-
The total column is obtained by adding the demand quantities for the three plants less the amount pumped into the Piiholo Reservoir from Kamole WTF.
-
Total water used for the day is the sum of Surface Water Production plus Groundwater Production.
-
Rounding differences may result in this report.
-
