Sewer System

A brief background of the sewerage system in the Georgetown area

There are two sewerage systems in Georgetown:
1. Central Georgetown and the Tucville Sewerage System.
In the Central Georgetown Sewerage System there are no treatment processes. This system was designed by Howard Humphrey and Sons and was first commissioned in 1929. The system essentially comprises 24 interlinked sewerage basins each having a network of gravity sewers draining into a single pumping station. The 24 pumping stations deliver the “untreated” flows into a common ring force main then they are discharged to the mouth of the Demerara River via short outfall at Fort Groyen, Kingston.

 

At least a mile and a half upstream where the fellow swam the Demerara.

In addition the pumps are turned on only when the tide is low, meaning that the river is flowing to the ocean, not the reverse where water is backing up inland. 

What a jackass you turned out to be.
