Bermuda Water Company Investing $2.5 million in Upgrades

Bermuda Water Company is addressing critical water investments to upgrade the local water systems. Approximately $2.5 million of investment is underway, including over 1,550 feet of water main installation.

Sean Twomey, President of Bermuda Water Company said, “While much of the country’s water systems often go unnoticed, they deliver life-sustaining and public health support every single day. These systems are aging and need continuous investment to avoid crisis situations like we’ve seen in communities where investment needs are ignored. At Bermuda Water Company we work hard to upgrade our local systems so our customers can continue to trust the service we deliver now and in the future. Our customers support these important investments by paying their bill.”

According to Twomey, investments in the local water systems include, among other investments, rehabilitating Well 2 and upsizing discharge pipes to allow for larger production.

Rob Powelson, President and CEO of National Association of Water Companies (NAWC) said, “Communities nationwide are facing massive fiscal challenges to replace water and wastewater infrastructure and effectively manage their systems. Water-related services are extremely capital intensive – more so than electric, natural gas and telecom – which is why it is important water companies take a proactive investment strategy to ensure our country’s water future. We commend Bermuda Water Company for their continued focus on investment that goes a long way toward ensuring safety and reliability.”
