The Water Authority of Fiji says they now have generators on standby at all their major water treatment plants around the country to provide electricity to their systems.
Some areas were affected by water cuts after the power cuts during Tropical Cyclone Sarai.
Although they have stand by generators, the Water Authority is still urging all Fijians to boil and store water for consumption in sufficient amounts as supply may still be disrupted during adverse weather.
The Authority says failing of water pumps due to clogging, burst mains, water treatment problems due to high turbidity levels and electricity supply issues are some of the reasons water supply may be disrupted.
They add that water carting trucks are on standby and will be deployed as needed to impacted areas. High priority will be given to hospitals.
Major water treatment plants are in Waila, Tamavua, Nagado, Saru, Buabua, Waiwai, Vatukoula, Korovou, Navua and Deuba.
