Pigg's Peak regularly experienced water shortages. The addition of Mlambo Village would aggravate this situation and the Project therefore constructed a bulk water supply system from the Maguga Dam to Pigg's Peak. The construction of a bulk water supply was a joint venture between the Project and the Swaziland Water Services Corporation (SWSC), which financed the treatment plant at the dam and the storage reservoir in Pigg's Peak. The system comprises of five booster stations and a provision of 10 L/s water supply for communities along the North Access roads. This system, operated by SWSC, was intended to alleviate the frequent water shortage problem in Pigg's Peak up to the year 2010. The SWCS should reassess and consider if the scheme should be expanded further after 2010.
