This has affected the volumes of treated water being supplied to some parts of the north and south of the eThekwini Municipality. Over the past two weeks, there has been a substantial increase of volumes of algae in water received from the Albert Falls-Nagle Dam system. While the increased presence of algae is not common in the colder winter season, there has been an increased algal count at the Durban Heights Water Works which has led to the clogging of filters. Due to this increased presence of algae in raw water, the Durban Heights Water Treatment is currently unable to treat the full amounts of raw water it normally supplies to its customers. uMngeni-uThukela Water is currently implementing a number of interventions including optimising its water treatment processes and using advanced chemical treatment methods to unclog its filters. We are also undertaking ongoing water quality and quantity monitoring to ensure the production of safe drinking water.

Most dams in uMngeni-uThukela Water’s area of operation are above 80% of full supply capacity except for Ludeke, Hazelmere and Imvutshane dams due to safety reasons. DID YOU KNOW? Water is pumped from the Mooi River (i.e. Spring Grove Dam and Mearns Weir) into the Upper uMngeni System (i.e. Midmar Dam) through the Mooi-Mgeni Transfer Scheme. Let us make water conservation a priority, the demand for water far exceeds available water resources in some supply systems. #DAMMONDAY #makewatersafetyyourpriority #1waterboardforkzn
