    7 . 3 MMM OOI SSS Y S T E M 7 . 3 . 1 GGG REATER MMM POFANA BBB ULK WWW ATER SSS UPPLY Planning No. 105.24 Project No. Project Status Detailed Feasibility (as at January 2011) Project Description Sustained housing development and tourism related activities are increasing the water demand at several nodes along the R103 road between Lions River (uMngeni Local Municipality) and Mooi River (Mpofana Local Municipality). This growth is beginning to stress local water resources and water supply infrastructure in the area. It has been identified that a regional bulk water supply scheme is required to ensure that the area has a reliable water supply that will sustain this growth into the future. The proposed scheme ( Figure 7.4) will obtain raw water from the soon-to-be constructed Spring Grove Dam on the Mooi River for a WTP to be situated adjacent to the dam. From here potable water will be pumped to two command reservoirs. The first reservoir will be located at Bruntville in Mooi River. This reservoir will serve the greater Mooi River area and will have the potential to supply the Muden/Rocky Drift area. The Mooi River WTP and Rosetta WTP can then be decommissioned. A link pipeline to supply the Vaalekop community has also been investigated. The second reservoir will be at Nottingham Road which will then supply Balgowan, Lidgetton and possibly Lions River. There is also a link pipeline to Mount West. The scheme is likely to be built in phases to gradually increase the supply area. The scheme together with all the proposed phases is indicated in Figure 7.5.

    Greater Mpofana Bulk Water Supply Scheme

    GREATER MPOFANA BULK WATER SUPPLY SCHEME IMPLEMENTATION READINESS REPORT OCTOBER 2016 PREPARED BY Umgeni Water Telephone N° : 033 341 1203 Fax N° : 033 341 1218 Email Address : [email protected] P O Box 3235 Pietermaritzburg, 3200 310 Burger Street Pietermaritzburg, 3201 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Context This project involves a potable bulk water supply scheme located in the Midlands area of the KwaZulu-Natal province. It is referred to as the Greater Mpofana Bulk Water Supply Scheme (GMBWSS). The Greater Mpofana Region (described in this report as the area from Mooi River to Lidgetton) does not have a reliable water supply. Much of the area relies on boreholes and run of river abstraction. With increasing demands, the future supply is not considered sustainable. Phase 1 of the project is currently under construction and will provide a sustainable bulk water supply to the towns of Mooiriver, Rosetta and Nottingham Road. Phase 2 of the project is in the final feasibility stage and will provide a sustainable bulk water supply to the towns of Lidgetton and Lions River including the rural hinterland surrounding the abovementioned towns in KwaZulu Natal. The Scheme will provide bulk water supply to large areas within the uMgungundlovu WSA boundary and will include the rural areas of Bruntville, Lidgetton, Lions River and Msinga. The scheme will also supply economic activities in the areas of Mooiriver, Nottingham Road and Rosetta and will reinforce the supply to these towns. This Implementation Readiness Report (IRS) for the GMBWSS is a prerequisite for RBIG funding so that potable water is made available to both the developing and backlog areas of Mooi River and Rosetta in the Mpofana Local Municipality and Nottingham Road, Mount West, Balgowan and Lidgetton in the uMngeni Local Municipality.

    PRESS CONFUSION OVER THE BATTLES OF HLOBANE AND KAMBULA IN THE LONDON AND DEVON NEWSPAPERS By Stephen Manning ________________________________________________________________________________ After the news of the British defeat at Ntombe Drift, the British press became evidently concerned as to the fate of those troops of Pearson’s command besieged in Eshowe and this appears to have resulted in the papers taking, initially, little notice of the news of Wood’s battles with the Zulus around the Hlobane mountains. Despite the fact that news of a British reversal at Hlobane, followed by a defeat for the Zulus at Khambula, was reported as early as 17 April, nearly a week before news of the relief of Eshowe arrived in England, these events were overshadowed in the press by concerns about the relief of the besieged troops. Although the events of the two battles were reported in the daily papers, editorial comment was still restricted to speculation as to the progress of the relief column under Chelmsford. The timing of the receipt of the news of the relief of Eshowe, on Tuesday 22 April, meant that the majority of the weekly newspapers of Devon, produced between Wednesday and Saturday, concentrated on the events of the relief and the battle of Gingindlovu. Indeed, details of the battles of Hlobane and Khambula did not appear in many Devon weekly papers until two weeks, or more, after they were first reported in the London daily papers. By then, of course, the news of the relief of Eshowe, and other British military successes, overshadowed news of a British reversal.

These include the declaration of “Bioregions” and the publication of “Bioregional Plans”. Bioregional plans are usually an output of a systematic spatial conservation assessment of a region. They identify areas of conservation priority, and constraints and opportunities for implementation of the plan. The precursor to a Bioregional Plan is a Biodiversity Sector Plan (BSP), which is the official reference for biodiversity priorities to be taken into account in land-use planning and decision-making by all sectors within the District Municipality. The overall aim is to avoid the loss of natural habitat in Critical Biodiversity Areas (CBAs) and prevent the degradation of Ecological Support Areas (ESAs), while encouraging sustainable development in Other Natural Areas.
