KNYSNA NEWS - The Knysna Municipality said in a statement this morning, 14 May that the Rheenendal water supply was disrupted last night due to load-shedding, an external factor beyond the control of the municipality.
As a result, water pumping and treatment processes were affected, leading to low water pressure or no supply in certain areas.
"A minor leak that is further impacting pumping to the treatment works has been identified. Repairs will be undertaken during the course of the morning, and normal water supply is expected to be restored later today.
"In the interim, water tankers will be deployed to the affected areas. The Knysna supply zone also remains under pressure.
"Areas currently experiencing no water supply will be serviced by roaming water tankers.
"Residents in areas where water supply remains stable are urged to use water sparingly and only for essential purposes. We apologise for the inconvenience," the statement read.
