  • 7. Water Quality
    Western Cape IWRM Action Plan: Status Quo Report Final Draft 7. WATER QUALITY 7.1 INTRODUCTION 7.1.1 What is water quality? “Water quality” is a term used to express the suitability of water to sustain various uses, such as agricultural, domestic, recreational, and industrial, or aquatic ecosystem processes. A particular use or process will have certain requirements for the physical, chemical, or biological characteristics of water; for example limits on the concentrations of toxic substances for drinking water use, or restrictions on temperature and pH ranges for water supporting invertebrate communities. Consequently, water quality can be defined by a range of variables which limit water use by comparing the physical and chemical characteristics of a water sample with water quality guidelines or standards. Although many uses have some common requirements for certain variables, each use will have its own demands and influences on water quality. Water quality is neither a static condition of a system, nor can it be defined by the measurement of only one parameter. Rather, it is variable in both time and space and requires routine monitoring to detect spatial patterns and changes over time. The composition of surface and groundwater is dependent on natural factors (geological, topographical, meteorological, hydrological, and biological) in the drainage basin and varies with seasonal differences in runoff volumes, weather conditions, and water levels. Large natural variations in water quality may, therefore, be observed even where only a single water resource is involved. Human intervention also has significant effects on water quality. Some of these effects are the result of hydrological changes, such as the building of dams, draining of wetlands, and diversion of flow.

  • Palmiet Prionium Serratum, a Cape River Plant
    River plant Palmiet Prionium serratum, a Cape river plant by Charlie Boucher and Melanie Withers, Botany Department, University of 5tellenbosch LEFT: During a fire, the thicker stems of Prionium serratum are not killed and recover rapidly, and side shoots develop prolifically after the plants are burnt. Sparrrnan's early description of this plant is very apt: 'a kind of acorus with a .. thick stem and broad leaves, which grow out from the top, as they do in a palm­ tree, a circumstance from which the plant takes its name.' (Acorus calamus is a . .- • .... reed-like Asian plant introduced into Europe as an herbal remedy.) Prionium ser­ ratum was so striking to the early European settlers at the Cape that even Van .- Riebeeck made reference to it, giving it the common name 'wilde palmit' for the first •• .. time in the literature. One of the larger rivers in the Western Cape, the Palmiet River, which flows through the Elgin Basin, is named after this plant that grows in abundance in it. More recently the status of this plant has been raised as taxonomists have removed it from the Juncaceae (rush family) to a family of its own with only one .. species in it, aptly called the Prioniaceae. This robust shrub (or is it a herb or a short tree?) has stems growing up to 2 m tall. The 'stems' are actually branching, aerial woody rhizomes (as in an iris' root­ stock). The remains of old leaves enclose the stems and serve to protect the plants from damage during floods when boulders and stones move down the rivers and ..--.

  • The Profile of Disability Grant Applicants in Bishop Lavis, Cape Town
    Original Research: The profile of disability grant applicants in Bishop Lavis, Cape Town The profile of disability grant applicants in Bishop Lavis, Cape Town a Govender T, MBChB, MFamMed b Mji G, HED, BSc, MSc a Family physician, Private practice and former postgraduate student, Stellenbosch University, Division of Family Medicine b Centre for Rehabilitation Studies, Stellenbosch University Correspondence to: Dr T Govender, e-mail: [email protected] Keywords: disability grant applications; adults profile; Bishop Lavis; ICF Abstract Background: Disability grants in South Africa increased from 600 000 in 2000 to almost 1.3 million in 2004. This rise can be attributed to the HIV/ AIDS epidemic, South Africa’s high rate of unemployment and possibly an increased awareness of constitutional rights. The Western Cape, which has a disability prevalence of 3.8%, has also experienced an influx of applications. The study was conducted at Bishop Lavis Community Health Centre (BLCHC) in the Cape Town Metropole, Western Cape. The primary aim of this study was to establish the profile of adults applying for disability grants at Bishop Lavis. The secondary aim was the determination of the degree of activity limitation and participation restriction by means of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) shortlist of activity and participation domains. Methods: A descriptive study was conducted with emphasis on identifying and quantifying the relevant factors. The population studied included all prospective adult (18–59-year-old females and 18–64-year-old males) disability grant applicants in Bishop Lavis over a two-month period (April–May 2007). A structured, self-compiled questionnaire was administered during face-to-face interviews with applicants.

  • Fireworks, Yet Every Year, Countless Animals (And Humans) Are Left Injured and Traumatised by These So-Called “Festive Pleasures”
    Before you light that firecracker Every year, like clockwork, the SPCA movement campaigns against the use of fireworks, yet every year, countless animals (and humans) are left injured and traumatised by these so-called “festive pleasures”. The fireworks season is just around the corner, with the Hindu Festival of Lights, Diwali, on 23 October, Guy Fawkes on 5 November and New Years’ Eve ending the year on 31 December. So before you light that firecracker, please remember the dangers that fireworks pose to animals and humans alike – and respect the parameters set in place by our City’s law enforcement. It’s not difficult to imagine the pain. If a dog can hear a grasshopper eating – how much louder is it then for a dog to hear the incredible crack and bang of fireworks, blasting off in the neighbourhood, or worse his/her own home – one after another. The trauma is enough to send any pet running for safety. And this is exactly the behaviour that ends tragically for thousands of animals each year. “The SPCA is opposed to the use of any fireworks which emit a loud noise, due to the trauma and injuries they cause animals. Because animals are able to hear a wider range of sounds than humans can, the sound from fireworks is at least seven times louder to them and therefore their natural response would be to try and escape the sound with sometimes tragic consequences” , said CoGH SPCA Inspectorate Manager Moyo Ndukwana. The Animals Protection Act clearly states that “it is illegal for any person to terrify any animal” yet thousands of animals end up at the CoGH SPCA every year, lost and abandoned, disorientated and sometimes severely injured.

The examination will be conducted in English. Abstract Monaco, S. 2008. Neighbourhood Politics in Transition. Residents’ Associations and Local Government in Post-Apartheid Cape Town. Acta Universitatis Upsaliensis. Skrifter utgivna av Statsvetenskapliga föreningen i Uppsala 168. 223 pp. Uppsala. ISBN 978-91-554-7084-5. This study focuses on the changing practices of South African residents’ associations and their relationship with political parties and local government from 1990 to 2006, with the aim to examine how associations in Cape Town respond when they are confronted with a new democratic institutional and political context. Two empirical questions guide the analysis: How do residents’ associations perceive that the changing political context has affected them in their attempts to influence agenda-setting and decision-making? And how can we understand the process in which they decide to act, or not act, in response to important changes in their political environment? Drawing on social movement theory, most importantly the notions of political opportunity structures and framing processes, an analysis is made of the most significant changes in Cape Town’s post-apartheid institutional and political context. The empirical findings – based on questionnaires, interviews and an in-depth study of the township of Imizamo Yethu in Hout Bay – show that associations in socio-economically distinct areas have different perceptions of their prospects of affecting agenda-setting and decision-making.
