Rainwater and Fog harvesting

Interventions with quick-win benefits and which should be implemented as a matter of urgency:

• Tariff structure White River and Hazyview

• WC/WDM – various WDCs

• Water use conversions – licences to be issued by DWA

• System operating rules – White River Dams

• Groundwater developments – various WDCs

Wrap-up Discussion

Possible Quick-wins

Interventions with longer term benefits but which must receive immediate attention:

• Invasive Alien Plant removals – start in Kwena and Primkop Dam catchments.

• Reallocation of water – search for irrigation entitlements of willing sellers.

• Dam Construction – Dam development studies for Boschjeskop, Mountain View and Strathmore Dams.

• Rain and Fog water harvesting – By-laws on Rainwater tanks for new developments and experimental fog-water harvesting plant at Kaapsehoop.

Wrap-up Discussion

Immediate Actions For Longer Term Interventions

Issues to be carried over to the Continuation Study:

• Confirmation on demographics.

• Assessment of irrigation water which is currently not in use and which can probably be traded.

• Matsulu water shortages problem as a result of weir intercepting its water.

• Confirmation of Nelspruit’s water demands.

Wrap-up Discussion

Continuation Study

Issues to be carried over to the Continuation Study:

• Limiting losses and lowering unit consumptions for all WDCs.

• Stabilisation of the continuous interrupted water supply – Nsikazi South.

• Progressive improvement of the integrity of the distribution system Nsikazi North.
