Urgent Public Notice: Breakdown at Kraaibosch Sewer pump station

George Municipality wishes to inform residents in the Kraaibosch Area of a breakdown of the Sewer pump station servicing this area. Currently, a contractor is on-site conducting repairs and suction trucks are managing to carry the inflow, but we request the cooperation of these residents to minimize flow into the sewer network.

New pump sets to replace the existing pump sets at the sewer pump station have been ordered. Most of the components are in storage, whilst we await other critical components which need to be imported, with an expected delivery date of September/October 2023.

We thank the public for their cooperation and patience in this regard, whilst we are trying to resolve this situation.
