When residents in Klipplaat, one of the most impoverished areas in the Eastern Cape, turned on their taps on Saturday they discovered that their water had turned black. The Dr Beyers Naude Local Municipality, based in Graaff-Reinet, has admitted that there was a problem with “black water” in Klipplaat’s taps. However, spokesperson Edwardine Abader said they sorted out the problem on the same day. “Water interruptions occurred in Klipplaat as a result of low water levels and drought conditions. Whenever water quality problems occur, it is attended to on the same day. “The water was muddy as a result of old infrastructure and low water levels,” she said.
