WATER OUTAGE – Update on Skuinsbank Street Water Challenge, Herold’s Bay

Issued George Municipality, 26 September @ 16h45

George Municipal teams have exhausted all possible options in providing sufficient pressure to Skuinsbank Street. The cause appears to be a pipe that has collapsed or an undetected valve collapse.

Upgrade 1: The George Municipal team is in the process of connecting high pressure lines from Vaalkom to Skuinsbank Street.

Upgrade 2: The contractor is installing a new water supply line from the upper area of Rooidraai to Skuinsbank Street.

Both the George Municipal and Contracting teams will work through the night to provide Skuinsbank Street with sufficient pressure. Please note the water may be shut off intermittently during the repairs.

Herold’s Bay residents outside of Skuinsbank Street who may experience no water or low pressure are urged to contact the following numbers 044 801 9260/ 62/ 66 during work hours and 044 8016300 After hours to report.

George Municipality apologizes for the inconvenience caused to residents.

ROTATIONAL SWITCH ON AFTER LOADSHEDDING – reduce power to avoid network tripping
Consumers are reminded to PLEASE use electricity sparingly after power returns. Please do not switch high-usage equipment on immediately after Load shedding.

Consumers are urged to turn off high-usage equipment and where possible to not switch on appliances such as stoves and kettles for at least 30 minutes after load shedding is scheduled to return. This will reduce the risk of overload tripping on the network.

Reporting power outages
Please do not phone the after-hours number or the Electrotechnical Department to report that you have no power immediately after load shedding is scheduled to be lifted. Please be aware of the rotational switching on i.e. areas are switched on one by one and not all at the same time to avoid overloading the system. Please wait at least 30 minutes before reporting no power. The Electrotechnical Directorate will be aware of a possible substation trip that needs to be sorted out.
