Mahaicony Creek flood woes continue after heavy downpours
-residents slam NDIA, MMA-ADA for inaction during dry season
Heavy rains pounded the Mahaicony Creek area yesterday making it difficult for floodwaters to recede even as farmers slammed the agencies responsible for drainage and irrigation in the area for not taking proactive measures during the dry season to prepare for the rainy season.
“Well about an inch went down since yesterday but they still got a lot of water in places. In some yards they still got about four inches of water, and on the land, they still got about two feet of water,” Chabinauth Deolall, a farmer from Gordon Table, told Stabroek News yesterday. He said that it had been raining heavily since 10am yesterday and up to late yesterday afternoon, the rain had not eased.
