Contractor using old ‘sewerage pipes’ for new Goed Fortuin well -residents claimBy Stabroek staff   |  7 Comments   |  Local | Wednesday, February 29, 2012 Residents of Goed Fortuin, on the West Bank of Demerara, are alleging that old ‘old sewerage pipes’ are being used by a contractor to construct a well in the community.
The well is being constructed under a Basic Needs Trust Fund (BNTF) programme and was given the green light by the organisation’s parent body Caribbean Development Bank (CDB) during 2010.
A section of the well under constructionThis newspaper visited the area last week and residents of the community said that works at the site at Fred Street (also known as the Red Road), Goed Fortuin started last month when they observed pipes and machinery being mobilized in the area. They said that persons at the site indicated that the works were put on hold during the earlier part of last week, since residents complained to the regional authorities about the use of ‘sub-standard materials.’
This newspaper made several attempts to obtain a comment from the regional administration of Region Three last week but the relevant persons were not available.
A resident of the community, who asked not to be named, told this newspaper on Thursday that pipes were placed beside the work site and the workmen indicated that it was intended to place them within the depths of the well as well as within the water network. She said persons immediately raised objections for health and environmental reasons.
Richard Alleyne, an APNU MP who is following the issue, told this newspaper recently that the use of the material could pose health issues for those who are expected to benefit from the project. He said that the contractor should have received the relevant funds to purchase new pipes for the project and he questioned whether in fact the monies had indeed been used for this purpose.
According to the CDB website, the Meer Zorgen/Malgre Tout Neighbourhood Development Council (NDC) project was approved on August 18, 2010, under the BNTF 6th Programme. A sum of US$495,000 was allocated for the project.
The project involves the laying of a water distribution network to Guyana Water Inc (GWI) standards, consisting of 1.6 kilometers (km) of 200 mm diameter PVC pipelines, inclusive of all valves, bends and couplings; 40 metres of 200 mm diameter and Ductile Iron (DI) pipe for trench crossings and road crossings.
The water well is being constructed to a minimum of 1,315 cubic metres/day capacity and is expected to be sunk to a depth of approximately 200 metres based on current borehole analysis.  More than 10,000 persons from the villages of Goed Fortuin and La Grange are expected to benefit from the project.

Perhaps the most perplexing aspect of AT&T Stadium, otherwise known as “Jerry World,” is the glare from the sun that bursts through the windows and shines directly onto the field. Time and time again the glare has impacted players’ visibility during games, yet Jerry Jones refuses to make any changes to account for the sun.

Rather than install curtains, Jones has previously said he feels it’s a home-field advantage to have that type of stadium factor impacting games. Well, the glare ended up benefitting the Chiefs early into Thursday’s Thanksgiving game, as a pass from Dak Prescott to George Pickens fell incomplete, at least in part due to the impact of the sun’s glare.

SerenaThis batting performance by the West Indies in the second innings blew me away. I kept closing my eyes and then rubbing and opening them again and sat transfixed as I watch that unbelievable partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope. What a magnificent performance by these two! It just goes to show that patience, determination and effort can go a long way to improve the performances of the West Indies team. Let us hope that this effort by West Indies batsmen would not be a one-off performance, but will be the beginning of a renewed effort to improve the performances of the team, going forward.(13.10.2025, 09:28)(09:28)0

WarrenJameis Winston is asked about being named QB3 on the Giants' roster behind Russell Wilson and Jaxson Dart:

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.

I focus on what I would love. And what I would love is for this team to have success."
