Update
GEORGE NEWS - Strategic repairs to one of the main valves at the Water Treatment Works was successfully completed last night, following damage caused by loadshedding.
The raw water supply to the balancing dams has been restored.
However, during the process, the old Water Treatment Works had to be shut down. This has impacted on the purification of water and storage to our main drinking water reservoirs.
We request the public to please use water sparingly in order to restore capacity in our reservoirs.
All drinking water reservoirs remain vulnerable.
