    Water Resources and Water Management in the Bahurutshe Heartland

    Water resources and water management in the Bahurutshe heartland Saroné Van Niekerk1 and Kobus Du Pisani2* 1 Research Focus Area Sustainable Social Development, North-West University, Potchefstroom, South Africa 2 Subject Group History, North-West University, Potchefstroom, South Africa Abstract With this study a brief descriptive survey, covering the period from 1972 to the present, of the water resources in the Lehurut- she district, formerly part of Bophuthatswana and now part of the Zeerust district of the North-West Province, is given. Both surface water bodies (rivers, catchments, drainage systems, wetlands, pans, dams and reservoirs) and groundwater resources (aquifers, dolomitic eyes, springs and boreholes) of Lehurutshe are discussed in terms of the quantity and quality of their water yields. Water provision and water use are assessed and observations made about water management in Lehurutshe in the context of shifting hydropolitical objectives in South Africa. Keywords: Lehurutshe, surface water resources, groundwater resources, water management Introduction In the north-western corner of South Africa, bor- dering Botswana, lies a piece of land that has been occupied for at least the past 300 years by the Bahurutshe, a section of the Tswana people. Dur- ing the apartheid period this hilly terrain, covering just over 250 000 ha, formed a block of the Bophut- hatswana homeland and was named Lehurutshe 1 District (Bophuthatswana Region Planning book, 1974b: Map 4.1). It is now part of the Zeerust dis- trict of the North-West Province and is situated on the western side of the semi-arid Bushveld and Bankenveld of the Marico region. Figure 1 indi- cates where Lehurutshe is located in relation to the Zeerust district, the Crocodile (West) Marico Catchment (one of 19 catchments identified in South Africa) and the rest of South Africa.
