WATER CRISIS: HUMANSDORP
All reservoirs supplying water to residents in Humansdorp will be closed from 19:00 tonight until 05:00 tomorrow morning due to rapidly declining reservoir water levels.
This is to allow for the reservoirs to fill up sufficiently. If reservoirs are not closed, it will run dry – leaving residents without water for a minimum of four days.
If residents continue consuming while the reservoirs are closed, pipes will run dry and may burst.
Humansdorp residents are urged to use water only when absolutely necessary.
We apologise for the inconvenience caused.
This water crisis is as a consequence of the Government not having done anything for the past 25 years to increase water reserve capacity. The population has grown over the past 25 years, but the ability to deliver water to this population has not. It is not good enough to simply apologies for the inconvenience. This is no different to the power problems we have faced over the past 15 years.
This is a very sad situation.
Unfortunately residents have brought this on themselves by wasting water.
For nearly 3 years now I have offered a no-obligation demonstration of a German patented water saving system which can reduce water consumption by up to 65%.
A typical bathroom can be completely converted for not more than R350
Reduced electricity and water costs should recover any investment within 3 months.
