Report reveals bleak situation for water standards in South Africa. Nearly half of drinking water should be boiled before consumption!
The city of Gqeberha in South Africa is an example of how water is increasingly becoming a commodified resource, benefiting the powerful and depriving everyone else.
The City’s Faure and Steenbras Water Treatment Plants (WTP) excelled with above-average quality drinking water according to the 2023 Blue Drop Watch Report that was released by the National Department of Water and Sanitation (DWS) on Tuesday 6 June.
The latest Blue Drop Watch Report shows that drinking water produced from some municipal water treatment systems last year did not meet the minimum standards and could have posed a potential health risk to consumers.
The 2023 Blue Drop Watch Report has revealed that there has been a deterioration in drinking water quality since the last blue drop report was done.
