0

"It farts on all sides!" “, Can we read on social networks. The comments indicating breakages on the water network have been numerous for several days. Breakage would be concentrated in a residence in Semsamar and in Orient Bay. Some deduce that they are due to the chlorine dioxide used to disinfect the network following the bromate crisis. The question was asked by an elected majority during the last territorial council.

Patrick Lentz, the director of the water establishment, wanted to reassure: “there is no more breakage than usual. Chlorine dioxide weakens the pipes but in the long run, after ten or fifteen years, not after a few weeks. ” But to admit that there is a “crisis of confidence” with regard to water services.

According to other sources, regular breaks on private networks or inside condominiums or subdivisions are due to a lack of maintenance of said networks and the non-installation of pressure regulators as recommended.

About invoices

During the various questions session of the territorial council on January 31, Patrick Lentz was also questioned about invoices, the amounts of which are very large. For the most part, these are sums corresponding to the time consumption of La Générale des Eaux, Saur (the new concessionaire for a year), not having access to these files. “The problem is that there is no one from Générale des Eaux to whom to contact to dispute the invoices. So we asked her to send someone over to look at these invoices and resolve the issues, ”he said.
