The Water Authority of Fiji needs a clear pathway for planning to be able to supply quality water to consumers.

Authority Chief Executive Opetaia Ravai says an estimated $30 million dollars in pipe replacement over three years has been one of the major works carried out by the authority.

The twenty year master plan for Suva – Nausori, Nadi – Lautoka,Sigatoka and Labasa is basically letting the agencies know of our plans, the reality on the ground in terms of demand and supply and the need to invest in infrastructure upgrades if we are to meet the demands for the next twenty years.

Ravai says the authority aims to add to the existing work done which includes a liquid trade waste policy that is awaiting approval.
