Corporate Governance at DOWASCO seeks to provide an environment that promotes decision-making in the interests of all stakeholders. DOWASCO is committed to governance policies and practices that assure our shareholders and customers that it conducts business in accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations of the Commonwealth of Dominica.
The Water and Sewerage Act which came into effect in 1989 makes provision for a national policy for water and the granting of an exclusive license to DOWASCO for the development and control of water supply and sewerage facilities in Dominica.
Water Regulations 1997 and Sewerage Regulations 1997 made by the Minister after consultation with DOWASCO under Section 68 of the Water and Sewerage Act (Chap 43:40) govern the water and sewerage services that DOWASCO provides to its customers.
