DWA (The Department of Water Affairs) (please may we include their full name) has recommended the development of the Vulamehlo Cross Border Water Supply Scheme, which will serve cross border communities in Sisonke District (Ubuhlebezwe Municipality) and Ugu Districts (Vulamehlo and Umzumbe Municipalities). On completion, it is expected that the project will guarantee a water supply to 24,000 households.
The engineering solution will include the construction of the following:
- Raw water storage facilities, in the form of a dam with an estimated capacity or 3,500,000 m3
- Upgrade the existing water treatment plant from 1,800m3/day to 10,000m3/day
- Reticulation and bulk water conveying infrastructure
Phased construction is expected to commence around July 2014, subject to obtaining the necessary approvals.
The ZIYANDA team involved in the project is directed by Stanley Mgutshini. The Design Team Leader is Bongani Sibanda assisted by Nkosi Malishe, Bongani Mlalazi and Nombuliswa Magwaza.
