This initiative underscores ongoing efforts to enhance access to safe and reliable potable water for communities across the region.

During the informative tour, Station Manager Mr. Eric Avornyo provided detailed briefings on the station’s operational processes, existing production levels, and its critical contribution to supplying clean water to various communities in the Volta Region. The visit highlighted both the strengths of the current setup and the opportunities available for modernization and scaling up output to meet growing demand.
