Airphoto Cover, Large-scale SURVEY OF KENYA ANNUAL REPORT 1969 1. REVIEW OF THE YEAR 1.1. The main activities of the department continued unchanged: that is, the making of accurate surveys of land boundaries and production of large-scale plans for registration of land titles; the production and revision of topographical maps in a full range of scales, for use in administration, defence, tourism, education, development planning, etc., and activities connected wi.th the above; for example, aerial photography, technician training, etc. 1.2. The retirement of expatriates from the permanent staff continued and severa! new appointments and promotions of Kenya citizens were made. How­ ever, there are still not enough qualified citizens to fill the establishment of Staff Surveyors; at the end of the year Il such posts were held by. qualified personnel under technical aid agreement from Britain, Yugoslavia and India and there were still nine posts vacant. 1.3. Professional training continued at University College, Nairobi, Waltham Forest Technical College, England, and New Brunswick University, Canada. ' Technical training continued at Twickenham Technical College, England, at the Kenya Polytechnic, and in the department. 1.4. For the financial year 1969/70, in spite of a· planned expansion of adjudication surveys, the total establishment feil by one. Estimated recurrent expenditure increased by Kf8,100 to Kf487,000. 1.5. The demand for ali kinds of land surveys and maps and plans continued to increase in proportion to the increase in the development and population of Kenya. In conjunction with the factors mentioned above this put a severe strain on the resources of the department. 1.6. The Directorate of Overseas Surveys continued to carry out surveys and produce maps as part of British aid and work started on additional mapping to be carried out by Canada under ·a Joan-agreement. P. P. ANYUMBA, Director of Surveys. 2. ADMINISTRATION 2.1. General The department continued in the portfolio of the Minister for Lands and Settlement which also includes the departments responsible for Govemment Lands, Land Registration, Land Adjudication, Land Settlement, Squatter Settle­ ment, and Town and Country Planning. Pive provincial survey offices were maintained in Nairobi, Mombasa, Nyeri, Nakuru and Kisumu, and 11 district survey offices in other towns. · The annual staff meeting of ali heads of branches and sections, attended also by provincial and district surveyors, was held on 7th-8th August 1969. 2.2. Visits and Visitors The Director attended the 8th meeting of the E.A. Land Survey Examinations Board at Kampala on 5th May and Acting Director the 9th meeting at Dar es Salaam on 6th October. The many visitors to the department during the year included:­ Mr. C. Antoun, Chief Cartographer, E.C.A., Addis Ababa. Mr. P. Arlidge, The Economist Intelligence Unit,_ London. Mr. P. F. Berme!, U.S. Geological Survey, Washington. Dr. A. J. Branderburger, Prof. of Photogrammetry, University Laval, Quebec, Canada. Mr. P. Fletcher, Directorate of Military Survey, England. Dr. R. E. Glitsch, UNESCO, Paris. Dr. H. Kadomura, Prof. of Geography, Tokyo. Mr. M. Klimesh, UN Topographical Engineer, Somalia. Prof. G. Larsen, UN Expert on Land Consolidation, Ceylon.

Col. D. Wilson, M.B.E., AD Military Survey Near East and Gulf. Mr. J. Wrighrt, Deputy Director of Over.seas Surveys (U.K.) Members of the Royal Geographical Society, South Turkana Expedition. 2.3. Establishment In the approved 1969/70 Estimates the establishment of officers comprises:- Administrative and Professional 34 Executive and Technical 147 Clerical and Sub-technical 347 Subordinate staff 366 Total 894 a reduction of one post. There was an increase in persona! emoluments met by the Development Fund (for Land Adjudication Surveys) without a corresponding increase in posts and a decrease in Recurrent Persona! Development without a corresponding decrease in posts, which in effect meant that development funds were used to pay for recurrent work. The retirement of non-citizens continued. In the professional and top technical grades the total of 89 officers serving on U.K. Overseas Aid Terms in 1962 bad fallen to 11 by the end of 1969, and three of the latter bad already given notice of retirement in 1970. The supply of qualified replacements does not equal the rate of retirement and up to 19 vacancies are expeoted in these gmdes by May 2 1970, when three surveyors from lndia and three photogrammetrists from Yugoslavia will have completed their 30 months' contracts. Three Kenyan Staff Surveyors were promoted to Superintendent (Super­ numerary). Two Survey graduates from University College, Nairobi, joined as Staff Surveyors and onè R.I.C.S. finalist from Waltham Forest Technical college (U.K.) as Assistant Surveyor.

  • Hydraulic Practice in Hydrology
    River Conveyance Analysis in a Data Sparse and a Data Rich Region: Case Studies in Kenya and Switzerland Master’s Thesis Faculty of Science University of Bern presented by Danielle Huser 2016 Supervisor: Prof. Dr. Rolf Weingartner Institute of Geography and Oeschger Centre for Climate Change Research Co-Supervisor: Dr. Andreas Zischg Institute of Geography and Oeschger Centre for Climate Change Research Advisor: Dr. Hanspeter Liniger Institute of Geography i Abstract This master thesis addresses two cases studies with rather different initial condition. First, it aims to establish stage discharge relations in data-sparse regions in the lower Ewaso Ng’rio Basin in Kenya, and secondly, it proceeds to a weak point analysis along the main rivers of the Bernese Oberland in Switzerland. Regardless of their geographical distance, for both re- gions with their respective issues a hydrodynamic 1D simulations were conducted with the software Basement, providing simulations of river flow based on measured cross sections. In arid regions water scarcity is becoming a threat to more and more people. The Ewaso Ng’rio Basin (64 000 km2), located around the Mount Kenya is subjected to increasing pres- sure on water resources because of rising demands for irrigation, domestic purposes, and livestock in the upper basin. In the lower basin, users suffer from even more pronounced water scarcity, because they have secondary access to the rivers. Research on hydrological processes is limited since gauging stations (RGS) were missing up to this study. In order to overcome that limitation, this study aims to establish stage-discharge relations for four sites in the lower Ewaso Ng’iro Basin by relying on newly installed RGS providing water level data.

  • Investigation of Silali Basin As an Extra-Terrestrial Impact Crater (ETIC) Using Remote Sensing

Box 2030-20200, Kericho, Kenya 2 School of Environmental Studies, University of Eldoret, P.O. Box 1125-30100, Eldoret, Kenya Our gratitude goes to the University of Kabianga for partially funding this research study, besides keeping a track of it Abstract For years, extra-terrestrial impact cratering was esoteric. However, impacts have become very important, mainly because they have been identified as the likely immediate cause of dinosaur extinction. Impact cratering by extra-terrestrial bodies including asteroids comets and meteorites is an important geologic process, not only for the minerals that it forms, but also because of the knowledge that it is dangerous to mankind and life on earth. There is also the fact that extra-terrestrial impact crater building is a continuous process that may be going on even this very minute, somewhere in the universe. Consequently, the earth, just like other members of the solar system is targeted by extra-terrestrial falling objects. The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of impact cratering on Kenya’s environment, with focus on Silali basin. Silali basin is a depression that is found to the north of Lake Baringo; around Kapedo town. It is suspected to be an Extra –Terrestrial Impact Crater (ETIC).

  • Lucas Pkiech – Violent Political Rebel Or Christian Spiritual Leader? a Sketch of Events in the Life of a Controversial Figure in Pokot History
    NORSK TIDSSKRIFT FOR MISJONSVITENSKAP 3/2013 131 Lucas Pkiech – violent political rebel or Christian spiritual leader? A sketch of events in the life of a controversial figure in Pokot history. ERLING LUNDEBY Introduction The events being dealt with here took place in present day West Pokot District of Rift Valley Province, in Western Kenya. A crucial date in recent Pokot history is April 24th, 1950. On that fateful afternoon Lucas Pkiech, and some three hundred of his followers clashed with the colonial Kenya Government police troops, killing three European officers and an African policeman at Kollowa in East Baringo District. The immediate government crackdown and ensuing eight to ten years has made a deep impact on Pokot social and religious life. Hundreds were detained and imprisoned. Many never returned home. Numerous children lost one or both parents. Families were split on how to deal with the contentious issues. Some 132 NORSK TIDSSKRIFT FOR MISJONSVITENSKAP 3/2013 followed; others rejected Lucas outright. Some cooperated with the authorities; others defied the government. And others tried to do both at the same time. When this painful period came to an end, nobody wanted to raise the issues again. Most Pokot simply wanted to be left alone in peace – which they basically were until the early 1980’s. Detention policies that were generally set in place by the colonial government in Kenya, and in Kikuyu particularly, have recently become clear. Elements of those policies and punishments were also utilized to quell rebellious elements in Pokot.1 Like the Kikuyu, many of the Pokot people were severely traumatized.
