HESSEQUA NUUS - Inwoners word versoek om water uiters spaarsamig te gebruik aangesien Overberg Water probleme met reservoirvlakke ondervind as gevolg van beurtkrag.
Hessequa-munisipaliteit sê in ‘n verklaring reservoirvlakke het aansienlik gedaal, wat veroorsaak dat opbouende slyk in die reservoirs deur die netwerk versprei.
Overberg Water het die watertoevoer na Heidelberg en Slangrivier toegedraai om hul reservoirvlakke te lig.
Die netwerk word tans gespoel om van die slyk in die water ontslae te raak. Watertenke is by die munisipale kantoor in Heidelberg asook by die Duivenhoks-gemeenskapsaal geplaas om inwoners van skoon water te voorsien. Water word vanaf Riversdal vervoer om die reservoirs in Heidelberg en Slangrivier aan te vul.

Heidelberg and Slangrivier reservoir levels critical
Residents are urged to use water sparingly as Overberg Water is experiencing problems with reservoir levels due to load shedding. Hessequa Municipality has issued a statement saying reservoir levels dropped significantly, causing build-up of sludge in the reservoirs that spread throughout the network. Overberg Water has turned off the water supply to Heidelberg and Slangrivier to raise the reservoir levels.
The network is currently being flushed to get rid of the sludge in the water. Water tanks have been placed at the municipal office in Heidelberg and at the Duivenhoks Community Hall to provide residents with clean water. Water is transported from Riversdale to replenish the reservoirs in Heidelberg and Slangrivier.
