It is a platform for the general public, civil society and the public and private sector to contribute to the consolidated effort to fund various initiatives. The Citizens in Solidarity campaign (CIS), which is part of the overall communication campaign of the Fund, aims to lower the spread of COVID-19 through strengthening the Fund’s objectives of prevention, detection and care. Our message is to invite all South Africans to become Citizens in Solidarity. Being a Citizen in Solidarity is easy. The campaign is an opportunity for every South African to play their part in preventing the spread of the virus. The message is that a few simple changes in behaviour saves lives. And it is easy to do. “Wash your hands to protect your neighbours; wear a mask to protect your friends; keep a safe distance to protect your family; and just be kind.” A growing sense of fear, anxiety, mistrust and grief spread through communities as COVID-19 cases increased. The mandate of the CIS campaign is to leverage networks across key sectors of society to change simple personal behaviours that could significantly spread the rate of infection.

This small estuary had an above average depth of 2.8 m, remained open for extensive periods and was colonized by Zostera capensis. iii EXECUTIVE SUMMARY BACKGROUND AND MOTIVATION FOR THE RESEARCH There are an increasing number of people utilising the South African coastline. This is creating a need to evaluate estuary and coastal resources and to identify sensitive areas where careful planning and management must take place. Management tools such as importance rating systems and state or condition assessments have become necessary to summarise and express scientific information. The botanical importance rating system is one such method and was developed in a previous Water Research Commission Project (Adams et al.

    Statistical Based Regional Flood Frequency Estimation Study for South Africa Using Systematic, Historical and Palaeoflood Data Pilot Study – Catchment Management Area 15 by D van Bladeren, P K Zawada and D Mahlangu SRK Consulting & Council for Geoscience Report to the Water Research Commission on the project “Statistical Based Regional Flood Frequency Estimation Study for South Africa using Systematic, Historical and Palaeoflood Data” WRC Report No 1260/1/07 ISBN 078-1-77005-537-7 March 2007 DISCLAIMER This report has been reviewed by the Water Research Commission (WRC) and approved for publication. Approval does not signify that the contents necessarily reflect the views and policies of the WRC, nor does mention of trade names or commercial products constitute endorsement or recommendation for use EXECUTIVE SUMMARY INTRODUCTION During the past 10 years South Africa has experienced several devastating flood events that highlighted the need for more accurate and reasonable flood estimation. The most notable events were those of 1995/96 in KwaZulu-Natal and north eastern areas, the November 1996 floods in the Southern Cape Region, the floods of February to March 2000 in the Limpopo, Mpumalanga and Eastern Cape provinces and the recent floods in March 2003 in Montagu in the Western Cape. These events emphasized the need for a standard approach to estimate flood probabilities before developments are initiated or existing developments evaluated for flood hazards. The flood peak magnitudes and probabilities of occurrence or return period required for flood lines are often overlooked, ignored or dealt with in a casual way with devastating effects. The National Disaster and new Water Act and the rapid rate at which developments are being planned will require the near mass production of flood peak probabilities across the country that should be consistent, realistic and reliable.
