VAAL RIVER THREATENED: RESORT, NEARBY BUSINESSES MAY CLOSE.
Tourism businesses situated near the Vaal River in the Free State and nearby areas might have to close if the government does not find a permanent solution to the sewage spillage problem in the area.
The Vaal River is one of the biggest water sources in the country.
It flows through several provinces including the Free State, North West, Northern Cape and Gauteng.
However, the sewage pollution and other related pollutants are negatively affecting businesses near the river that benefit from the river as a tourist attraction.
One of the affected businesses is The Vaal River Resort, which is to host a major bikers' rally in November.
There are several other businesses in the vicinity such as those offering skydiving, hot air ballooning, biking, river sports and boat cruises.
