The Virgin Islands Waste Management Authority (VIWMA) advises the St. John community of a strong odor in the Cruz Bay area that is being emitted from the Cruz Bay Wastewater Treatment Plant. The odor is a result of the blower at the station being offline from recent power outages, which occurred beginning Sunday, June 27.
The treatment plant has since resumed operations; however, a residual odor remains which should dissipate within the next 24-48 hours.
For more information, contact the Division of Education and Communications Management at 513-4171 or email communications@viwma.org. Also, follow VIWMA on Facebook, LinkedIn and/or Twitter.
