Greater Hermanus and Kleinmond water reservoirs are currently critically low to empty following the long-weekend’s heavy rains and damage to the water networks at De Bos dam and Palmiet Pump Station.

It seems that after the request to use water sparingly, the opposite was done in many cases to store water for today which has depleted the stored amount.

All hands-on deck and teams are on site to resolve the water supply as soon as possible. Apologies for the inconvenience.

The Municipality is providing water tankers in the various suburbs and locations will be given through once received.

Please stock up on bottled water and assist us in ensuring that the little water we have can last as long as possible until the bulk water supplies have been restored.
