Water
Water Update The repair of the second pipeline has been successfully completed. However, upon restoring the water supply, municipal technicians identified an additional leak adjacent to the section that was repaired earlier today. To improve the situation, water will continue to be released to the Emmasdal Reservoir overnight to allow reservoir levels to recover. This will enable pumping to resume to Ext 23 and 26, as well as parts of Obed Nkosi, from tomorrow morning. Our technicians will return to site tomorrow morning to repair the newly detected leak that hinders supply to Ratanda.
