ST. CROIX, USVI — The Virgin Islands Water and Power Authority announced that approximately 400 customers in Estate Mon Bijou on St. Croix will lose potable water service until repairs are completed to a mainline leak on Monday.

WAPA says that a four-inch water service line was depressurized on Sunday to minimize water loss. Due to inclement weather conditions, however, repair work is delayed until early Monday morning.
