Item 5.02.  Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers.

     On December 17, 2004, the board of directors of Consolidated Water Co. Ltd. (the “Company”) elected David W. Sasnett, C.P.A. as a director and as a member of its audit committee. In addition, Mr. Sasnett was appointed as the new chairman of the audit committee, replacing Steve Carr, who will remain a member of the board of directors and of the audit committee. The board of directors has determined that Mr. Sasnett qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

     There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Sasnett and any other person pursuant to which Mr. Sasnett was elected as a director and as a member of the Company’s audit committee, other than the Company’s compensation arrangements and plans for non-employee directors and the Company’s other policies and procedures which are generally applicable to directors.

     Since the beginning of the Company’s last fiscal year, the Company and its subsidiaries have not engaged in any transactions, and there are no proposed transactions, or series of similar transactions, in which Mr. Sasnett had a direct or indirect material interest.
