Residents have been warned to stay away from Clifton First Beach due to a sewage spill.
The City of Cape Town says the spill emanated from a blocked sewer.
“Members of the public are warned that any form of full contact, recreational activity such as swimming, diving, water skiing, paddle boarding and windsurfing may increase the risk of gastrointestinal problem as well as skin, eye, ear and respiratory irritations, ” says Mayoral Committee member JP Smith.
The City of Cape Town is gambling with the future of one of the world’s most unique ecosystems as it pushes ahead with drilling for groundwater from the Table Mountain Group (TMG) Aquifer, ecologists are warning.
A group of environmental scientists have raised concerns over drilling operations in the vicinity of the Steenbras Dam, a nature reserve and part of the Kogelberg Biosphere Reserve.
A ruling by the Western Cape High Court has been described as “a watershed ruling” for the preservation of Cape Town’s rivers, floodplains, and wetlands.
The judgement refers to a case in which the City approached the courts to order Really Useful Investments, a developer of the Hout Bay Beach Club, to remove infilling material from the floodplain of the Disa River.

Statement by the City’s Executive Mayor, Patricia de Lille
Today I visited the Postdam Wastewater Treatment Works where the City of Cape Town is making treated wastewater available to businesses dependent on water. By using treated water, businesses are reducing their use and reliance on drinking water. this is one of may ways in which the City and businesses are adapting to water scarcity and stretching drinking water supplies for essential use.
Recycling sewage into potable, drinking water is an extensive and complicated process, but it could be part of the solution for water-scare South Africa in future. The issue has come into the spotlight since the World Health Organisation published its “Portable Reuse Guidance for Producing Safe Drinking Water 2017′ report.
Fire risk assessments are the ideal way to develop and improve fire risk management from documenting findings, categorisation of risk areas, recommendations or requirements fir improvements as well as prioritisation of risk improvement measures, says the Fire Protection Association of Southern Africa (FPASA) MD Renay Sewpersad.

Illegal sand mining, along with dumping in and around the Philippi Horticultural Area (PHA) poses a huge risk of contamination to the underground Cape Aquifer, the Democratic Alliance has warned.
