Ten sluice gates at the Vaal dam will remain open on Friday, as the Department of Water and Sanitation (DWS) maintains the status quo.
By Friday, the dam’s water storage levels were 106.8%, with inflow of 1 327.52 m³/s and an outflow of 1 359 m³/s.
The DWS, however, has increased the outflows at the Bloemhof dam, through radial gates, by 200 m³/s to 1 202 m³/s, from 1 002 m³/s.
The water levels of the Bloemhof dam were recorded at 97.76% on Friday.
The DWS remains on high alert and will continue to conduct real-time monitoring of inflows at both Vaal and Bloemhof dams.
