The Public Participation Process for the Cape Flats Aquifer WATER USE LICENCE APPLICATION is now open for public comment
The City of Cape Town Municipality (CCT) recently experienced one of its worst droughts since 1904, with a significant drop in the water storage capacity during the year 2017. This process compromised the CCTs ability to provide basic services, which then prompted the CCT to find alternative sources of water. This was done in an effort to augment and diversify the water supply for the CCT.
The CCT continues to develop a groundwater abstraction and managed aquifer recharge scheme in the Cape Flats Aquifer to utilize its vast groundwater stores as identified in the Western Cape Water Supply System (WCWSS) Water Reconciliation Strategy (DWS, 2016). As part of this groundwater development, the CCT proposes renew the water use licence at the Department of Water and Sanitation.
This Notice serves to inform that the CCTs consulting engineers (Zutari (Pty) Ltd) and the groundwater and environmental consultant (Umvoto South Africa (Pty) Ltd) have commenced with the Public Participation Process for the project as set out in Section 41(4) of the National Water Act (No. 36 of 1998).
