# Rand Water announced an emergency supply cut to Ekurhuleni and Tshwane metros, as well as three local municipalities, due to a power outage at the Mapleton Pumping Station in Boksburg, Gauteng. The utility says the outage has disrupted pumping operations and reduced water supply to several reservoirs. Rand Water says technicians are working to restore power and stabilise supply. They urge residents to use water sparingly while affected municipalities implement contingency measures to mitigate the impact of the ongoing supply cuts.
