Twenty nine temporary employment opportunities for local residents will be created through the creation of a polluter.
In June 2008 a property owner cleaned out his septic tank after this had become blocked due to heavy rains.
During the clean-up operations an estimated 200 litres of diesel and oil was spilled and washed into the adjacent property.
This resulted in the borehole water which was used for drinking becoming contaminated.
Department of Water Affairs spokesperson Aziel Gangerdine said the after the department stepped in, and the owner will now spend
R452 000 to rehabilitate the land.
