– Dr. Luncheon Comments abound in the wake of the recent fires and these comments are about who is ultimately responsible for fire hydrants in Guyana.Yesterday Cabinet Secretary Dr. Roger Luncheon said,Wholesale Jerseys China, “This is a government responsibility.”One day prior,Wholesale China Jerseys, Minister Clement Rohee had said that his Ministry was not responsible for hydrants neither were the Fire Service or the Works Ministry. All fingers were pointing at the Guyana Water Inc but Dr. Luncheon in clearing the air said the division between the Guyana Water Inc and the Home Affairs Minister may best be described as artificial.A comprehensive response by the administration would address the problem, he said.“This is one time that the sum of the parts is not equal to the whole.”Questioning the logic of having a good hydrant if there is no working water main and vice versa,Wholesale Jerseys, Dr. Luncheon said it’s a problem that has to be comprehensively addressed as a government undertaking as opposed to casting blame of obligations.“The work in providing and maintaining the mains as well as doing the rehabilitation will be part of the programme as is being done to repair the sewage system. Housing and Water Minister Irfaan Ali has said that the sewage system projects will wrap up by March of 2010.Fire hydrants were set out in Georgetown in the 1920’s as a major means to help the fire service extinguish fires but even as Georgetown has expanded most of the fire hydrants are now inoperable.Minister Clement Rohee said that there is a plan to eventually address the issue of non-functioning hydrants as a government undertaking to deal with the provision of waters in instances of fires not only in the capital city.However,Wholesale NFL Jerseys, in the absence of functioning hydrants Guyana Water Incorporated Chief Executive Officer,Wholesale Jerseys Free Shipping, Yuri Chandisingh,Wholesale Stitched Jerseys, and Minister Rohee are now at odds on water supply issues following the recent fires on Regent Street.The Home Affairs Minister two days ago chided the water company for not providing the resource to hydrants to extinguish fires but the GWI CEO has slapped back saying his company always offers assistance to the fire service as is necessary and when called upon.With specific reference to Sunday’s fire on Regent Street that razed five businesses Chandisingh said his company is governed by the Water and Sewerage Act of 2002 which outlines GWI’s responsibilities with regard to water supply and the sanitation system in Georgetown.He categorically stated that the Sewage Act of 2002 makes no mention of the issue of fire hydrants but noted that GWI regularly cooperates and provides full support to the Guyana Fire Service in the event of a fire.Minister Rohee said based on information from his advisors the Guyana Fire Service depends on the GWI for water supply to fight fires. He added that the Guyana Fire Service with the fire advisory board is in the business of fighting and preventing fires as well as offering humanitarian services but it depends on the service provided by the GWI as the agency that is responsible for water in Guyana.Rebuffing the utilities claims Minister Rohee said “I don’t care what the GWI says…(it) is responsible for the provision of water. There is no other agency in this country tasked with providing water”.The minister said hydrants are just the instruments but it is the duty of the GWI to ensure that water is available as the service provider.He said,Cheap NFL Jerseys, too, that there is no way that his Ministry or the Fire Service could be responsible for hydrants and while the Ministry of Public Works may assist at times from the engineering perspective, they are not responsible for water.
