The Blossoms project aims to install a 22km pipeline and pumping infrastructure from existing boreholes that have been drilled in the Blossoms area, to the town’s existing water network. This will supply up to 50% of the town’s drinking water and will be linked to the existing Klein Karoo Rural Water Supply Scheme which provides some water to the Kannaland Municipality. The installation of JoJo tanks (water reservoirs) for each household is a priority, while sustainable bulk water supply, wastewater management, water resource development and water purification facilities will positively support other planned development and therefore pre-sent tangible investment opportunities.
