Key insights

These include the Umzinyathi District Municipality and Uthukela Local Municipality in Kwazulu Natal, Mkhondo and Dr JS Moroka Local Municipalities in Mpumalanga, and the Dr Ruth Mopani District, Kgetlengrivier Local, and Ngaka Modiri Molema District Municipalities in North West, as well as the Cape Agulhas Local and Eden District Municipalities in the Western Cape.
- The Department of Water officially notified municipalities of the requirement to submit a corrective action plan as per the Green Drop report, but the municipalities that failed to comply did not provide reasons for their non-compliance.
