Africa-Press – Namibia. <\/strong><\/span>ON Thursday, just as Namwater announced the restoration of water supply at the coast, following issues at the Orano desalination plant and the Omdel and Kuiseb boreholes, a large sulfur bloom occurred, causing new water supply limitations.<\/p>\n

In December, Namwater issued a warning to the towns of Swakopmund and Walvis Bay about water supply disruptions due to sulfur outbreaks affecting the desalination process, and power supply challenges at the Omdel and Kuiseb boreholes. The utility company encouraged the coastal towns to ration water supply, which resulted in disruptions and low water pressure.<\/p>\n

Full water supply resumed on Thursday, but a sudden bloom on the same day resulted in Namwater’s acting head of the coastal business unit, Frans Ihuhua, advising the coastal towns, especially Swakopmund, to continue rationing, until 18 January or later.<\/p>\n

Orano communication consultant Christine de Klerk confirmed that the Erongo Desalination Plant (EDP) stopped operations again on Thursday due to elevated levels of sulfur in the Atlantic Ocean. De Klerk added that the period between December and April is the most active for sulfur outbreaks and that the EDP has had to stop production for an average of 13 to 15 days per year over the past five years due to this natural phenomenon.<\/p>\n
