UPDATE ON LOW PRESSURE & WATER OUTAGE – BLANCO


 25 November 2023 @ 16:44

The Eskom Potable Water Storage Reservoir is experiencing low water supply levels due to load shedding.

Pumps were fixed on 24 November however loadshedding has not allowed levels to build up and support the area. This results in low pressure with higher areas having no water.

Residents of Blanco and surrounding areas are urged to continue using water sparingly to allow the reservoir to build up reserves.

For today, the reservoir will be recharged using a large tanker. The municipality will install a generator to assist during loadshedding in the next two days.

For those without water, tankers are en route. The farms on the upper section of Maitland Street will receive water into holding tanks on site and the tanker will then be stationed at Mont Fleur Estate entrance.

George Municipality thanks the residents for their patience and understanding.
