esidents of De Tijger in Parow were caught off guard on Friday 27 October when their water supply was disrupted or totally cut off. Although some residents can afford to buy bottled water from local retailers, their concern is what they should do when it comes to flushing their toilets. An enquiry was lodged with the City of Cape Town, and the City responded by saying that due to the critical nature of the available water supply, all water users across the metro must expect water rationing, which could lead to water supply disruptions. “Residents can expect disruptions during peak water usage times in the mornings (between 05:00 and 09:00) and in the evenings (between 17:00 and 21:00) if usage is above the required levels. It must be noted that theoretically everyone should have water, but that the duration of the outages would depend on the water usage for the area and whether it is within the water restriction levels,” said Hayley van der Woude, acting media manager for the City. “The City supplies sufficient water to an area, but if the demand is too high then those in high-lying areas or high-lying properties

will experience some outages. The City therefore appeals to those in lower lying areas to reduce usage to assist in terms of outages in the higher lying areas. “Service will be restored as soon as demand decreases to within the limitations of Level 5 water restrictions. If an area is using above the daily water limit, rationing through advanced pressure management will continue until the limit is reached. “It is therefore difficult to pin down an exact time for the duration of supply interruptions, as it depends on the behaviour of the consumers within a pressure zone.” According to her the City is supplying water according to the required level as per the water restrictions. “If more water is used than what is supplied, outages could be experienced. If an area is using water above the daily limitation, pressure will be reduced to the required level to force consumption down. When consumers reduce consumption, pressure is restored,” Van der Woude said. She advised residents to keep between five and 10 litres of drinking water available for the household during rationing. This water should be stored ahead of time in clean, sealed containers. V To page 7.
