That began more than 20 years ago, and just last year, the International Refugee Assistance Project found conditions at the facility to be inhumane, citing undrinkable water, open sewage and poor medical care.

Had DWP held water in the reservoir with a ripped cover, the water would have been legally undrinkable except in emergencies.

"The water from the river is undrinkable now, it's so contaminated, and the sea, that is usually clear blue, turns red when it rains," Nur Hayati, a teacher who lives in Kawasi village, says.

If water does trickle from the tap, residents have said it’s so contaminated with sewage and seawater that it’s undrinkable.

That water, he said, was "polluted and undrinkable, but we drink it because we are thirsty."
