Some residents of the Vaal, have taken to social media claiming water from the Vaal dam, is poisoned.
A resident said there’s a whattsapp message doing the rounds that “some Indians were found pouring poison in the Vaal Dam, that supplies water to Gauteng taps.”
Rand Water, said on Wednesday, this is untrue.
“Rand Water would like to assure members of the public, that the water it supplies to all its customers, including eMfuleni Local Municipality, is free of any contamination, and complies with the South African National Standards (Sans) 241.”
The Water Utility also urged those sending these messages to stop.
