Rand Water lifts water restrictions

“Following the high water consumption brought about by the high temperatures and subsequent restrictions, reservoir levels in Rand Water systems have stabilised and increased from 30% to above 60% currently. Stabilisation of the systems, assisted by good rains, has been a joint and collaborative effort by Rand Water and the three Metros,” says Rand Water’s Ms Makenosi Maroo.

Because of this Rand Water will lift the water restrictions immediately.

Maroos says that in consultation with the Metros, a philosophy has been agreed to which will ensure that best water management practices are left in place to ensure that systems are kept stable throughout the coming hot months. Through these collaborative efforts, the Metros have managed to reduce consumption and manage own systems effectively and efficiently.

Because of this  reduced consumption and leak repairs must be the new order.
