THE final phase of the rehabilitation of the Kuiseb–Collector 2–Schwarzkuppe–Swakopmund pipeline system is officially under way, with the project expected to be completed within the next year.
“The project we are launching today represents the final phase of the rehabilitation of the Kuiseb–Collector 2–Schwarzkuppe–Swakopmund Pipeline System, commonly known as the CSS Pipeline. Originally commissioned in 1974, this strategic pipeline has served the Erongo Region for more than five decades. Through successive rehabilitation programmes, more than 62 kilometres of the system have already been successfully replaced. Today, we commence the replacement of the remaining priority sections—Sections 6B and 6C—thereby eliminating the last significant bottleneck within this critical water supply scheme,” Namibia Water Corporation (NamWater) Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Abraham Nehemia said during the groundbreaking ceremony.
