Residents decry deterioration of sewers
HOLGUIN, Cuba - January 26 (Liannis Meriño Aguilera, Jóvenes sin
Censura) - Backed-up and overflowing sewage systems are driving the
residents of Banes to distraction.
Residents say the more-than-50-year-old sewage pipes have received
little if any maintenance in all those years and they routinely leak,
spilling their contents on the streets.
There is only one truck destined to clean septic tanks, and to boot it
is often out of commission due to breakdowns. The employees of the
community service agency that would service the sewage system have
little motivation to work due to low salaries, residents complain.
Banes is in Holguín municipality, in eastern Cuba.
