ProposalDescription: 

Afzelia Environmental Consultants were appointed by Umgeni Water to undertake the Basic Assessment Process for the proposed EJ Smith Dam gauging weir that is located in the Umdoni Local Municipality, within the Ugu District Municipality, within the KwaZulu-Natal Province. A V-Notch crump weir was selected as the best solution downstream of the EJ Smith dam because the pattern of the stream lines over a v-notch crump weir is smooth. This minimizes energy losses in the upstream pool thereby providing enough energy for the sediment to be transported over the weir instead of being deposited in front of it. It allows for measuring low flow rates, a normal flow of 404m³/day in this case, which will result with relatively good reliability in open channels. This is because of the flow cross-sectional are decreases rapidly as the head over the v-notch gets smaller.
