Johannesburg: Authorities in South Africa say "Day Zero," the date when Cape Town
would have to turn off most water taps because of a drought, might not
happen at all this year because of water conservation efforts.
The
Democratic Alliance, the opposition party that runs the city of 4
million, said today that taps will remain open if residents continue to
consume water at current restricted levels and there is adequate winter
rainfall, which is expected soon.
