ST. CROIX, U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS – November 5, 2024 – The Virgin Islands Water & Power Authority (“WAPA” or the “Authority”) is notifying customers of a scheduled water outage in Campo Rico (Whim), St. Croix, tomorrow, Wednesday, November 6, 2024. This temporary interruption is necessary to complete a tie-in for the Campo Rico Waterline Rehabilitation Project.  

Water service will be temporarily unavailable starting at 9:00 a.m. and is expected to last approximately two hours. During this time, all customers located adjacent to the red line on the outage map will be affected.  

As a reminder, after an extended water outage, please flush your water lines by running your tap for several minutes. To extend the life of your filter, remove it before flushing and reinstall afterward. This process helps to clear sediment that may have accumulated in the lines and ensures the continued quality of your water. 

Thank you for your patience and cooperation as we work on essential upgrades to support a more resilient water system for our community.
