The Virgin Islands Waste Management Authority advises the community that the LBJ Pump Station is currently offline due to mechanical issues. As a result, wastewater overflows are occurring in the immediate area and parts of Christiansted.
The VIWMA staff are working diligently to complete the necessary repairs to restore service.
Motorists and pedestrians are advised to exercise caution, as runoff may contain contaminants or pollutants harmful to human health. Residents should avoid areas with runoff, including gutters, puddles, manholes, and drainage basins, as well as any locations that appear discolored or emit foul odors.
We understand the inconvenience this may cause and rely on your cooperation as we resolve this matter. The VIWMA remains dedicated to providing reliable services and appreciates the community’s ongoing support and understanding.
