For more than thirty years we have looked after the water of Grenada,
Carriacou and Petite Martinique, from the catchments where it starts to
the wastewater we return safely to the ground.
We manage the supply from source to tap, and treat what flows back, for homes, businesses and communities on all three islands. Today we operate 30 water supply facilities serving roughly 43,000 customers, with about 90% service coverage and two sewerage collection and disposal systems.

For most of the last century water sat inside government, run as a department of Public Works out of Tanteen. The infrastructure came first, and it was usually built in response to something: the Observatory reservoir after a typhoid outbreak, the first boreholes when tourism outgrew what the reservoirs could carry.
Carriacou’s water history starts with wind, when two windmills at Hillsborough pumped water to catchment cisterns across the island. Sewerage came later, and NAWASA now builds and maintains the public sewer system across the south of Grenada.
After a typhoid outbreak, the Observatory reservoir is built, the start of a protected public water supply.
