Following a spate of water shortage in Nairobi and its immediate satellite towns, it is now illegal to wash your vehicle with treated water from Nairobi water supplier.
The Ndakaini dam level dropped down forcing the county government to thirst Nairobians in the name of rationing. Ndakaini is the biggest quencher of Nairobi.
The Nairobi City Water & Sewerage Company Ltd. would like to put on notice that all Car Wash service vendors have been ordered to cease operations forthwith.
This is due to the ongoing water predicament, the recent water distribution schedule and the Meteorological reports in the public domain as regards to the weather patterns.
This is aimed at water conservation as the vendors use treated water to wash vehicles which is prejudicial during this difficult times.
Stringent measures will be taken against the car wash sites that contravene this order as well as the operators/owners.
