The following statement was made by the Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality via their website:
Due to a power failure in the Kouga area and the simultaneous repair work of pumps at the Elandsjagt Treatment Works due to a failure, the municipality is now unable to treat and pump water to the metropolitan area.
This means that the available water supply for Nelson Mandela Bay residents is reduced to 50% of our normal distribution capacity resulting in severe strain to our supply.
Customers are urgently requested to cut their respective water usage immediately. Further updates will follow in due course.
Ends
Issued on behalf of the Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality by Media Management Officer Kupido Baron (082 780 2726 / 041 506 1500
