Northern Cape PSDF Volume 2 December 2011 reduced by half to approximately 20 million m³ due to the build‐up of sedimentation. The dam currently provides approximately 7,560 ha of irrigation water. d) Douglas Storage Weir The Douglas Storage Weir is situated near Douglas, upstream of the Orange ‐Vaal confluence. e) Neusberg Storage Weir The Neusberg Storage Weir is situated on the Orange River 12km upstream from Kakamas and was completed in 1993. The weir is 960m long and on average 5m high and has a storage capacity of almost two million m³. The weir diverts water into two canals, one on each bank of the Orange River. These canals supply water to the Kakamas Irrigation Scheme. f) Spitskop Dam The Spitskop Dam is situated near Kimberley on the Harts River in the Lower Vaal WMA. Map C.7: Main dams in the Northern Cape (Source: Department of Water Affairs). Approximately eight possible locations for future dams on the Orange River have been identified. The Boskraai Dam is mentioned as a priority in the 2004 National Water Resource Strategy. This dam is planned to be constructed at the Orange /Kwaai confluence. A dam at Vioolsdrift is also a priority to improve the control of the last section of the Orange River, approximately 1,800 km from the Vanderkloof Dam. The Orange River mouth is a protected area and a constant volume of water needs to be released into the sea to protect the ecology of the area. Namibia in turn is supporting the plan for the dam as it will secure additional irrigation water from the Orange River. This dam is required by 2023‐2026, and it Office of the Premier & Department of Rural Development & Land Reform 24 Dennis Moss Partnership
Northern Cape PSDF Volume 2 December 2011 is anticipated that the planning, surveying, design, and the South Africa‐Namibia negotiations will delay construction until 2014‐2018. An investigation of the potential of a dam at Aspoort in the Doring subarea of Olifants/Doorn WMA was undertaken by Northern Cape in the 1990s. The study indicated that a dam would have the potential for irrigation developments on a large scale. The Northern Cape Department of Agriculture originally proposed to undertake a pilot scheme to verify some of the assumptions used in the Aspoort Scheme proposal. However, this has not yet been undertaken. The Western Cape also investigated the Melkboom and Melkbosrug dams and a development cap was put in place for a period of seven years, up to end 2005, to ensure that ad hoc development did not preclude the development of any schemes by the Northern Cape. C.2.8 WATER QUALITY C.2.8.1 THE LOWER VAAL The land use in the Lower Vaal WMA is primarily livestock farming, with some dry land cultivation in the northeast. Intensive irrigation is practiced at Vaalharts. Diamond‐bearing intrusions near Kimberley and alluvial diamonds are found near Bloemhof. Iron ore and other minerals are found in the south‐eastern parts of the Lower Vaal WMA. The development in the Upper and Middle Vaal WMAs has led to the deterioration in the water quality of the water resources in the system, with salinisation and eutrophication being the two major water quality problems being experienced. Salination has either a natural or an anthropogenic cause. Although the origin of natural salination of river water is geological, human activities are associated with increased releases of salts, particularly at point sources of pollution, such as poorly managed urban settlements and mining residues. Water quality studies have found that levels of dissolved salts are high in the Lower Vaal downstream of the Harts River confluence. Irrigation along the lower Vaal River to Douglas causes concentration of salts. The Modder and Riet River irrigation schemes consume large amounts of fresh water and raise salinity levels in the depleted river flow to high levels, further adding to the pollution of the lower Vaal River at Douglas Barrage. Water quality can have a significant effect on crop production. All irrigation water contains dissolved mineral salts, but the concentration and composition of the dissolved salts vary according to the source of the water. Very high salt levels can reduce and even stop crop growth. Other reasons for high levels of salinity are related to mining activities. Eutrophication is the enrichment of water with plant nutrients nitrate and phosphates, which encourages the growth of algae. The algae cause problems in water purification. The sources of the nutrients include irrigation return flows, urban runoff, industrial discharges and wastewater treatment works discharges. Water quality studies have found that there is also excessive growth of water hyacinth. Eutrophication has negative economic implications for water users. Water boards in the Middle Vaal have been forced to upgrade their water treatment works to treat odour and colour associated with the eutrophication. Further impacts include alteration of the ecology of the river systems, the clogging of irrigation equipment, and being unable to use river systems for recreational purposes. The regulation of the Vaal River has resulted in a reduction in baseflows and flow variations in the river.
