| Regulatory Comments 2011 : |
It is evident that the municipality made a concerted effort to improve on the 2011 performance. This is evident through the 100% improvement in scores in two of its systems. It is also remarkable that with the assistance of Sedibeng Water the performance of Pampierstad is more or less maintained within the context of even more stringent regulatory requirements.
However there is also room for improvement within many aspects of the Blue Drop indicators. The inspectors could not be convinced of at least a good performance in most of the key performance areas assessed. In Hartswater and Jan Kempdorp the municipality should proceed on the improvement curve to ensure the desired level of performance.
The Department is concerned with the fact that average daily consumption figures of Hartswater are reasonably high. Attention should be given to this to ensure that water losses are reduced through the implementation of a practical water use efficiency strategy.
Treatment operations and management is not up to standard either. This situation demands the attention of management to ensure that all possible risks are identified and addressed. Failure to do so will transpire in poor microbiological and chemical water quality compliance which would be indicative of a public health risk.
