ETHEKWINI WATER & SANITATION: REPAIRS TO MV SWITCHGEAR
INTRODUCTION:
According to the bylaws, Southern WWTW is required to accept and to some degree treat the domestic and
industrial sewage from households and companies from most of the South Durban Regions including
Chatsworth, Jacobs, Badulla, Merebank, Bluff and parts of Isipingo. It is also mandated to receive tanker
discharges from industries and domestic tankers from mobile sanitation units. The Pollution Department of
EWS also monitors these discharges and ensures that they comply. The total effluent (domestic, industrial,
tankers etc.) received is around 60% of the city’s effluent.
The lower level storage tanks have been built to increase storage capacity at peak flows and thereby protect
the receiving environment, but the correct operation of these tanks is important to ensure that the odours
are reduced with an aim to completely eradicate it. Four 6 600V pumps are connected to these sumps to
drain the effluent and discharge.
This contract is for the repairs to the MV Switchgear for pump #4, to bring it into operation.
Broad Scope Description
Tenderers are invited to tender for the overhaul of the above-mentioned MV switchgear.
