ProposalDescription: 

The current water resources supplying the South Coast of KwaZulu-Natal are insufficient to meet the projected water demands. The Lower uMkhomazi Bulk Water Supply System (LUBWSS) is the recommended augmentation option for the existing Upper and Middle South Coast Supply area. Therefore, Umgeni Water proposed to construct the LUBWSS in order to increase the assurance of water supply. The Ngwadini weir, abstraction works and pipeline forms part of the LUBWSS and will be constructed to fill the Ngwadini Off-channel Storage Dam during summer periods of excess flow.

Expanded_Motivation: 

The current water resources supplying the South Coast of KZN are insufficient to meet the projected water demands. The Upper and Middle South Coast are currently supplied by water from local rivers and dams, augmented by the Mgeni System. The Mgeni System is the main water source that supplies about six million people and industries in the eThekwini Municipality, uMgungundlovu District Municipality (DM), Msunduzi Local Municipality (LM), and a small portion of Ugu DM. These municipal areas comprise the economic powerhouse of the KZN. Currently, Umgeni Water is pursuing the project further as a scheme for domestic water supply to the South Coast. Augmentation of the water resources supplying the South Coast is urgently needed to both relieve the load on the Umgeni Water supply system, and to meet growing water demands along the South Coast of KZN. The LUBWSS is the recommended augmentation option to be implemented to supplement potable water supply to the existing Upper and Middle South Coast supply area.
