Verskeie dorpe en selfs plase in die Witzenberg-streek moes die afgelope twee weke nie net beurtkrag trotseer nie, maar ook ernstige waterbeperkings weens die lae watervlakke in plaaslike damme.<\/p>\n
Die Witzenberg-munisipaliteit het voorverlede Woensdag (19 April) waarskuwings op sosiale media uitgereik en inwoners ingelig dat die dam wat water aan Tulbagh verskaf, slegs 20% vol is.<\/p>\n
\u201cDie Tulbagh-dam is bykans leeg. Die oorblywende 20% se vermo\u00eb is gelykstaande aan net \u2019n maand se watervoorraad.<\/p>\n
\u201cWaterbeperkings, oftewel onderbroke toevoer, is \u2019n proses waarin die kleppe na sekere watertoevoersones gedurende sekere tye toegedraai word om water te bespaar,\u201d het David Nasson, die munisipale bestuurder, ges\u00ea.<\/p>\n
Tulbagh is op \u2019n vlak-4-waterbeperking geplaas, terwyl dorpe soos Ceres, Bella Vista, Nduli en PA Hamlet op vlak 1 geplaas is.<\/p>\n
Volgens die munisipaliteit was die Koekedouwdam, wat hierdie dorpe (Tulbagh uitgesluit) van water voorsien, 37,2% vol. <\/p>\n
Die Tulbaghdam, oftewel die Vo\u00eblvleidam, se \u201cdag nul\u201d word vir 1 Julie voorspel.<\/p>\n
Ingevolge vlak 1 mag swembaddens nie gedurende die dag volgemaak word nie, tuine en parke mag nie van vroegdag tot in die middag natgemaak word nie en streng beheer en monitering deur wetstoepassers sal dit help verseker.<\/p>\n
Vlak 4 is egter meer ernstig van aard en beteken die watertoevoer word vir die grootste deel van die dag toegedraai en in party dele is water dan glad nie vir die publiek beskikbaar nie. <\/p>\n
\n Standard <\/i>het met verskeie ondernemings en individue in die streek gepraat, wat hul indrukke met ons gedeel het. \u2019n Kelner by die plaaslike Tulbagh-hotel, wat graag anoniem wil bly, het ges\u00ea hulle kan \u2013 net soos talle ander restaurante \u2013 nie meer sekere items soos masjienkoffie voorsien nie. <\/p>\n
\u201cOns kan wel lekker moerdrukker-koffie maak en is steeds gretig om besoekers by ons te verwelkom.<\/p>\n
\u201cOns is nou al amper twee weke lank op hierdie beperkingsvlak. Dit is iets om aan gewoond te raak.\u201d <\/p>\n
Kallie Strydom, \u2019n inwoner van Tulbagh, verduidelik dat mense moedeloos raak.<\/p>\n
\u201cEers sit ons met beurtkrag vir groot gedeeltes van die dag, en nou kan ons nie water gebruik nie.<\/p>\n
\u201cOns kan nie noodwendig die munisipaliteit blameer nie, want hulle kan ongelukkig nie re\u00ebn na ons gebied stuur nie, maar dit beteken dat ons as gemeenskap deurlopend deur die jaar moet oplet na waterverbruik en planne sal ingestel moet word om watervoorraad op te bou.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
