Male’ Water and Sewerage Company Limited (MWSC) has completed the construction of the Reverse Osmosis (RO) facility and borehole drilling works as part of the water and sewerage project in Fainu, Raa Atoll.

MWSC commenced fieldwork for the project to establish the water supply and sewerage systems in Fainu in October last year. The state-owned utility company stated the tank foundation casting and water and sewerage network pipe-laying works are now in progress.

The government contracted MWSC to establish the water supply and sewerage systems in Fainu in November 2020. The company is tasked with completing the project by June 2022 at a cost of USD4 million.

The project is expected to provide clean water to 130 households in Fainu with two RO plants, which will generate 20 tonnes of clean water per day. The project will also establish one container capable of preserving 490 cubic metres of water and two containers that can preserve 175 cubic metres of water each. Furthermore, MWSC will be connecting 130 households to the sewerage system.
