  • A Situation Analysis of Water Quality in the Catchment of the Buffalo River, Eastern Cape, with Special Emphasis on the Impacts
    A SITUATION ANALYSIS OF WATER QUALITY IN THE CATCHMENT OF THE BUFFALO RIVER, EASTERN CAPE, WITH SPECIAL EMPHASIS ON THE IMPACTS OF LOW COST, HIGH-DENSITY URBAN DEVELOPMENT ON WATER QUALITY VOLUME 2 (APPENDICES) FINAL REPORT to the Water Research Commission by Mrs C.E. van Ginkel Dr J. O'Keeffe Prof D.A.Hughes Dr J.R. Herald Institute Tor Water Research, Rhodes University and Dr P.J. Ashton Environmentek, CSIR WRC REPORT NO. 40S/2/96 ISBN NO. 1 86845 287 5 ISBN SET NO. 1 86845 288 3 Water Research. Commission Buffalo River Project EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1. Introduction and aims of the project The Buffalo River provides water and a conduit for effluent disposal in one of the most populous areas on the East coast of southern Africa. The catchment supports a rapidly-growing population of 311 000 people, in which King William's Town, Zwelitsha, Mdantsane and East London are the mam towns, and they are all supplied with water from the river. The management of the river is complicated by the political division of the catchment between Ciskei and South Africa (figure 1.1), but a joint agreement makes provision for the formation of a Permanent Water Commission for coordinating the management of the river's resources. The river rises in the Amatole Mountains and flows South-East for 125 km to the sea at East London (figure 1.1). It can be divided into three reaches: The upper reaches to King William's Town, comprising the mountain stream in montane forest down to Maden Dam, and the foothill zone flowing through agricultural land downstream of Rooikrans Dam; the middle reaches, comprising the urban/industrial complex of King William's Town/Zwelitsha to Laing Dam, and an area of agricultural land downstream of Laing; and the lower reaches downstream of Bridle Drift Dam, comprising coastal forest and the estuary, which forms East London's harbour.

  • An Overview Translation History South Africa 1652–1860
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Wits Institutional Repository on DSPACE An Overview of Translation History in South Africa 1652–1860 By Birgitt Olsen A research report submitted to the Faculty of the Arts, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts: Translation Adelaide, South Australia, 2008 i Abstract This research report comprises an outline of South African translation history in the years 1652 – 1860. The report is divided into three chapters, covering scriptural and secular translation history across two time periods, namely 1652-1750 (scriptural and secular), 1750-1860 (scriptural) and 1750-1860 (secular). A catalogue of translations done in these time periods is also included. The research methodology is based on hermeneutical principles, and therefore seeks to interpret and represent historical material in a way that makes it relevant for contemporary circumstances, always focusing on the individuals involved in events as well as taking into account the subjectivity of the researcher. In conclusion, but also as a part of the overall rationale for performing the research, the report discusses the immediate importance to modern society of understanding the historical linguistic dynamics between cultures, as represented in translation activity. ii Declaration I declare that this research report is my own unaided work. It is submitted for the degree of Master of Arts: Translation, in the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg. It has not been submitted before for any other degree or examination in any other university. ________________________________ Birgitt Olsen 20th day of November, 2008 iii Acknowledgements My sincere and warm thanks go to my supervisor, Dr Elizabeth Meintjes, for her perspicacious, patient and humorous assistance in the years it to me took complete this research report.
