  • Namaqualand and Challenges to the Law Community Resource
    •' **• • v ^ WiKSHOr'IMPOLITICIALT ... , , AWD POLICY ANALYSi • ; ' st9K«onTHp^n»< '" •wJ^B^W-'EP.SrTY NAMAQUALAND AND CHALLENGES TO THE LAW: COMMUNITY RESOURCE MANAGEMENT AND LEGAL FRAMEWORKS Henk Smith Land reform in the arid Namaqualand region of South Africa offers unique challenges. Most of the land is owned by large mining companies and white commercial farmers. The government's restitution programme which addresses dispossession under post 1913 Apartheid land laws, will not be the major instrument for land reform in Namaqualand. Most dispossession of indigenous Nama people occurred during the previous century or the State was not directly involved. Redistribution and land acquisition for those in need of land based income opportunities and qualifying for State assistance will to some extent deal with unequal land distribution pattern. Surface use of mining land, and small mining compatible with large-scale mining may provide new opportunities for redistribution purposes. The most dramatic land reform measures in Namaqualand will be in the field of tenure reform, and specifically of communal tenure systems. Namaqualand features eight large reserves (1 200 OOOha covering 25% of the area) set aside for the local communities. These reserves have a history which is unique in South Africa. During the 1800's as the interior of South Africa was being colonised, the rights of Nama descendant communities were recognised through State issued "tickets of occupation". Subsequent legislation designed to administer these exclusively Coloured areas, confirmed that the communities' interests in land predating the legislation. A statutory trust of this sort creates obligations for the State in public law. Furthermore, the new constitution insists on appropriate respect for the fundamental principles of non-discrimination and freedom of movement.

  • Kamieskroon Bulk Water Supply, Portion 4 of Farm 445, Kamiesberg Municipality, Northern Cape
    1 PALAEONTOLOGICAL HERITAGE COMMENT: KAMIESKROON BULK WATER SUPPLY, PORTION 4 OF FARM 445, KAMIESBERG MUNICIPALITY, NORTHERN CAPE John E. Almond PhD (Cantab.) Natura Viva cc, PO Box 12410 Mill Street, Cape Town 8010, RSA [email protected] January 2018 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The overall palaeontological impact significance of the proposed Bulk Water Supply System development on Portion 4 of Farm 445 near Kamieskroon, Namaqualand, Northern Cape, is considered to be VERY LOW because the study area is underlain by unfossiliferous metamorphic basement rocks (granite-gneisses, migmatites etc) and / or mantled by superficial sediments of low palaeontological sensitivity while the development footprint is very small and in part already disturbed. It is therefore recommended that, pending the exposure of significant new fossils during development, exemption from further specialist palaeontological studies and mitigation be granted for this development. 1. PROJECT OUTLINE The proposed Bulk Water Supply System development on Portion 4 of Farm 445 near Kamieskroon, Kamiesberg Municipality, Northern Cape involves the following infrastructural components (CTS Heritage 2017; Fig. 1): • equipment for existing boreholes; • equipment for additional boreholes; • construction of a 600kl clean water storage reservoir; • installation of pipelines; • construction of a Water Treatment Works (desalination plant) and associated evaporation ponds (waste brine). 2. GEOLOGICAL CONTEXT The footprint of the proposed Bulk Water Supply System development is situated at c. 770 m asl in fairly flat, disturbed, semi-arid, rocky terrain on the outskirts of the town of Kamieskroon, some 600 m southeast of the N7 trunk road (Fig. 1).

    1 PALAEONTOLOGICAL HERITAGE COMMENT: ROOIFONTEIN BULK WATER SUPPLY ON THE REMAINDER OF LELIEFONTEIN 614, KAMIESBERG MUNICIPALITY, NORTHERN CAPE John E. Almond PhD (Cantab.) Natura Viva cc, PO Box 12410 Mill Street, Cape Town 8010, RSA [email protected] January 2018 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The overall palaeontological impact significance of the proposed Bulk Water Supply System development on the Remainder of Leliefontein 614 near Rooifontein, Namaqualand klipkoppe region of the Northern Cape, is considered to be LOW. This is because the study area is underlain by unfossiliferous metamorphic basement rocks (granite-gneisses etc) and / or mantled by superficial sediments of low palaeontological sensitivity (e.g. alluvium of the Buffelsrivier), while the development footprint is very small. It is therefore recommended that, pending the exposure of significant new fossils during development, exemption from further specialist palaeontological studies and mitigation be granted for this development. The archaeologist carrying out the field assessment of the study area should report to SAHRA any substantial unmapped areas of alluvial gravels or well-consolidated finer alluvial sediments encountered, since these might contain fossil bones and teeth of mammals. 1.

    HOUSEHOLD ENERGY USE IN NAMAQUALAND URBAN AREAS A study of household energy consumption patterns in eleven un-electrified urban settlements M.L.BORCHERS F.M.ARCHER P.RA VENSCROFT University of Cape Town Energy for Development Research Centre Energy Research Institute University of Cape Town April1991 ABSTRACT Current household energy consumption patterns have been examined for the black and coloured urban settlements in Namaqualand of Port Nolloth, Pofadder, Caries, Vioolsdrif, Kamieskroon, Onseepkans, Nababeep, Bergsig, Okiep, Matjieskloof, and Hondeklipbaai. These settlements have either no, or only partial access to, electricity. Fuels used, expenditure on energy, preferred energy sources, and problems regarding energy supply have been studied. Gas is the most widely used fuel in the area, although wood and paraffin are more important energy sources in a few settlements: There is a strong preference for electricity in all areas. Grid electrification using the Eskom "Sl" tariff system is clearly affordable in most settlements, and it is likely to reduce current energy expenditure levels. Full electrification with community participation is recommended for all settlements except for Vioolsdrif and Onseepkans, where the need for a more detailed study has been identified. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Project objectives & methodology The project objectives were to examine energy use patterns in the largely unelectrified coloured and black urban settlements of Namaqualand where residents either have no, or only partial access to electricity, and to formulate initial recommendations with respect to energy supply in the area. The settlements studied were : Port Nolloth, Pofadder, Caries, Vioolsdrif, Kamieskroon, Onseepkans, Nababeep, Bergsig, Okiep, Ma~ieskloof, and Hondeklipbaai. Information was gathered by means of interviews based on questionnaires.

  • Bathyergus Janetta – Namaqua Dune Mole-Rat
    Bathyergus janetta – Namaqua Dune Mole-rat Assessment Rationale The Namaqua Dune Mole-rat was previously listed as Near Threatened due to the threat of continued habitat destruction of three isolated subpopulations. It is currently listed as Least Concern because there is no evidence for population decline and it occupies habitats that are highly protected and restricted from the public. However, the presumed lack of dispersal and increasing habitat destruction remain major concerns for subpopulations of this species. This is especially true along the coastal regions, where the threat of diamond mining is yet to be quantified. If the mines are rehabilitated, the species may H. Lutermann still not be able to recolonize these sites. Resultantly, this species should be reassessed when data on the impact of mining become available. Regional Red List status (2016) Least Concern* Regional population effects: Due to disjunctions in the National Red List status (2004) Near Threatened distribution, dispersal is impossible. Reasons for change Non-genuine Global Red List status (2016) Least Concern Distribution TOPS listing (NEMBA) (2007) None This species ranges from the north-western regions of the Northern Cape (near Rondawel) northwards along the CITES listing None coast to about 90 km into southern Namibia (Figure 1) Endemic Near (Faulkes et al. 2004; Jarvis 2013).

  • From Southern Africa
    Bothalia 36.1: 39-44(2006) Two new species of Nemesia (Scrophulariaceae) from southern Africa KE. STEINER* Keywords: Kamiesberg, Namibia, Nemesia Vent., new species, Richtersveld, Scrophulariaceae. seed dimorphism, southern Africa ABSTRACT Two new annual species of Nemesia Vent, are described from southern Africa. N. williamsonii is characterized by bright orange flowers with an inflated yellow palate. It differs from the related N. maxii Hiem by having a spur that projects back­ wards, not downwards, and bracts that are lanceolate with a truncate base, not triangular or cordate. It is unusual for the genus in having dimorphic seeds. N. williamsonii occurs almost exclusively in the Richtersveld. but has been collected in a few localities across the Orange River in southern Namibia. N. hemiptera is a delicate, wiry-stemmed annual with small white flowers. The flowers are characterized by a tiny nipple-like spur and a seed that is winged on onlv one side. N. hem iptera is endemic to the Kamiesberg from near Garies to Kamieskroon. INTRODUCTION lar pilose. Corolla bilabiate. 10.1-16.1 x 9.6-14.6 mm. upper lip four-lobed. two inner (upper) lobes oblong to Nemesia Vent, is a genus of ± 60 species of annual obovate, 2.7-5.1 x 2.8-3.8 mm. base strongly oblique, and perennial herbs endemic to southern Africa (Steiner apex rounded to emarginate, two outer (lateral) lobes 1994). It has been over a hundred years since the last oblong, 3.1-5.1 x 3.2-4.1 mm. base strongly oblique, revision of the genus (Hiem 1904) and since that time apex rounded to emarginate; upper lip orange (rarely yel­ many new species have come to light (Steiner 1989, low, see Thompson & Le Roux 364) except for a bright 1994).
