Commissioning the project on Wednesday, January 31, Madam Freda Prempeh explained that the Mim water supply system was constructed in 2003 under the IDA-SRWSP project and handed over to Mim Community Water System Management, but broke down in 2009.
The Minister highlighted that since assuming control of the system in 2018, the CWSA has undertaken rehabilitation efforts for the existing boreholes, including their pump houses, and has replaced all the pumps, with one utilising photovoltaic technology.
