OUDTSHOORN NEWS - With the latest load-shedding, it is impossible to get the reservoirs at Dysselsdorp to such a level that there is sufficient water for Dysselsdorp.
This means that higher-lying parts of Dysselsdorp are already without water and the lower parts will probably be without water soon.
As an emergency measure, the municipality hired a tanker from Mossel Bay that can transport 28 000 liters of water. Residents will be notified as soon as the tanker is at the municipal offices in Dysselsdorp.
Residents are requested to use the water that is available sparingly and to make sure that taps at homes are not left open unnecessarily.
Reservoirs in Dysselsdorp sonder water
Met die jongste beurtkrag is dit onmoontlik om die reservoirs by Dysselsdorp op so ‘n vlak te kry dat daar voldoende water vir Dysselsdorp is.
Dit beteken dat hoërliggende dele reeds sonder water is en die laer gedeeltes sal waarskynlik binnekort sonder water wees.
Die munisipaliteit het as ‘n noodmaatreël ‘n tenkwa vanaf Mosselbaai gehuur wat 28 000 liter water kan vervoer. Inwoners sal in kennis gestel word sodra die tenkwa by die munisipale kantore in Dysselsdorp is. Inwoners word ook dringend versoek om die water wat beskikbaar is uiters spaarsamig te gebruik en seker te maak dat krane by huise nie onnodig oop gelaat word nie.
