Aanhoudende klagtes oor die vuil water in Grabouw loop soos water van \u2019n eend se rug af by die TWK-munisipaliteit. S\u00f3 s\u00ea onthutste inwoners van die dorpie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cVan die begin van die jaar af gaan ons hier in Grabouw nie net gebuk onder vuil water nie, maar party gedeeltes in die dorp sit weke sonder enige water,\u201d kla \u2019n inwoner van Pineview. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens haar word watertenks wel by sommige plekke aangebring vir die inwoners wat sonder water gebuk moet gaan, maar soms is watertenks glad nie beskikbaar nie. \u201cOns het al gesien hoe kry kinders swaar omdat hulle geen water in hul buurte het nie. Dit is warm en die mense moet vloeistowwe inneem.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Van die ander inwoners mor ook oor die probleem en s\u00ea dit is een van die redes waarom mense in die omgewing so baie maagvirusse kry. \u201cOns moet dan nie net eers die water kook voordat ons dit kan gebruik nie, maar ons kan nie eens ons wasgoed was nie aangesien ons wasgoed vuiler is nadat ons dit in di\u00e9 water gewas het,\u201d vertel \u2019n inwoner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
John Michels, die onderburgemeester van die TWK-munisipaliteit en self \u2019n inwoner van Grabouw, s\u00ea hy stel ondersoek oor die waterprobleem in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDie amptenare werk saam met my om \u2019n oplossing vir die probleem te kry en ondersoek verskeie moontlike oorsake daarvoor,\u201d s\u00ea hy op Facebook. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens hom speel beurtkrag \u2019n rol in die watersuiweringswerke en het dit glo veroorsaak dat die ystervlakke in die water dalk die effense bruin kleur afgee. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDie voortdurende verhoging en verlaging van die waterdruk in die waternetwerke \u2013 weens die voortdurende wisseling van watervlakke in reservoirs \u2013 kon veroorsaak dat sediment wat binne waterpype opbou, loskom en die water moontlik effens bruin kan verkleur. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWanneer die watervlakke van die reservoirs n\u00e1 die vorige week se beurtkrag genoegsaam herstel het, kan die reservoirs skoongemaak word en die waternetwerke gespoel word om alle moontlike sedimente uit die waternetwerke te spoel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cMet beurtkrag wat vir eers verby is, is die ystervlakke weer onder beheer,\u201d het hy ges\u00ea. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Michels het ook die inwoners belowe as die probleem voortduur, sal hy verdere ondersoeke van stapel stuur. Wat s\u00ea Grabouw se inwoners op Facebook:<\/b>. <\/span>Ja-nee, so moet \u2019n mens sit met gemors; ek sukkel nou nog om my toploader <\/i>skoon te kry en klere is bruin gevlek..<\/span> Ek stel voor elke belastingbetaler trek elke maand die bedrag wat TWK vir water vra, doodeenvoudig van hul rekening af en betaal net die balans, maar nou wil ek ook s\u00ea weens die toename van al die blinkplaathuisies het ek \u2019n groot probleem met die rates en taxes<\/i> wat die TWK van mense wat wel betaal, verwag..<\/span> Ek is al skoon moedeloos met die water wat nou al so lank s\u00f3 lyk. Maar ons moet ten duurste betaal, en dit is net nie reg nie.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Aanhoudende klagtes oor die vuil water in Grabouw loop soos water van \u2019n eend se rug af by die TWK-munisipaliteit.
