These municipalities fall within the Sedibeng District Municipality (Sedibeng), a large district extending along the southern region of Gauteng Province between the adjacent provinces of Mpumalanga and North West. The Vaal River forms the southern boundary of Sedibeng, and also serves as the boundary with the Free State Province. Emfuleni covers an area of just under 990 square kilometres with its main economic and commercial nodes being Vanderbijlpark and Vereeniging. Vanderbijlpark was originally established to house the workers of the Mittal (previously ISCOR) steel company. Evaton, Sharpville and Sebokeng are predominantly residential areas within Emfuleni and also linked to the Mittal steel factory. Midvaal on the other hand, is the largest municipality (by area) in Gauteng Province - covering an area of 2000 square kilometres. Urban areas are located in the towns of Meyerton and Vaal Marina, which are developed around a Central Business District. Residential densities decline from the Central Business District outwards with low- income residential areas being situated on the outer edges of the towns. Lesser-urbanised towns are also found at De-deur, Daleside, Walkerville, Henley on Klip, Riversdale, Risiville, Ohenimuri, Klipwater, Kliprivier, Highbury, Riversdale and Rothdene. Appendix A illustrates a map of the study area. 1.2 Scope of the Study This sewer flow estimation study is a component of the overall larger project entitled “Sedibeng Regional Sanitation Scheme” jointly undertaken by Sedibeng, Emfuleni and Midvaal Municipalities, and implemented by Arcus GIBB and its partners. Current and Future Sewer Flows 1 Rev 01 The primary goal of the overall project is to eliminate polluted discharges into the Vaal Barrage and its catchments. It was generally accepted that a 2 phased approach is required to address the problem of discharges, as follows: PHASE 1 – dubbed short term, was to rectify the most serious shortcomings at the pump stations and at the Rietspruit and Leeukuil works. PHASE 2 – the long-term solution, concentrates on reducing the number of pumpstations to a bare minimum and also rationalising the treatment aspect. The project by Arcus GIBB is geared to Phase 2 – ie. to enable the Sedibeng Regional WWTW to become operational as soon as possible in order to limit non- compliant effluent discharges into the Vaal Barrage. The objective of the project is to carry out a feasibility study into the site selection, and design parameters to construct a Regional WWTW, which will cater for the future requirements of the entire Region up to year 2025. The envisaged benefits of a Regional sanitation scheme will be: Elimination of problematic sewage pump stations as much as possible Scale of economics with regard to the proposed Regional WWTW Improved effluent quality – and hence reduced environmental pollution Reduced operational and maintenance costs Growth and development of the Region –job creation, skills development, and SMME development The objective of this “flows” estimation study is to predict the current and future wastewater generation and hence treatment requirements up to year 2025. This information will inform the site selection and conceptual design components of the Regional WWTW and outfall sewer route selection. In estimating the future wastewater generation this study factors in, amongst other information, the available population figures, census results, growth forecasts, planning information from the spatial development frameworks, water services development plans, information from Housing departments integrated development plans. Current and Future Sewer Flows 2 Rev 01 The above information guided the study team as to where future residential and other developments were likely to take place in the Region. This will have a direct impact on the future demand for wastewater treatment services. Finally, the current and future wastewater flows from areas outside the study area, which contributes to the Sedibeng Region (such as Johannesburg), were analysed. 1.3 Overview of the Existing Wastewater Treatment in the Region The Sedibeng Region is currently being serviced by six sewage WWTW - with three works located in Emfuleni and Midvaal respectively. The diagram in Appendix B points out the geographic location of the treatment works as well as the catchment areas associated with each treatment works. Table 1.1below summarises the design, location and feeder catchments of the six existing treatment works. Table 1.1 Overview of Treatment Works in the Study Area Name of Treatment Treatment Municipality Catchment Comments Works Capacity Areas Evaton, 100Ml/day Sebokeng 100Ml/day Emfuleni Sebokeng, South BNR of Johannesburg, 11Ml/day Rietspruit 25Ml/day Emfuleni Vanderbijlpark, BNR Vereeniging, 20Ml/day Leeukuil 35Ml/day Emfuleni Sharpville, Three BNR Rivers Meyerton, Henley Meyerton 8Ml/day Midvaal 8Ml/day BNR on Klip Package Ohinimuri 1Ml/day Midvaal Ohinimuri Plant Package Vaal Marina 1Ml/day Midvaal Vaal Marina Plant Current and Future Sewer Flows 3 Rev 01 Discussions with Municipal officials indicate a preference for Ohinimuri WWTW to be closed. Also, as per the Client’s instruction, the Vaal Marina WWTW is not analysed in the scope of this study. Hence the Sedibeng region has a total sewage treatment capacity of 168Ml/day (combined Biological Nutrient Removal (BNR) plus Trickling Filters). It is generally accepted that BNR treatment plants are required to meet the DWAF discharge standards. The combined BNR treatment capacity of Sedibeng is 139Ml/day (and 39Ml/day if one excludes Sebokeng). The Sebokeng WWTW is able to meet the DWAF effluent discharge standards. It is also important to note that the Sebokeng WWTW has part of its catchments located across the Emfuleni borders, notably south of Johannesburg and parts of Midvaal. Leeukuil WWTW also receives part of its inflow sewer from Risiville, Duncanville Extension 3, Mackay and Uitgvilt which are areas in Midvaal. Meyerton WWTW receives sewer from Rustervaal and Roshnee, which are areas located in Emfuleni. These inter-municipality flows of sewer are supported by inter- municipality agreements entered into by the respective municipalities. As illustrated in the diagram in Appendix B the area to the west of the N1 in Emfuleni receives no wastewater services. This is because the area is predominantly farmland. Similarly the diagram also illustrates that the majority of Midvaal receives no wastewater

  • Sedibeng District Municipality Annual Report 2005-2006
    Sedibeng District Municipality Annual Report 2005-2006 Chapter 1 1.1 Foreword - Executive Mayor 1.2 Foreword - Municipal Manager Municipal elections were held in March 2006 during the year under review. Mayor Hlongwane was re-elected and there were certain changes in the political leadership. The elections led thereto that the mandate for the new term of office had to be attended to and included in the Integrated Development Plan to deliver on the mandate of the ruling party until 2014. The year under review was also characterized by significant institutional challenges, as the Municipal Manager and Chief Financial Officer were suspended in September 2005 and a significant number of senior managers were acting. Notwithstanding the abovementioned problems, the people acting as Executive Managers did everything within their powers to render an effective and efficient service to Sedibeng District Municipality’s stakeholders as can be seen from the reports that follow. The 2004/5 Annual Report, IDP and budgets were considered and approved timeously. Service delivery continued in respect of health care, emergency medical services, vehicle registration and licensing, disaster management, tourism promotion, local economic development, management of fresh produce market, management of heritage facilities Some of the highlights of the year included: Installation of CCTV cameras in Vereeniging CBD and Sebokeng; Hosting of agricultural summit in December 2005; Development of permanent Sharpeville Exhibition; Rollout of Novell software to improve Information Technology Services; and. Actions to resolve critical problems of air and water pollution through an intergovernmental action committee. We were privileged on 16th October 2005 to host the President at a Presidential Imbizo.

  • Regional Spatial Development Framework
    CHAPTER 03: REGIONAL SPATIAL DEVELOPMENT FRAMEWORK Introduction: The Spatial Development Framework (SDF) is a key legislative mechanism that seeks to address the numerous developmental challenges of the District. A number of these challenges considered and interpreted by the SDF include: • Integrating the urban spatial form municipality created under apartheid to separate townships from economic areas; • Addressing the services backlogs for the poorest of the poor and the market-related residential development property boom; • Providing an effective and affordable district-wide public transportation network that takes into account the reliance of the low-income communities on public transport (at a greater relative monthly cost) and conversely, the dependence of middle income communities on private modes; • Balancing and facilitating market and public sector development in an effective and co-ordinated manner; optimising the use of existing resources; • Determining and communicating reasonable and effective development policies and strategies; • Investing in infrastructure in a cost-effective and proactive fashion whilst ensuring that historical backlogs are addressed. The purpose of the SDF is not to infringe upon land rights but to guide future land uses. No proposals in this plan creates any land use right or exempt anyone from his or her obligation in terms of any other act controlling land uses. The maps should be used as a schematic representation of the desired spatial form to be achieved by the in the long term. The Gauteng Spatial

    CRIME MAPPING AND SPATIAL ANALYSIS IN GAUTENG By Ndlovu Petronella A research report submitted to the Faculty of Science, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science. Supervisors: Dr Stefania Merlo and Mr Sulaiman Salau March 2020 DECLARATION I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the sole author thereof. Further, I have acknowledged all sources used and have cited these in the reference section. It is submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Science in Geographical Information Systems (GIS) and Remote Sensing (in the field of Geography, Archaeology Environmental Studies) in the University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg. It has not been submitted before for any degree or examination in any other university. 10/09/2020 PNdlovu ……………………….. ………………………………………. Date Petronella Ndlovu i ABSTRACT The study investigated the spatial distribution of five types of crimes (namely contact crimes, contact-related crimes, other serious crimes, property-related crimes and crime detected as a result of police action) in Gauteng using the traditional measure “crime count” and the five alternative measures of crimes namely: location quotient, Theil index, Herfindahl-Hirschman index, Specialisation index and Entropy index. The study found that the five types of crimes are differently distributed in the province. The five types of crimes tend to cluster in certain parts of the province. The contact crime cluster in the City of Johannesburg and the City of Tshwane municipality. The contact related crimes and property related crimes cluster in the City of Johannesburg and the West Rand District.

Even the clapping, while a beauty contest for Walkerville's young fairer sex organisers were pleasantly surprised and are keen to broaden and attracted widespread interest. Equestrian events were strongly improve this annual show so it can become a prestige event on the supported with jumping attracting 250 entries. Time constraints national agricultural show calendar. kept another forty-odd entries out. Strong and growing support by sponsors and exhibitors helped create a satisfying variety which made a large part of the roughly 10000 visitors who came from far and wide stay much later than anticipated on both evenings. Stalls numbered well beyond 100 which was much better than the previous show held in 1998. As the Walkerville Agricultural Society is a non profit (Article 21) company, this year's healthy profit gets ploughed back into the 2014 show to the benefit of the whole community. Some events were exceedingly popular and should serve as a measure of the kind of events show goers want and enjoy. These include ox wagon rides on Hans Sturgeon's ox wagon dating from 1880 which took a few hundred trippers of all ages and ethnic What does the future hold? “Organisers started on the back foot this year and had to revive the show within six months,” Booyens points out.
