Grenada’s Rural Development Unit is seeking consulting firms to design and supervise three water-storage projects in Carriacou and Petite Martinique. The government procurement notices outline two new rainwater cisterns and the rehabilitation of an existing one.
What each community would get
Belair, Carriacou. A proposed 75,000-gallon reinforced-concrete cistern would collect rainwater from the roof of the National Disaster Management Agency’s Emergency Operations Centre. The plans include disinfection, water-level monitoring and a distribution system.
Top Hill, Carriacou. The proposal calls for cleaning and repairing the existing cistern and upgrading its catchment, plumbing and disinfection. One aim is to improve the reliability of the water supply to the Top Hill Senior Citizen’s Home.
Petite Martinique. The proposed 50,000-gallon cistern would collect rainwater and use a solar-powered purification system. The design would also allow for a cold-storage unit to be added above the cistern in the future.
What happens next
The Caribbean Development Bank lists both expressions of interest as due Friday, November 27, 2026, at 4 p.m. Grenada time. This is the deadline for consulting firms. The notices give no construction start date. The work is part of the bank-financed Basic Needs Trust Fund’s eleventh programme.
