Geen riool word <span>tans by die rioolwerke <\/span>opgeneem nie. Drie van die mengers by die aanleg draai, maar die terugvoerkanaal is droog. Die tenke by die aanleg is ver onder die funksioneringsvlak, wat aandui dat die aanleg vir \u2019n geruime tyd nie werk nie. Die gevolgtrekking is dus dat geen riool by die aanleg in Kroonstad verwerk word nie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Khoury s\u00ea dit is angswekkend om te dink dat onbehandelde riool vrylik in die dorp en omgewing wegvloei. Di\u00e9 probleem word reeds vir die laaste sewe jaar geopper. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cVolgens die Nasionale Waterwet is dit \u2019n kriminele oortreding. Die wet bepaal dat rioolstorting verkieslik binne 24-uur herstel moet word. Die besmette area moet ook gerehabiliteer word en geen herhaling mag voorkom nie.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Van Heerden s\u00ea die VF-Plus het \u2019n klag by die Groen Skerpioene ingedien oor die rioolaanleg. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOndanks die besteding van meer as R100 miljoen sedert 2016, blyk dit dat die aanleg meestal buite werking is. Riool word direk in die Valsrivier gestort. Dit kan bydra tot die gereelde geel of bruin drinkwater uit die krane. Dit skep groot gesondheids- en veiligheidsrisiko\u2019s vir die gemeenskap.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DA-raadslid Spaski Geldenhuis s\u00ea die party stel nou \u2019n volledige verslag <span>en in diepte verslag <\/span>saam oor die waterprobleme in Kroonstad. <span>\u201cDie rioolaanleg wat buitewerking is, is maar een van vele probleme. Dit is egter die gehalte van die water wat uit die krane vloei wat nou \u2018n kopseer is. Verskeie faktore kan tot die swak gehalte kraanwater \u2018n bydrae maak. Die DA moedig egter die inwoners aan om enige probleme rakende die watergehalte dadelik te rapporteer vir verdere ondersoek.\u201d<\/span><span>)<\/span> Die Moqhaka-munisipaliteit het in \u2019n verklaring ges\u00ea die stemboodskap, wat op sosiale media versprei word, dat die water giftig is, is vals. Dit is prosedure vir die munisipaliteit om daagliks elke twee uur die water te toets en elke sewe dae die water te laat toets om seker te maak dit is geskik vir menslike gebruik. Die onlangste toetse het bewys daar is geen tekens van gif nie en die water is veilig vir menslike gebruik.<span>wat tans onder chaoties omstandighede bestuur word en wat vir die afgelope ruk geen of
