Request to declare state of national disaster in WC

 

RAWSONVILLE, Western Cape - This year's fire season in the Western Cape has left a trail of destruction,

especially in the Cape Winelands and Overstrand district municipalities.

 

Now authorities there want the areas declared a provincial disaster and anxious farmers are concerned the runaway fires could affect the harvesting season and have a devastating impact on the wine industry.
