Diam will take precautionary measures to reduce the impact of the water supply during the maintenance period, which will continue for 48 hours as the station feeds.
Those wilayats where these supply will be affected have been ensured for alternative arrangements.
“Pumping between Quriyyat, Al Ghubrah and Barka desalination plants have been arranged, in addition to using wells in the wilayats. The authority urges all subscribers to take the necessary measures and continue to rationalise water consumption,” ONA added.
