The National Water Commission (NWC) is advising customers in sections of Kingston and St. Andrew that the water supply schedule currently in effect will be further adjusted as severe drought conditions continue to impact the Constant Spring network.
The revised schedule forms part of an enhanced drought-management strategy designed to preserve available water resources. The change follows continued declines in storage levels at the Hermitage Dam, which is currently at 31.4 percent of capacity.

The NWC acknowledges that some communities may experience challenges receiving water according to the schedule due to factors such as location, terrain, and elevation. To assist these customers, trucked water will be made available upon request.
Customers requiring trucked water may contact the NWC Customer Care Centre toll-free at 888-225-5692.
Customers are urged to ensure they have adequate water storage in place to last through non-supply hours and to carefully manage stored supplies. The NWC also reminds all customers that a prohibition notice is currently in effect. As such, customers must desist from all non-essential water use, including washing vehicles, watering lawns and gardens, filling pools, and pressure washing driveways.
The NWC will continue to closely monitor dam levels, system performance, and prevailing drought conditions and will provide updates as necessary.
For additional information and service updates, customers may contact the NWC Customer Care Centre at 888-225-5692 or follow @nwcjam on all social media platforms.
