    Water in the Western Cape Economy Report to the WATER RESEARCH COMMISSION by Guy Pegram and Hannah Baleta WRC Report No. 2075/1/13 ISBN 978-1-4312-0517-2 March 2014 Obtainable from Water Research Commission Private Bag X03 Gezina, 0031 [email protected] or download from www.wrc.org.za DISCLAIMER This report has been reviewed by the Water Research Commission (WRC) and approved for publication. Approval does not signify that the contents necessarily reflect the views and policies of the WRC nor does mention of trade names or commercial products constitute endorsement or recommendation for use. © Water Research Commission ii Executive Summary BACKGROUND There is increasing consensus in the international water, scientific and development communities that water scarcity will increase dramatically in many parts of the world in the next 20 to 30 years. This will have significant social, political and economic consequences. Awareness of climate change over the past decade has focused broad attention on water as a key resource under threat. This increasing water scarcity will have effects on agriculture, energy, trade, the environment, national sovereignty and international relations as nations who are water scarce continue to deplete their resources while looking to water rich areas to ensure their long term growth and sustainability. In South Africa, these factors increase the challenge of managing South Africa’s limited water resources to achieve economic and social justice imperatives. Historically, water planning has focused on water resources infrastructure development and operation, supported by demand management initiatives to reconcile water requirements and availability. However, as water resources are increasingly developed and utilised, catchment quantity and quality stress tend to increase.

NO. 12/12/20/1212 Following on from the recent NMA-run public presentations held in Caledon and Tesselaarsdal regarding the above-mentioned Draft Scoping Report (DSR), herewith please find our organisation’s preliminary response to this report. Attached is a copy of our current membership list (Annexure A), all being interested and affected parties with regard to the proposed high-voltage power line routes, specifically Alternatives 1, 2 and the ABI route proposal. This response is being submitted to you now in order to comply with the current public participation period which ends today. However, as you know, we have requested a postponement of the finalisation of this Scoping Report until at least August 2009 for the reasons stated in our letter to Ms Natalie Ritsch of Arcus Gibb dated 07 April 2009, not least of these reasons being the fact that we, as directly affected parties by the proposed routes, received no official notification of the project proposal and as such were not given the opportunity to participate in the scoping phase since its inception in July 2008. As this is the case, this response document is being submitted with the qualification that it is a preliminary and interim response, and in no way should be considered as our final or complete reaction.

  • The Case of the Breede-Gouritz Catchment Management Agency
    APPROACHES FOR EMERGING FARMER PARTICIPATION IN WATER RESOURCE MANAGEMENT: THE CASE OF THE BREEDE-GOURITZ CATCHMENT MANAGEMENT AGENCY (BGCMA), WESTERN CAPE Report to the WATER RESEARCH COMMISSION by Bongani Ncube Cape Peninsula University of Technology WRC Report No 2310/1/17 ISBN 978-1-4312-0944-6 January 2018 Obtainable from: Water Research Commission Private Bag X03 Gensina, 0031 [email protected] or download from www.wrc.org.za DISCLAIMER This report has been reviewed by the Water Research Commission (WRC) and approved for publication. Approval does not signify that the contents necessarily reflect the views and policies of the WRC, nor does mention of trade names or commercial products constitute endorsement or recommendation for use. Printed in the Republic of South Africa © Water Research Commission ii EXECUTIVE SUMMARY BACKGROUND When the National Water Act (NWA) was enacted in 1998, one of the major aims was to ensure equity in sharing water resources. Chapter 8, Sections 91 and 98 of the Act, makes provision for the setting up of water user associations (WUAs), cooperative associations of individual water users who wish to undertake water related activities for their mutual benefit. WUAs are supposed to act as vehicles for poverty reduction, especially for historically disadvantaged individuals (HDIs). Water allocation reforms followed the NWA in 2005, 2008 and 2011, with particular emphasis on HDIs. In agriculture, the major focus was on resource poor emerging farmers. However, after many years of water allocation reform, emerging farmers are still lagging behind as far as equity and access to water resources is concerned, and their participation in WUAs is still limited or passive.
