WATER- en elektrisiteitsprobleme in Graaff-Reinet het mekaar die afgelope week steeds afgewissel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Groot dele van die dorp was teen verlede Donderdag steeds sonder water omdat kragonderbrekings verhoed het dat reservoirs gevul kon word. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Selfs nadat kragtoevoer herstel is, het water vele huishoudings steeds nie bereik nie, en Vrydagmiddag laat het Beyers Naud\u00e9 Plaaslike Munisipaliteit (BNLM) op hul Facebookblad te kenne gegee dat \u2019n groot hoeveelheid klippe deur vandale in een van die reservoirs gegooi is. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Di\u00e9 reservoir voorsien water aan Kroonvale, Santaville, Selfbou, Umasizakhe en Bergendal. Munisipale werkers het vroeg Saterdag die laaste klippe verwyder, waarna gehoop is dat die reservoir weer spoedig sou opvul en funksioneer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kommer heers oor sekuriteit en toegangbeheer na die reservoir. Volgens Wilca Smith, woordvoerder van BNLM, is die palissadeheining om die reservoir \u2019n geruimte tyd gelede afgesteel, maar die naweek het die munisipaliteit wel die deksels ter sprake toegesweis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Maandag het blou begin vir vele huishoudings wat steeds dae lank met dro\u00eb krane gesit het, di\u00e9 keer vanwe\u00eb \u2019n kragonderbreking na die Damkamp boorgate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Di\u00e9 probleem het watertoevoer na die dorp, Umasizakhe, Mandela Park, die industri\u00eble gebied, Kollegeweg, Donkerhoek, Sunnyside, Reinet Park en Cypress Grove ingekort. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2019n Gebreekte kabel agter Lokasiekop is eindelik herstel nadat munisipale werkers met moeite toerusting te voet na die herstelplek moes dra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dinsdag was verskeie inwoners rooi onder die kraag toe bloedwurms uit kouewaterkrane verskyn het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hoewel die bloedwurm, \u2019n larwe van die muggie Chironomidae, skadeloos is, kan groot infestasies daarvan \u2019n aanduiding wees van swak waterkwaliteit. Bloedwurms het \u2019n ho\u00eb hemoglobieninhoud, wat hulle in staat stel om te oorleef in suurstofarm vlakke, soos aangetref in besoedelde waterbronne. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEk is in kennis gestel dat, omdat die reservoir heeltemaal leeg was, van die slyk ensovoorts geroer sou word toe dit weer volgemaak is. Dit is die rede vir die sand en ander onsuiwerhede. Die water is ontsmet, maar nie noodwendig filtreer nie. Dit behoort deur te was met gebruik,\u201d het raadslid Samantha Graham ges\u00ea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volgens woordvoerder Wilca Smith het die munisipaliteit wel ondersoek ingestel na die wurmprobleem by van die adresse waar dit aangemeld is, maar hulle het nie nog wurms aangetref nie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDaar is wel besluit om die sisteem te spoel, en ons versoek inwoners om verdere probleme steeds onder die munisipaliteit se aandag te bring,\u201d het Smith ges\u00ea.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
