The National Water Commission (NWC) says a loss in power supply forced the shutdown of the Dinthill facility today, leaving some northern St Catherine communities without water.
The affected communities are: Linstead, Dinthill, Deeside, Mickleton, Jew Pen, Grove Road, Rosemount, Mickleton Meadows, Commodore and Buena Vista.
The state-run water company says it is working to have service restored in the shortest possible time.
Meanwhile, NWC says it is investigating the cause of a disruption to customers in the Constant Spring area of St Andrew; while councillor for the Denham Town division in West Kingston, Jermaine Hyatt, says the NWC has said that it will investigate a lack of service to the community, which has been without water for four days. Residents today received trucked service arranged by the councillor.
