Monrovia – The Water Treatment Plant in White Plains operated by the Liberia Water and Sewer Corporation (LWSC) has been rehabilitated to its pre-war status of producing 16,000,000 gallons of water per day. According to Liberia Water & Sewer Corporation (LWSC) Managing Director, Mr. Hun-Bu Tulay, if nothing is done now, LWSC could end up spending several times more than the amounts already invested. At 16 million gallons per day to supply less 500,000 population the facility could serve the population then. LWSC BackgroundWater treatment in White Plains started in the early 1960s with the construction of 2 million gallons per day capacity slow sand filtration plant. The study resulted in the construction of the first half of the current plant in 1968-a rapid sand filtration plant of 8 million gallons per day capacity.
