BOTSWANA ENVIRONMENT STATISTICS WATER DIGEST 2018 Statistics Botswana PREFACE This is Statistics Botswana’s annual Botswana Environment Statistics: Water Digest. It is the first solely water statistics annual digest. This Digest will provide data for use by decision-makers in water management and development and provide tools for the monitoring of trends in water statistics. The indicators in this report cover data on dam levels, water production, billed water consumption, non-revenue water, and water supplied to mines. It is envisaged that coverage of indicators will be expanded as more data becomes available. International standards and guidelines were followed in the compilation of this report. The United Nations Framework for the Development of Environment Statistics (UNFDES) and the United Nations International Recommendations for Water Statistics were particularly useful guidelines. The data collected herein will feed into the UN System of Environmental Economic Accounting (SEEA) for water and hence facilitate an informed management of water resources.

Botswana Environment Statistics Water Climate
BOTSWANA ENVIRONMENT STATISTICS: WATER & CLIMATE DIGEST 2014 Published by Statistics Botswana Private Bag 0024, Gaborone Phone: 3671300 Email: [email protected] Contact Unit: Environment Statistics Unit Phone: 3671395 Copyright Reserved © 2015 Extracts may be published if Sources are duly acknowledged ISBN: 978-99968-429-8-6 PREFACE This is the first edition of the Botswana Environment: Water and Climate Digest, which eventually will be produced on a quarterly basis. The purpose of the Digest is to provide data for use by decision-makers in water management as well as for monitoring trends related to climate. The indicators in this report cover data on dam levels, water production, rainfall and temperature. The indicators will however be gradually expanded in subsequent editions as more data become available. In compiling this report, international standards and guidelines were followed, particularly the United Nations Framework for the Development of Environment Statistics (UNFDES) and the United Nations International Recommendations for Water Statistics. Eventually, the data collected through these methodologies would feed into the UN System of Environmental Economic Accounting (SEEA) for water and hence facilitate an informed management of water resources. The sustained production of the Water and Climate Digest would depend on the cooperation of relevant data providers to provide the necessary data. I therefore would like to extend by gratitude and appreciation to all stakeholders who assisted in the production of this digest, in particular the Water Utilities Corporation and the Department of Meteorological Services for availing the water and climate data as required. For more information and further enquiries, contact the Directorate of Stakeholder Relations at 3671300.

Botswana North-South Carrier Water Project Field Survey
Botswana North-South Carrier Water Project Field Survey: July 2003 1. Project Profile & Japan’s ODA Loan Angola Zambia Botswana Zimbabwe Namibia Maun Francistown Ghanzi Palapye Mamuno Maharapye South Africa Gaborone Tshabong Project location map Mmamashia Water Treatment Works 1.1 Background Botswana is a landlocked country that is situated in the Kalahari Basin on the plains of southern Africa (average altitude: approximately 900 meters); it is bordered by the Republic of South Africa, Zimbabwe, Namibia, and Zambia. Its territory is generally flat and covers an area of 582 thousand square meters or approximately one-and-a-half times the size of Japan. It has a sub-tropical climate, with much of the country being arid or semi-arid. Annual rainfall averages 400mm nationwide, with southwestern regions seeing the least precipitation (250mm) and southeastern areas the most (600mm). Rainfall levels are seasonally affected and unstable. Botswana has few surface water resources in consequence of its topographical and geographical features and sources the majority of its water from groundwater fossil resources. At the time of appraisal, the water supply rate was 100 percent in urban areas centered around the capital, Gaborone, but in view of the fact that demand was growing at exponential rates, large-scale development of underground water was problematic and water resources around the capital had been developed, the country was considering water transmission from other regions. In addition, Gaborone was importing water on a regular basis from South Africa and the country harbored a long-cherished wish to develop independent national water resources. By contrast, the water supply rate in the regions was 50 percent and reliant on groundwater.

The MFS Scholarship Programme offers Swedish university students an opportunity to carry out two months’ field work in a developing country resulting in a graduation thesis work, a Master’s dissertation or a similar in-depth study. These studies are primarily conducted within subject areas that are important from an international development perspective and in a country supported by Swedish international development assistance. The main purpose of the MFS Programme is to enhance Swedish university students’ knowledge and understanding of developing countries and their problems.

AFRICAN WATERBIRD CENSUS COVERAGE Participating Countries, April 1997 - March 1998 COUVERTURE GEOGRAPHIQUE DES DENOMBREMENTS D’OISEAUX D’EAU EN AFRIQUE Pays participants, avril 1997 - mars 1998 Participating countries, April 1997 - March 1998 Pays participants, avril 1997 - mars 1998 1 INTRODUCTION This report This publication comprises results and overviews of wetland surveys and waterbird counts between April 1997 and March 1998, centred around the key months of July 1997 and January 1998. It is the eighth annual African Waterbird Census (AfWC) report and, like previous editions, is presented in both English and French. Copyright has been waived to encourage reproduction of reports and the practical use of data for wetland and waterbird conservation. The report is divided into five sub-regional sections, within which national overviews are followed by tables summarising waterbird data at the sub-regional level and potential Ramsar sites found to meet Ramsar criterion 3(c). A sub-regional summary discussion of the region’s results and other related topics is also presented. The final section provides additional information related to the AfWC, notably updates from the Conventions, Waterbird Specialist Groups and partners, lists of National Coordinators and waterbirds, and a bibliography. This year the report has been produced in Africa for the first time in our West Africa office in Dakar, Senegal. We do sincerely apologise to regular readers for our abnormal delay, which has resulted principally from this phase of relocation and the launch of new African projects, some bringing direct support to the AfWC. Participation and Coverage A record number of 30 countries participated, including Gabon once more and The Congo for the first time.
