The Integrated Vaal River System looks set to hit the 100% mark as heavy downpours continue to fall throughout the country, with major dams within the Vaal system rapidly rising to full capacity.
The biggest of the systems in the country with 14 dams, the Vaal system now hovers just a few shades below the 90% mark, at 89.4%, the water department said on Wednesday.
