ST. THOMAS — The Virgin Islands Public Finance Authority has approved\u00a0the allocation of $954,365.48 to finance the emergency infrastructure repairs and replacements required at the Schneider Regional Medical Center (S.R.M.C.)<\/p>\n

The approval came on May 31, according to a release issued by the P.F.A. — mere hours before the Virgin Islands Legislature approved $545,634.48 to fund repairs at the facility in the wee hours of Thursday morning, during a Senate session that began on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

The combined funding brings the total dollars available to S.R.M.C. to $1.5 million, about half of the $3 million the Senate approved for sewage and drainage repairs at the Juan F. Luis Hospital (J.F.L.).<\/p>\n

\u201cI commend the Senators in the 32nd\u00a0<\/span>Legislature for joining us in providing much needed funding for repairs at the Roy Lester Schneider Regional Medical Center,” Governor Kenneth Mapp said in the P.F.A. release.<\/p>\n

The funds, according to hospital officials, are needed to conduct repairs on the facility’s water heaters and piping, among other emergency work.<\/p>\n

Funding from both the P.F.A. and Senate came from bond monies, with senators re-appropriating unused bond dollars from a variety of projects — similar to what it did to secure the $3 million for J.F.L.<\/a><\/span> — to provide\u00a0the\u00a0$545,634.48.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
