“This funding will also help mitigate against the real risk of spillage of raw sewage into watercourses and interruptions of potable water supply, both of which have potential adverse health implications for citizens. We face an emergency that requires an urgent response and emergency funding to protect our residents,” said Wenger in a joint statement with Winde and local government, environmental affairs and development planning MEC Anton Bredell on Monday.
Electricity is used for pumping, treatment of raw water, distribution of potable water, collection and treatment of wastewater and water discharge. The funding will enable 24 local municipalities and five district municipalities to keep providing basic services during load-shedding.“I do recognise that local governments in the province have been doing their utmost to deal with load-shedding, which is reflected in the R203.
