The Minister for Public Works, Meteorological Services and Transport, Hon. Ro Filipe Tuisawau, today convened a high-level briefing with the Fiji Meteorological Service, Water Authority of Fiji (WAF), Government Shipping Services (GSS), the Department of Energy and the National Disaster Management Office (Fiji NDMO) to receive an update on the developing El Niño conditions and to review the Government's preparedness and Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) measures.

The briefing highlighted that rainfall distribution across Fiji during June remained highly variable, with some areas experiencing below-average rainfall. Forecasts indicate that El Niño conditions are expected from July 2026 to March 2027, increasing the likelihood of reduced rainfall and prolonged dry spells across the country.

The Minister was advised that current assessments show 77% of water sources remain at normal levels, while 7% are approaching critical levels and 16% are already at critical levels. WAF is undertaking preparedness measures, including water source assessments, rehabilitation works, additional borehole development and ensuring the readiness of water carting services.

Government Shipping Services (GSS) has placed three (3) vessels on standby to support water carting operations to maritime communities if required, while water carting trucks are also being prepared to assist affected areas.

The Department of Energy also briefed the Minister on the potential impacts on electricity generation by Energy Fiji Limited (EFL) should water levels in hydroelectric dams continue to decline. Reduced hydropower generation could increase reliance on fuel-based generation, resulting in higher operational costs and possible planned power rationing if the situation worsens.

Should conditions deteriorate and reach critical thresholds, the Ministry will advise the National Disaster Management Office (Fiji NDMO), under the Ministry of Rural and Maritime Development and Disaster Management, for further assessment and coordinated action under the National Disaster Management Plan.

Hon. Tuisawau stressed the importance of early preparedness, water conservation, responsible energy use and community cooperation. He also called on the public to remain informed through official Fiji Government updates to ensure timely and accurate information.

“Preparedness is the foundation of Disaster Risk Reduction. By working together, conserving water, using energy responsibly and preparing early, we can minimise the impacts of prolonged dry conditions and strengthen our national resilience,” said Hon. Ro Filipe Tuisawau.

The Ministry, together with its Commercial Statutory Authority (CSA), will continue monitoring the El Niño situation, coordinate with relevant stakeholders and provide regular updates and assistance to communities across Fiji.

𝗪𝗔𝗙 𝗛𝗼𝗹𝗱𝘀 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 𝗔𝗻𝗻𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗖𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗿 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝘂𝗺 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗹 𝗗𝗶𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻

Monday, 06 July 2026 | The Water Authority of Fiji (WAF) this week held its 2026 Annual Customer Forum for the Central Division in Suva.

Themed “Building trust through customer engagement,” the forum brought customers and WAF’s Executive Management together for an open exchange on the services WAF provides and how they can be improved.

WAF CEO Seru Soderberg thanked those who attended and took part.

“I thank our customers for giving their time to the forum. It matters because it gives us a chance to hear directly from the people we serve, and for them to hear directly from us.”

Mr Soderberg said WAF’s purpose is straightforward — to provide water and sanitation services that support a better life: clean drinking water for public health, reliable supply for economic activity, and proper wastewater treatment to protect Fiji’s waterways and oceans.

“The forum is about an honest conversation with our customers — what we are getting right, where we need to do better, what we have delivered, and what we plan to do next,” he said.

Over the past year, WAF has worked to strengthen service delivery through infrastructure upgrades, smart metering, digital tools and improved customer service channels. WAF currently provides access to safe drinking water for 99% of Fiji’s urban population and 62% of the rural population, reaching more than 820,000 people.

Mr Soderberg said meeting Fiji’s water needs over the long term will require sustained investment and shared effort. To guide this, WAF has adopted the Water Sector Strategy 2050 (WSS2050), the country’s first long-term national roadmap for the water and wastewater sector.

“The WSS2050 gives us a clear direction for the next three decades — guiding the investment and actions needed to deliver reliable, resilient and sustainable services for future generations,” he said.

The strategy identifies more than $8 billion in investment needed to renew ageing assets, expand coverage, strengthen climate resilience, and keep pace with a growing population and economy. Mr Soderberg noted this is a national undertaking rather than one WAF can deliver on its own.

“This will take partnership — with government, communities and our customers. Your feedback and experience help us make better decisions and deliver better outcomes,” he said.

Discussion at the forum focused on longer-term water security and sanitation: the direction of the sector over the coming decades and the level of investment it will require. A Q&A session gave participants the opportunity to put questions directly to Executive Management.

Similar forums will be held in the Western and Northern Divisions in the coming months.
