Dry Weather Increases Water Demand, Limited Supply in Some Areas - National Water Board..!

The National Water Supply and Drainage Board announces challenges in maintaining continuous water supply due to the ongoing dry weather and the resulting increase in daily water demand.

According to Anoja Kaluarachchi, Deputy General Manager of the NWSDB, some areas have experienced limited water supply or low water pressure. 

The Board has also established a hotline for residents to lodge complaints regarding water supply issues.

On a positive note, Kaluarachchi added that the temporary salt barrier to prevent saltwater intrusion at the Ambatale and Biyagama water pumping stations has been completed.
