Water WOES! New YouTube channel logs sewage and water leaks in SA

Water WOES! New YouTube channel logs sewage leaks in SA: we at The Sardine News understand that sewage is not so lekka on a fishing channel. But we have long been protectors of the environment and unfortunately the sewage issues we face directly affect the fishing. And the diving. And even surfing.

Here is yet another notice this year – the eThekweni Municipality put out another warning against going in or even near the ocean waters, in some places. This is two weeks old but it shows the pattern of municipal dumping sewage and ecoli levels on the beaches.

Ecoli Warning

“16 SEPTEMBER 2022

CITY CLOSES SOME BEACHES

The City would like to advise the public that following the latest round of testing it has taken a decision to close some beaches with immediate effect as the water quality does not meet acceptable standards.

The following beaches are closed: Brighton, Ansteys, Point, Ushaka, Addington, South, Wedge, North, Bay of Plenty, Battery, Country Club Thekwini, Laguna, Baggies and Reunion beaches. All water activities at these beaches are banned.

Umhlanga main; Umdloti; Westbrooke and Bronze beaches in the northern region remain closed.

Beaches that remain open include Toti, Pipeline, Warner, Winklespruit; and Umgababa beaches.

The Municipality continues to test water quality at beaches on a regular basis and reacts in line with those results.”

Water WOES

It sounds a lot better if you say it in Afrikaans. But it works just fine in English too.

Both interpretations are correct and sum up the feeling all over South Africa right now. Desperate. But really angered by now! There is no segregation here in this camp. We are all fighting against the tyranny of the ANC. Together in this community.

This project/channel is just a little something that we can do. And was inspired by Memory Pieterse of IndepenceCA. Who is doing way more than her fair share of taking UGU Municipality on. With a class-action lawsuit! Amongst many other valiant causes.
