One hundred and sixty-eight villagers of Natadradave Village in Dawasamu, Tailevu, now have access to piped drinking water.
The Rural Water Project which cost over $212, 000 included the construction of a new dam and a 10,000 gallon water tank.
The project has improved conditions for the villagers, as over the years, they’ve been experiencing intermittent water supply.
