The Woodstock Dam is 93% of full supply capacity. DID YOU KNOW? Through the Tugela-Vaal Water Transfer Scheme, the Woodstock Dam supports bulk water supply to the Gauteng Province. The dam is also a source of electricity (hydropower) through the Drakensberg Pumped Storage Scheme. Let us make water conservation a priority, the demand for water far exceeds available water resources in some supply systems! #DAMMONDAY
