Question

What is the Relation between availability of water and load-shedding

Answer 1

Load shedding carries with it the risk that water pumps will not be able to provide pressure to higher-lying areas, and/or not fill reservoirs adequately, thus risking the availability of water," said Mayoral Committee Member for Utility Services, Councillor Ernest Sonnenberg.
Water quality in distribution systems is monitored weekly to ensure compliance with National Drinking Water Standards and is considered safe for human consumption."
