The Mvutshane Dam which supplies water to the Maphumulo Local Municipality under the ILembe District Municipality will undergo a phased lowering from its current 63, 7% level to 40% with effect from 15 July until 15 August 2024.
This is to allow for the rehabilitation and strengthening of the dam embankment against erosion. This dam will be maintained at the 40% level until 10 September 2024 when the rehabilitation work is expected to be completed.
During this time, uMngeni-uThukela Water will continue to treat and supply normal volumes of water and no water disruptions are therefore anticipated.
