Municipal sewage system backed up for 7
months
HAVANA, Cuba, October 8 (Reinaldo Cosano
Alén / www.cubanet.org) - Residents
of
Banes, Holguin province, say the municipal
sewage system has been backed up for the
last seven months, especially around the
Miguel Salcedo neighborhood, causing in
many cases black water intrusion in homes.
Sometimes sewage backs up onto city streets,
as it does frequently on Cuatro Street,
where a medical dispensary, an elementary
school and a grocery store are sited.
One resident said that after repeatedly
complaining to municipal authorities, they
were told the only truck that could possibly
clean up the pipes cannot be used because
there are not tires for it.
