By GITONGA MARETEMore by this AuthorThe Water Resources Authority (WRA) has said it is reviewing rates for bulk water users in a move expected to increase charges for the basic commodity for end users. WRA Chairman Joe Mutambu said the firms pay so little money which is not enough for the authority to carry out its activities. AdvertisementSome water firms have, however, denied owing the authority any money, with an official at the Meru Water and Sewerage Services (Mewass) saying they have paid all their dues. However, it is the move to increase the rates that is likely to face opposition from the water firms. It is expected to see a hike in the charges of the essential commodity across the country, with water service providers saying they will also increase retail charges once WRA reviews the rates upwards.
