Cape Coast, Elmina residents should use water ‘wisely’ as galamsey triggers supply shortfall – GWCL

Management of Ghana Water Limited (GWL) in the Central Region has announced ongoing efforts to ensure adequate water supply to Cape Coast, Elmina, and nearby communities.

In a statement, GWL noted that water production at the Sekyere Hemang Water Treatment Plant, which serves these areas, has seen a notable decrease in turbidity levels, leading to increased water production.

According to GWL, the plant is now recording an average turbidity level of 9,000 NTU, down from the previous 14,000 NTU, thanks to interventions led by the Central Regional Security Council under the leadership of Regional Minister Justina Marigold Assan.

“As a result, production at the plant has increased from 1.98 million gallons per day to 2.77 million gallons per day,” the statement said, assuring residents that every effort is being made to meet water demand.

GWL also acknowledged the role of the Regional Security Council in improving the raw water quality and pledged to keep the public informed of any changes that might affect supply.

GWL also expressed its profound appreciation for the “assistance and prompt support” received from the Regional Security Council, particularly highlighting the leadership of the Regional Minister.

As the situation continues to improve, GWL has advised all customers to use drinking water wisely.
