Reduced operations at the Ebenezer Plant, Low rainfall over a period is now threatening freshwater supply from the Ebenezer Dam as it is now running below 13% of its full capacity. The average daily water supply from this scheme has reduced from 36 Ml/d to 20Ml per day. This has resulted in the water supply shortfall increasing from 30 Ml/day to 47 Ml/d.
