It is a comprehensive technical report that provides detailed information on the organisation’s current infrastructure and on its future infrastructure development plans. This report replaces the last comprehensive Infrastructure Master Plan that was compiled in 2018. The report is divided into seven volumes summarised in Table i and shown schematically in Figure i. Table i Umgeni Water Infrastructure Master Plan 2019/2020 volumes. Focus Area Purpose Volume 1 describes the most recent changes and trends within the primary environmental dictates that influence Umgeni Water’s infrastructure development plans (Section 2). Section 3 provides a review of historic water sales against past projections, as well as Umgeni Water’s most recent water demand projections, compiled at the end of 2017. Section 4 describes Water Demand Management initiatives that are being undertaken by the utility and Section 5 contains a high level review of the energy consumption used to produce the water volumes analysed in Section 3. Section 6 focuses on research into the impacts of climate change and alternative supply options including waste water reuse and desalination. Section 7 provides an overview of the water resource regions and systems supplied within these regions in Umgeni Water’s operational area. Volume 2 describes the current water resource situation and the water supply infrastructure in the Mgeni System (Section 8; shown in orange in the adjacent figure). Included is the status quo with regards supply to the area as well as recommendations on the development of infrastructure to meet future needs. i Focus Area Purpose Volume 3 summarises the uMkhomazi System (Section 9; illustrated in purple in the adjacent figure) current water resource situation and water supply infrastructure, the status quo on supply to the area and provides recommendations on the development of infrastructure to meet future needs. Volume 4 reports on the South Coast System (Section 10; shown in red in the adjacent figure) with regards to the current water resource situation and water supply infrastructure, the status quo on supply to the area and provides recommendations on the development of infrastructure meet future needs. ii Focus Area Purpose Volume 5 provides a description of the North Coast System (Section 11; illustrated in green in the adjacent figure) water resource situation and water supply infrastructure, the status quo on supply to the area and recommendations on the development of infrastructure meet future needs. Volume 6 summarises the Upper uThukela System (Section 12; illustrated in pink in the adjacent figure) the current water resource situation and water supply infrastructure, the status quo on supply to the area and provides recommendations on the development of infrastructure to meet future needs. iii Focus Area Purpose Volume 7 describes the wastewater works currently operated by Umgeni Water (shown in pale brown in the adjacent figure) and provides plans for development of additional waste water treatment facilities. iv Figure i Umgeni Water Infrastructure Master Plan 2019/2020 report structure. v It is important to note that information presented in this report is in a summarised form and it is recommended that the reader refer to the relevant planning reports if more detail is sought. Since the primary focus of this Infrastructure Master Plan is on Umgeni Water’s existing bulk infrastructure supply network, the water resource infrastructure development plans are not discussed at length. The Department of Water and Sanitation (DWS), as the responsible authority, has undertaken the regional water resource development investigations within Umgeni Water’s area of operation. All of these investigations have been conducted in close collaboration with Umgeni Water and other major stakeholders in order to ensure that integrated planning occurs. Details on these projects can be obtained directly from DWS, Directorate: Options Analysis (East). The Infrastructure Master Plan is a dynamic and evolving document. Outputs from current planning studies, and comments received on this document will therefore be taken into account in the preparation of the next update. vi TABLE OF CONTENTS Preface ................................................................................................................................................... i Table of Contents ................................................................................................................................ vii List of Figures ..................................................................................................................................... viii List of Tables ......................................................................................................................................... x List of Acronyms ................................................................................................................................... xi List of Units ........................................................................................................................................ xiv 10.

    Safrica Page 1 of 42 Recent Reports Support HRW About HRW Site Map May 1995 Vol. 7, No.3 SOUTH AFRICA THREATS TO A NEW DEMOCRACY Continuing Violence in KwaZulu-Natal INTRODUCTION For the last decade South Africa's KwaZulu-Natal region has been troubled by political violence. This conflict escalated during the four years of negotiations for a transition to democratic rule, and reached the status of a virtual civil war in the last months before the national elections of April 1994, significantly disrupting the election process. Although the first year of democratic government in South Africa has led to a decrease in the monthly death toll, the figures remain high enough to threaten the process of national reconstruction. In particular, violence may prevent the establishment of democratic local government structures in KwaZulu-Natal following further elections scheduled to be held on November 1, 1995. The basis of this violence remains the conflict between the African National Congress (ANC), now the leading party in the Government of National Unity, and the Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP), the majority party within the new region of KwaZulu-Natal that replaced the former white province of Natal and the black homeland of KwaZulu. Although the IFP abandoned a boycott of the negotiations process and election campaign in order to participate in the April 1994 poll, following last minute concessions to its position, neither this decision nor the election itself finally resolved the points at issue. While the ANC has argued during the year since the election that the final constitutional arrangements for South Africa should include a relatively centralized government and the introduction of elected government structures at all levels, the IFP has maintained instead that South Africa's regions should form a federal system, and that the colonial tribal government structures should remain in place in the former homelands.

  • Interview a Trip to See the Prince of Wales
    Interview A trip to see the Prince of Wales (S.1'. Bizley, with the help ofher sister N. W. Ormond, and with a postscript recorded in Eshowe. All as told to W.H. Bizley.) Remembering back seventy years, to the sensations and curiosities of a seven-year-old, is a rather different thing from keeping a diary in the style of' Mar), Moore. The following is an account of a somewhat composite journey, which, almost by challce, caught 'Prillcy' on his one-day visit to Eshowe. What a different world had come about in the 33 years since Mary Moore '.I journey. The Anglo-Boer War and the First World War had come and gone. In the Ullion of'South Af'rica, the last post-cart service ran, says Brian Godbold, in Mountains, Bullets and Blessings, (p. 74) - in 1921, from Izingolweni in Natal via Bizana and Lusikisiki, to Port St Johns. In 1923 Smuts was ousted, and the Nationalist-Labour 'pact' government came in. My mother, a married woman teacher, found herself out of a job. Our family set-up was such that she had to take temporary posts wherever she could find them. So we took up residence in Umzinto in 1924. The atmosphere was like the Southern United States - a bell rang at 3 a.m. to rouse up the labour and start the day on the Reynolds Brothers' Sugar Estate. I was seven at the time. Mr Leisegang - brother of a Norwegian mission­ ary, and the owner now of the general store, the butchery and the bakery in Umzinto - told my mother that, at the end of the year, a post would become available at the Teachers' Training College of the Umpumulo Mission, run by the Lutheran mission Society.

Guastella^ Severe coastal erosion occurred along the KwaZulu-Natal coastline between mid-May and November 2011. Andrew A. Mather^ Analysis of this erosion event and comparison with previous coastal erosion events in 2006/2007 offered the Simon C. Bundy" opportunity to extend the understanding of the time and place of coastal erosion strikes. The swells that drove Ivan D. Haigh* the erosion hotspots of the 2011 erosion season were relatively low (significant wave heights were between AFFILIATIONS: 2 m and 4.5 m) but ot long duration. Although swell height was important, swell-propagation direction and 'School of Geological Sciences, particularly swell duration played a dominant role in driving the 2011 erosion event. Two erosion hotspot types University of KwaZulu-Natal, were noted: sandy beaches underlain by shallow bedrock and thick sandy beaches. The former are triggered Durban, South Africa by high swells (as in March 2007) and austral winter erosion events (such as in 2006, 2007 and 2011). ^Oceanography Department, University of Cape Town, Cape The latter become evident later in the austral winter erosion cycle. Both types were associated with subtidal Town, South Africa shore-normal channels seaward of megacusps, themselves linked to megarip current heads. This 2011 ^Ethekwini Municipality, Durban, coastal erosion event occurred during a year in which the lunar perigee sub-harmonic cycle (a ±4.4-year South Africa cycle) peaked, a pattern which appears to have recurred on the KwaZulu-Natal coast.
