#WAFUPDATE | 𝗪𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝘄𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗢𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗹𝗼𝘄 – 𝗖𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗲𝘁, 𝗦𝘂𝘃𝗮
The Water Authority of Fiji (WAF) wishes to advise the public that a wastewater overflow occurred along Cummings Street, Suva, this morning (03 August 2026).
WAF response teams attended the site immediately, rectified the issue, and have since completed the disinfection and cleaning of the affected footpath and surrounding area. The wastewater system has now been restored to normal operation.
The overflow was caused by a pump failure at the Robertson Pump Station, which receives and transfers wastewater from the surrounding catchment. The failure occurred after the pump control float switches became entangled with large quantities of foreign materials that had been improperly disposed of into the wastewater network, including plastic bags, rags, wet wipes, clothing and similar non-flushable items.
While the pump station is equipped with screening systems to capture such materials before they reach the pumps, the volume of foreign materials entering the system on this occasion exceeded the screening capacity, resulting in interference with the pump control mechanisms and the temporary failure of the pumping system.
WAF once again reminds its customers and members of the public that the wastewater network is designed to transport only wastewater and human waste. Items such as wet wipes, diapers, sanitary products, rags, clothing, plastics, paper towels, cooking oils and other solid waste should never be flushed down toilets or disposed of into the sewer system.
The improper disposal of these materials is one of the leading causes of wastewater blockages, pump failures, manhole overflows and damage to critical infrastructure. These incidents not only create public health and environmental risks but also divert valuable operational resources from essential maintenance, service improvements and infrastructure development across the country.
WAF sincerely appreciates the patience, understanding and continued cooperation of the public as we work to maintain reliable wastewater services and protect our shared environment.
Vinaka Vakalevu for your understanding and support.

Vinaka WAF. its all because citizens dispose and flush wastes not meant for sewer line, just have a look at the wastes items WAF removed. We all need to play our part and have civic pride
Can WAF look into Nabawan Toilet Paper & see if it could also be a contributing factor to these blockages?
Vinaka WAF Why stormwater line is connected to sewer line...
A heartfelt thank you to the WAF Wastewater team for your dedication and hard work, much of which goes unnoticed. While many of us go about our daily lives without a second thought, you work behind the scenes to keep our communities clean, safe, and healthy. Your efforts may not always be seen, but they are deeply appreciated. Thank you for all that you guys do. 👏💙
Vinaka team WAF 🪣🚿🫧 Just a suggestion, for workers to have proper attire like Hazmat suits, workers safety and welfare should also be considered.
Vinaka WAF. My heart aches as I watch the photos. While people give out negative comments, WAF quietly serves the people. Thankyou so much WAF team for always taking the challenges that come your way with a good and humble heart. It is my prayer that God will richly bless you all team WAF. Vinaka vakalevu
It was overflowing from 2nd Oct ... and was flowing into Nabukalou Creek
Just these WAF workers have their annual HEPATITIS shots? 🤔
Need a big bonus to clean that up🤑🤑🤮🤮
Stop using the KITCHEN SINK & TOILET BOWL as a mini rubbish bin. Scrape off leftover foods and greasy thing off from your plates and eating utensils, toast it in a basin of warm water then do your washing...these little steps will become a habit...and that habit will help in many ways to minimize clogging of our main pipes...stop blaming WAF when we, as an individual, plays a critical role ...our habits resulted in infrastructure failure, Infrastructure collapse...I've attended the training conducted by WAF and have applied it at home since then...so, it's out responsibility to contain our wastes first at home!!!...
