Masinga and Kiambere reservoirs are now spilling, KenGen has warned.
A notification of spillage of Seven Forks dam has, however, been issued after the Seven Forks dams lessen the inflows from the Tana and Aberdare catchment areas since the onset of the long rains.
In a statement by KenGen on Tuesday, the company notified communities living downstream of Kiambere, especially the low lying areas of Garissa and Garsen, to take precautionary measures adding it was not possible to ascertain the situation of inflows of rivers downstream.
It was observed that the heavy rainfalls over the last four days have been unprecedented and culminated in the filling up of all the reservoirs in the flow, read part of the statement by Francis Kawa, the company’s operation manager, eastern hydros.
