As a precautionary principle, the Collectivité of Saint-Martin informs in a press release that the water distributed on the network is prohibited for consumption until further notice!
By territorial decree N ° CAB010-2019, President Daniel Gibbs exercises his police powers and temporarily prohibits the consumption of city water following analyzes carried out by the ARS. It is a precautionary measure.
Indeed, in view of the analyzes carried out by the ARS at several sampling points on the Saint-Martin public water network which show a high rate of bromates, the consumption of water distributed by the public network is prohibited temporarily for uses such as drinking, cooking food and brushing teeth. Other uses are authorized.
The return to a normal situation can only be effective when the ARS publishes a notice of compliance of water with the quality standards in force.
The Water and Sanitation Establishment of Saint-Martin (EEASM) and the SAUR company will have to implement the necessary measures for the sanitation of the water distribution network by the appropriate measures for a rapid return to normal. .
It is above all a precautionary measure, the establishment of Waters will communicate more fully on the measures implemented, from Monday, June 24, 2019.
