OK Theewater is 39 years old (built 78).     For strategic water maths there are a two key factors:

1.  How much has storage increased since 1980 and how much has population increased?

2.  At 100% level in all dams, how many years of normal consumption does the system hold now and how how does that number compare to 1980?

The CPT spin department is putting out selective stats.   A look at rain for last 50 or 60 years shows a very obvious cyclical pattern and we are simply in a dip now.
