Water Supply Interruption – Endumeni Area

Dear Residents,

Please be informed of a temporary water supply interruption currently affecting Dundee, Glencoe, and surrounding areas in the Endumeni Local Municipality. This is due to a pump problem at the Tayside Pump Station. As a result, the plant has been shut down and no water is currently being pumped to the reservoir.

Our technicians are working urgently to repair the existing pump so that it can resume pumping water in the interim. The new replacement pump is anticipated to be installed next week. We are also working hand in hand with Uthukela Water to resolve the issue as quickly as possible.

We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience caused and thank you for your patience and understanding while we work to restore normal water supply.
Further updates will be provided as the situation develops.

We wish to inform you that due to the low levels of raw water supply, the water levels at the Biggarsberg Water Treatment Plant have dropped below 50% in the reservoir. As a result, water supply in Dundee and Glencoe will be affected as we will be temporarily closing the water supply to allow the reservoir levels to replenish.

We anticipate that the water supply will be restored and opened at 4:00 AM. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding as we work to ensure a steady water supply for our community.
