It is therefore incumbent upon us to display extraordinary efforts to secure a greater economic and social balance amongst our citizens. In order to achieve this, it cannot be business as usual. We have to be bold in the goals we set and steps we take. We have to be innovative. In line with these huge challenges our vision for the Greater Stellenbosch is: x To be the Innovation Capital of South Africa – nothing less. The technological and academic innovation and business acumen have been a hall mark over the years. What we need to add as an important driving force, is social innovation - creating momentum for the social and socio-economic needs of the thousands of impoverished, jobless and homeless citizens in our valley. The IDP as a management tool of local government is the instrument of our delivery plan. It is a delivery process that should at all times involve a high level of public participation- and this is precisely what we’ve been doing through public meetings and other means. Our services are captured in the five strategic objectives of our municipality: 1. Striving to make Stellenbosch the preferred destination for investment and entrepreneurship translate into jobs and prosperity. 2. Establishing the greenest municipality which will not only make Stellenbosch attractive for visitors and tourists, but will also provide a desirable environment for new industries and create “green” jobs. 3. Ensuring a dignified living for all Stellenbosch citizens, providing – acceptable living conditions, sanitation and clean drinking water. 4. Creating a safer StellenboschDRAFT valley, where civic pride and responsibility will replace crime and destructive behaviour. 5. Entrenching good governance, which implies compliance with and adherence to mandatory policies and procedures. This is the hall mark of a well-run municipality. Striving to make some of these bold goals, we will try and achieve these on our own. For others we will have to depend on willing partners. We will set spectacular goals, even at the risk of failing spectacularly! This is the nature of the challenges we face and we have to rise to the occasion to deliver against all odds! Conrad Sidego Executive Mayor 7 OVERVIEW BY THE MUNICIPAL MANAGER Integrated development planning (IDP) is critical for sustainable development within municipalities. The IDP process is designed to be consultative and inclusive so that the diverse needs of the whole community, as well as various sectors are considered. In compiling the IDP, municipalities have to confront difficult choices on issues such as the delivery of basic services to everyone while providing a safe, enabling environment which is dignified with many economic development opportunities. IDPs, however, are intended not only to inform the political and administrative leadership, but also to guide the activities of the non-governmental organisations, the private sector and other spheres of government within the municipal area. The economic environment in the district, province, country and the world should also be considered. There is much to be proud of since the formation of a unitary Stellenbosch Municipality some ten years ago – bringing together previously separate administrations. Yet, serious shortcomings in policy and standards development exist - challenges which, if not addressed, threaten the sustainability of the municipality. The major challenge of the high percentage of our residents who are without jobs, need a focused intervention which the IDP must also address.

  • 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.

  • Large Scale Quantification of Aquifer Storage and Volumes from the Peninsula and Skurweberg Formations in the Southwestern Cape
    Large scale quantification of aquifer storage and volumes from the Peninsula and Skurweberg Formations in the southwestern Cape Dylan Blake*, Andiswa Mlisa and Chris Hartnady Umvoto Africa (Pty) Ltd,PO Box 61, Muizenberg, 7950, Western Cape, South Africa Abstract The Western Cape Province of South Africa is a relatively water-scarce area as a result of the Mediterranean climate experienced. Due to the increased usage of groundwater, and the requirement to know how much water is available for use, it is imperative as a 1st step to establish an initial estimate of groundwater in storage. The storage capacity, namely, the total available storage of the different aquifers, and the storage yield of the fractured quartzitic Peninsula and Skurweberg Formation aquifers of the Table Mountain Group (TMG), are calculated with a spreadsheet and Geographic Information System (GIS) model. This model is based on the aquifer geometry and estimated values (based on measured data) for porosity and specific storage (calculated using the classic Jacob relation). The aquifer geometry is calculated from 1:50 000 and 1:250 000 geological contacts, faults and major fractures, with dips and aquifer formation thickness calculated through structural geology 1st principles using a Digital Elevation Model (DEM). Balanced geological cross-sections constructed through the model areas provide an important check for the aquifer top and bottom surface depth values produced by the GIS model. The storage modelling undertaken here forms part of the City of Cape Town TMG Aquifer Feasibility Study and Pilot Project, with modelling focusing on the 3 main groundwater target areas at Theewaterskloof (Nuweberg), Wemmershoek and Kogelberg-Steenbras.

  • Who Lived in the Stellenbosch Winelands Before 1652?
    WHO LIVED IN THE STELLENBOSCH WINELANDS BEFORE 1652? This short essay describes what is currently known about the archaeology and history of the Stone Age people who lived in the vicinity of Stellenbosch and adjacent Winelands in the Western Cape before European colonisation. When and where did the human story begin? There is abundant archaeological evidence from stone tools, and a few human remains, that Stone Age hunter-gatherer people lived in the Western Cape for about a million years. As yet, there is no evidence in this region for the earliest stone tools and fossil hominin remains that date to between 1 and at least 3 million years ago in the Cradle of Humankind in Gauteng, Limpopo and North-West provinces. It is not clear whether this is a result of a limited ecological range in which the early hominins lived, or of the absence of suitable geological formations for the preservation of bone. What do we mean by the Stone Age? The Stone Age was the time when most of the tools that hunter-gatherer people used were made by striking one stone against another – a hammerstone against a core – so that sharp edges were created on the sides of the core and on the flakes that were detached. Many fine-grained rocks will produce flakes with edges that are sharper than a metal knife, but stone becomes blunt much more quickly than metal. Archaeologists focus on stone tools as the primary source of evidence for the presence of people in the landscape in the past because the tools are almost indestructible and therefore are often all that is left behind after bones, wood, plant remains and shells have disintegrated.

Peter Goldblatt B.A. Krukoff Curator of African Botany, Missouri Botanical Garden, P.O. Box 299, St. Louis, Missouri 63166, U.S.A. and John C. Manning National Botanical Institute, Kirstenbosch, Private Bag X7, Claremont, 7735 Republic of South Africa Received 4 December 1991; revised 21 May 1992 Circumscription of Lapeirousia corymbosa, type species of subgenus Paniculata section Fastigiata, previously regarded as comprising three subspecies, is restricted to plants with small blue (or white) flowers with symmetrical white' markings, and usually symmetrically disposed stamens. Subsp. fastigiata is elevated to species rank as L. fastigiata, and comprises plants with large yellow, actinomorphic flowers. Lapeirousia azurea, until now included in subsp. fastigiata, is treated as a separate species for plants with large dark blue, zygomorphic, and typically resupinate flowers. Field studies indicate that L. corymbosa subsp. alta is a distinct species, here described as L. neglecta. Floral morphology differs consistently in each species, as do aspects of leaf, capsule and seed morphology. Comparison of seeds in the two sections of subgenus Paniculata shows that species of section Fastigiata are derived in their smaller, reticulate (to rugose), ovoid seeds with a large funicular appendage. Seeds of section Paniculata accord closely with those of the presumed outgroup, Savannosiphon: they are comparatively large, smooth to rugulose and have a small appendage. Lapeirousia neglecta has seeds and chromosome morphology characteristic of section Paniculata, and it is now assigned to that section. The addition of L.

    Impacts of alien plant invasions on water resources and yields from the Western Cape Water Supply System (WCWSS) David Le Maitre1,2*, André Görgens3, Gerald Howard3 and Nick Walker3,4,5 1Natural Resources and the Environment, CSIR, Stellenbosch 2Centre for Invasion Biology, Department of Botany and Zoology, Stellenbosch University, South Africa 3Aurecon South Africa (Pty) Ltd, Cape Town, South Africa 4ERM, One Castle Park, Tower Hill, Bristol, United Kingdom 5Institute of Water Studies, University of the Western Cape, Bellville, South Africa ABSTRACT A key motivation for managing invasive alien plant (IAP) species is their impacts on streamflows, which, for the wetter half of South Africa, are about 970 m3∙ha−1∙a−1 or 1 444 mill. m3∙a−1 (2.9% of naturalised mean annual runoff), comparable to forest plantations. However, the implications of these reductions for the reliability of yields from large water supply systems are less well known. The impacts on yields from the WCWSS were modelled under three invasion scenarios: ‘Baseline’ invasions; increased invasions by 2045 under ‘No management’; and under ‘Effective control’ (i.e. minimal invasions). Monthly streamflow reductions (SFRs) by invasions were simulated using the Pitman rainfall−runoff catchment model, with taxon- specific mean annual and low-flow SFR factors for dryland (upland) invasions and crop factors for riparian invasions. These streamflow reduction sequences were input into the WCWSS yield model and the model was run in stochastic mode for the three scenarios. The 98% assured total system yields were predicted to be ±580 million m3∙a−1 under ‘Effective control’, compared with ±542 million m3∙a−1 under ‘Baseline’ invasions and ±450 mill.
