The
Minister of Water and Environmental Affairs, Mrs. Edna Molewa, together with
the Premier of Mpumalanga Province Mr. David Mabuza, will on Monday 17 March 2014
officially launch the 2014 National Water Week which is dated 17 – 23 March 2014, as
well as the Bushbuckridge Integrated Water Scheme.
Bushbuckridge
become popular because of the protests week after week residents demanding
water.
Minister
Molewa promises last year that by the beginning of 2014 Bushbuckridge households
have running water on their backyards.
This Water Scheme is critical to the area of
Bushbuckridge that used to experience critical water shortages and water of low
quality.
It is apt
that this water scheme be launched on the same day as the launch of this year’s
National water Week which seeks to highlight the important and central role
played by water in the socio-economic development of all strata of society.
The
Minister will start at Inyaka Water
Treatment Works at 10h00, and Then she will be unveiling of the plaque and site
tour.
