Tokologo Local Municipality is responsible for providing safe, clean, and reliable drinking water to all residents within its jurisdiction, including Boshof, Dealesville, and Hertzogville.
Water service delivery is guided by national legislation such as the Water Services Act (Act 108 of 1997), which places the responsibility for water provision on local government, while national authorities monitor and regulate performance.
To ensure that water supplied to communities is safe, the municipality aligns with national standards such as SANS 241, which sets strict requirements for:
- Microbiological safety (free from harmful bacteria)
- Chemical safety (safe for long-term consumption)
- Physical quality (clear, acceptable taste and appearance)
