Despite a decline in dam levels of 0.7% to 73,4% of storage capacity, water consumption has decreased by 10 million ℓ per day! Let’s stick to 70ℓ while awaiting the water assessment from the National Department of Water and Sanitation. https://t.co/vtNnuHLr2M #ThinkWaterCT

On 1 October restrictions and the associated tariffs will drop to Level 5. The usage limit will increase to 70ℓ per person per day and tariffs will be reduced by 26,6% - 70% per kilolitre of water, depending on your usage and tariff category. https://t.co/0JJejtz3Mv

#DamLevels have reached the 50% mark! 😍 #CapeTownWaterCrisis

[Cory Zue @czue]

fun fact: as of June 28, dam levels are higher than at any point in the last 17 months, and are substantially higher than they were two years ago at this time. 🌧️🌧️🌧️#capetowndrought #CapeTownRain #capetownwatercrisis #CapeTownCrisis

No #DayZero for 2019. (If appropriate water restrictions are maintained). #CapeTownDrought

Thank you for saving, Team Cape Town. We’ve reduced our collective water usage by 20 million litres over the last week. It’s vital that we keep saving, despite the rain. Take the #50LitreLife challenge to see how you can save: https://t.co/8yPg1Y7KL4

Why are we so happy about #DayZero being pushed out? Our dams are still empty. No new recycling plants or desalination. No new water that makes any kind of significant change to our water supply anyway. No surety of how much rain we will get this winter. #CapeTownWaterCrisis
