Raw Water Source To Sekyere Hemang Water Treatment Plant Improves Significantly GWCL

The quality of raw water source to the Sekyere Hemang Water Treatment plant in the Central Region has enhanced significantly by approximately 35.71 per cent, the Ghana Water organization Limited has said.

In a statement dated October 3, 2024, the GWCL said as a result, the plant, which provides water to residents of Cape Coast, Elmina and its surroundings, now produces 2,773,807 Gallons/Day, a sharp increase from the previous 1,981,290 Gallons/Day.

“The Sekyere Hemang Water Treatment is currently recording an average turbidity of 9,000 NTU as compared to the previous average turbidity of 14,000 NTU through the effort of the Central Regional Security Council led by the the Regional Minister, Justina Marigold Assan,” the GWCL statement said.

The GWCL has therefore assured customers within Cape Coast, Elmina and the surrounding communities that efforts are being made to supply adequate water to meet their demand.

“Effort is being made by the Central Regional Security Council to help improve the raw water source quality."

“We hope to update the public periodically of any changes to the raw water quality which will significantly affect water supply,” the statement said.graphiconline
