GREYTONIANS needing a beachholiday should pop up to LakeMerthley, where beach-likestretches of sand almost out dis-tance the amount of water cur-rently in the lake.

The situation is extremely seri-ous, with local officials claimingthe Lake is just about 40% full.

As can be seen in the photo-graph, the level is way below thewall - just over threemetersdown.

Unless action is taken rapidly,Greytonians could be facing a dis-astrous water shortage.

Greytown water is handled by

Umzinyathi District Municipality,which has not replied to requestsfor information.

Neither has Umvoti Municipali-ty.

In response toanurgent requestfrom the Greytown Gazette, theDepartment of Water Affairs, de-spite being given short notice tomeetMonday’sdeadline,respond-ed indetail pointingout the follow-ing:

*The water supply operatingrule for LakeMerthley, and the sixboreholeswhichaugment thesup-ply, is touse theLake’s surfacewa-

ter resources when it is spilling.Once spilling stops, the damwatershould be used conjunctively withgroundwater from the boreholes.This is neededas requirements al-ready exceed the yield of the dam.

*A drought operating rule wasdeveloped involving allocation toconsumers based on volume ofwater to be drawn, without in-creasing risk of the dam runningdry.

*Although this rule was devel-oped to accommodate require-ments of up to 5.4ML per day, thedam is over allocated.

These rules developed a de-mand of 4.4ML day, with full utili-sation of the boreholes.

“Water restrictions should beimplemented when the damreaches90%storagevolume inor-der to protect the lake from longterm failure.”

The Lake is now at just 40% andno restrictions have been imple-mented. Umzinyathi made a half

*The operating rule suggestsminimal restrictions to start at90% storage with more severe re-strictions - that is greater than20% reduction when below 40%storage.

This is the current situation, butto date no restrictions.

InNovember2014, theKZNPre-mier declared a provincial state ofdisasterdue tocontinuingdroughtin nine district municipalities andin December, DWA reprioritizedR350- million to assist thesedrought stricken municipalities

A spokesperson for the Depart-ment said that it will be analysingthe situation, investigating it fur-ther and convening a droughtcommittee to assist Umzinyathidevelop any necessary interven-tions.

In viewof the really serious con-sequences of such a water short-age, it is hoped that remedial ac-tion is to be taken immediately -the searing hot weather and lackof rain certainly compound the sit-uation.

Addingto thedireconsequencesis the quality of water in someparts of town - a strong smell andit is undrinkable.

Water restrictions cannotbede-layed any longer to avoid a majorcrisis for Greytown residents andbusinesses.

Under 15 Davids Midas league

PHOTO: SUPPLIEDOn 20 December, Black Dot community development ended the under 15 Davids Midas leagueat Ngome in the Bhambatha stadium. The prize winning team was ABC football club, secondwas BJ Stars and in third place was Wina Sambe. A big thank you to the Black Dot officialsponsors Midas Davids, Min Cash, SAB and Aquelle.

PORTULACAS blooming good nature hasafforded it some interesting names aroundtheworld -“TimeFuul”whichmeans“timeflower” inBangladesh,“NauBajiya”mean-ing“9o’clock flower” in Indiaand“Hoam igi ” meaning "ten o’clock flower" in Viet-nam.

Portulacas need sun - lots of it. In fact,the whole day long if possible.Luckily most gardens have those patcheswhere not much grows because it gets toomuch sun, and the soil is not terribly fertilebecause of the hammering it gets from theunrelenting rays. This is the perfect placefor Portulaca, and the once desert lookingpatch will turn into a fiery colour palettebefore you know it.

It’s quite simple. Just remember to avoidareas with shade or waterlogged soil anddon’t worry if the soil is not richwith nutri-ents because they’ll grow in sandy soilswith practically no attention. Being water-wise little plants, keep the water in the tapuntil it’sneededandtrynot topummel theirsoft leaves with hard overhead watering.

Plant up your Portulacas in rockeries,

hanging baskets, pots, between steppingstones and even as a ground cover if thatis what you need. Their eye-catching col-ours will make any of these areas impossi-ble to miss. They are available in scarlet,orange and yellow or white and pastelshades for a more understated feel.

There is no need to dead-head Portula-cas, but giving them a good haircut in latesummerwhen theyget leggywill affordyouanother blooming burst in autumn. For themost part, even though people find themeye-catching, luckily not many pests shareour view. If you find nematodes and aphidsseempartial to yourcrop,plantingacoupleof Marigolds as companions will act as anatural pest repellent.

An added feature, which not many peo-ple are aware of, is that they attract beesin their droves.Don’t get a fright if your flowers die afterthe bees have visited though because it’sperfectly natural for them to do so aboutan hour after pollination. - Supplied by theBedding Plant Growers Association.

From the courts

JACK Drew and Geoff Basel playedagainst Francois vanRooyenandWendyEdwards on Saturday in the semi-finalsof the drawn pairs.

It was very close, with the half timescore being 12-13 - so anyone's game.

After tea, Jack and Geoff managed topull out somemorestopsandwon21-19.

TheymeetBryanPaulandChrisFisch-er in the finals.

On the notice board is the entry formfor the second running of the SpecsaversProten pairs. The closing date is comingup soon so please enter now.

This is an exciting challenge game often ends - each end is worth ten pointsand you canwin or lose all ten points be-cause you score four points for the near-est bowls, three for second, two for thirdand the lowly fourth gets one point.

It makes you concentrate hard other-wise you get nothing. It is also ten endsper games so you are playing as manyas four games in a day.
