Communal Land Tenure in Ebenhaeser, South Africa, 2012 – 2017
PUTTING JUSTICE INTO PRACTICE: COMMUNAL LAND TENURE IN EBENHAESER, SOUTH AFRICA, 2012 – 2017 SYNOPSIS Following the 1994 transition from racial apartheid to democracy, South Africa’s government aimed to provide tenure security for the estimated 16 million black South Africans living in communal areas. But the lack of a clear legal framework applicable to most communal areas meant that progress was slow. In contrast, a viable legal framework did exist to guide tenure reform in smaller communal areas formerly known as “coloured reserves,” where a series of apartheid laws had settled people of mixed race. In 2009, land reform Minister Gugile Nkwiti designated one such area—Ebenhaeser, on the country’s west coast—as a rural “flagship” project. The aim was both to transfer land held in trust by the government to Ebenhaeser community members and to settle a restitution claim. Provincial officials from Nkwinti’s ministry, working with private consultants, organized a communal association to serve as landowner. They helped negotiate an agreement with white farmers to return land that had originally belonged to coloured residents. The community also developed a land administration plan that would pave the way for Ebenhaeser’s residents to become the legal owners of their communal territory. Leon Schreiber drafted this case study based on interviews conducted in the Western Cape, Gauteng, and Eastern Cape provinces of South Africa, in March 2017. Case published May 2017. INTRODUCTION At a 2009 press conference, Gugile Nkwinti, Jacob Zuma, who had -

Options for Meeting the Ecological Reserve for a Raised Clanwilliam Dam
Options for meeting the ecological Reserve for a raised Clanwilliam Dam CA Brown1*, E van der Berg2, A Sparks2 and RN Magoba1 1Southern Waters Ecological Research and Consulting cc, Freshwater Research Unit, University of Cape Town, Private Bag Rondebosch, 7700, South Africa 2Aurecon (Pty) Ltd, PO Box 1347, Cape Town, 8000, South Africa Abstract A recent evaluation of the potential raising of Clanwilliam Dam included an assessment of whether the operation of the dam would meet the flow quality and quantity requirements for the protection of the downstream river and its estuary, taking Olifants/Doring River basin-level considerations into account. The implications of meeting the ecological Reserve of the Olifants River downstream of Clanwilliam Dam to Bulshoek Weir, downstream of Bulshoek Weir to the confluence with the Doring River, and at the estuary, were assessed in terms of the impact on system yield. Some adjustments were made to the ecological Reserve to maximise the yield from a raised Clanwilliam Dam, in return for protection of the vitally important Doring River. Irrigation releases from Clanwilliam Dam were also restructured so that they met the ecological Reserve requirement for small floods of short duration to promote spawning in Clanwilliam yellowfish Labeobarbus( capensis). The assessments presented demonstrate that small adjust- ments in the requirements that form the ecological Reserve can greatly enhance the possibility, and reduce the costs, of successful implementation.
