national Water System Development Plan for Dominica will cost government in excess of approximately $191 million.<\/p>\n<p>In his address at a ground-breaking ceremony to commission work on the Delices water supply project on Tuesday, Austrie said the plan, which was recently completed by the Dominica Sewerage Company (DOWASCO ), proposes a number of projects to improve every water system on the island.<\/p>\n<p>The development plan will also increase the coverage of reliable and portable water in every community, according to Austrie.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis plan will cost the government of Dominica, the people of Dominica and DOWASCO 191 million dollars,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, management of Dominica\u2019s water resource is essential in an effort to preserve the vital commodity.<\/p>\n<p>He said government has placed a lot of emphasis on water resource management.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 0pt; line-height: 150%;\">\n<p
