The Saint-Martin Community, through its Water Cycle Service, is closely monitoring the situation of water accumulation in the pond, affecting residents in the Hameau du Pont, Galisbay and Agrément sectors.

Indeed, a premature openinge could cause sea water to enter the pond, thus aggravating the inconvenience already felt.
