Water and Sanitation Minister Senzo Mchunu says water supply will be restricted at Nelson Mandela Bay Metro as of Monday. Mchunu visited Impofu and Kouga dams to assess the situation.

Meanwhile day one of water shedding at the Kouga Local Municipality has commenced. This is due to the low levels at the Impofu dam and with the Churchill dam reaching below the 10% mark. Affected areas will include Jeffery’s Bay, Humansdorp and the greater St Francis area.

“The water crisis here is affecting us very bad. Yes we do understand that the dams are dry and we praying for rain soon in our catchment areas. We just hope the municipality will keep its word and make sure they stick to the times they tell us.” The local businesses are also feeling the pinch. Business owner Denise Barnard says that her laundromat is already suffering.
