APUA says that it remains committed to improving utility services, investing in critical infrastructure, and ensuring that the people of Antigua and Barbuda benefit from reliable, modern, and sustainable public utilities.
