The Mariental Municipality has blamed NamWater for a water supply crisis that left large parts of the town, including residential areas and schools, without reliable water last week.
Water has since been restored, but municipal councillor Daniel Gariseb says the town was left in the dark.
“The sudden water suspension without prior notice compromised public health and damaged our local economy,” he says.
NamWater head of communications Lot Ndamanomhata yesterday said the interruption was caused by a pipeline failure at the Hardap Water Treatment Plant last week.
