Residents complain water is contaminated
SANTA CLARA, Cuba - May 31 (Karel Castillo,
Cubanacán Press / www.cubanet.org)
- Residents of the José Martí
district in Santa Clara complain that the
water coming through the municipal water
system pipes lately has been contaminated.
"The water is no good even for cooking,"
said Lester Leiva, a local resident. "It
smells like swamp water; it's totally repugnant."
Residents get water service every three
of four days, on average, like every other
district in the city system.
"When we get water, we have to store
it in any available tank, but this stuff
cannot even be used for cleaning,"
said Diana Moré, another concerned
resident.
