a) alternative ways of providing access to water services;b) the need for regional efficiency;c) the need to achieve benefit of scale;d) the need for low costs;e) the requirements of equity; andf) The availability of resources from neighbouring water services authorities.4) A water services authority may not unreasonably refuse or fail to give access to water services to a consumer orpotential consumer in its area of jurisdiction.5) In emergency situations a water services authority must take reasonable steps to provide basic water supply andbasic sanitation services to any person within its area of jurisdiction and may do so at the cost of that authority.6) A water services authority may impose reasonable limitations on the use of water services.19.6. Sanitation Master PlanThe Nkomazi Local Municipality, in response to the Millennium targets requirements, have prioritised planning for all theirsanitation infrastructure provision to cater for all their citizens by the year 2014.The municipality has resolved in the preparation of a Multi-year Business plan for the implementation of a Rural SanitationProgramme to eradicate all their rural backlogs by the provision of basic levels of sanitation.This technical report is specifically for villages where sanitation projects have been implemented in the past, but thebacklogs were not fully eradicated.It is planned that the programme will for part of the Nkomazi Local Municipality’s 2008/09 IDP and will implementation willhence commence.The population to be covered is 11,032 households, which do not have adequate sanitation facilities.The ISD survey carried out as part of preparing this SPTFS shows these communities to be typically poor rural communities.Not all the households have adequate sanitation facilities.The implementation of the recommendations made on this SPTFS will be dependent on the outcomes of the groundwaterprotocol study currently been conducted. But based on observations made from previous sanitation projects, it is assumedthat Ventilation Improved Pit (VIP) latrines will be provided as a basic level of services, with a proper groundwatermonitoring and quality management.VIP Toilets were constructed in the past with no groundwater problems, so it is safe to assume that the provision of VIPs inthese villages will still be acceptable.Local builders and local communities will be trained to carry out as much of the project work.Good sanitation, health and hygiene practices will be promoted by the programme. Activities to achieve this, will include aprogramme of house to house visits to follow-up, reinforce and monitor the effect of the health promotionIt is expected that the main construction phases of the programme will be completed in the year 2012, should all the fundsrequired be made available.19.7. Roads and Storm Water PlanThe Nkomazi Local Municipality (NLM) is responsible for the planning (in conjunction with Ehlanzeni District Municipality)and implementation of local roads in the area under its jurisdiction. At the inception of the roads planning process, NLMidentified the development of a Roads Master Plan (RMP) as one of the strategic projects, and formulated its scope inaccordance with the Provincial and National Government requirements, as well as the relevant Integrated Development andTransport Plans. The primary purpose of this report is to present the NLM with a Roads Master Plan to guide the basicplanning and development of local and regional roads in the study area.The following main aspects related to the road network planning system have been addressed in this report: Analyses of the current travel patterns in the NLM area Analyses of the provincial and regional road networks influencing the transport and road planning in the study area Consultation process with the officials and other relevant stakeholders Formulation of adequate road hierarchy and roads classification systems Formulation of the proposed roads implementation planIt should be noted that due to the budget constraints not all the roads were assessed, therefore the study reliedsignificantly technical assessment. The study focused on the low order roads, which are classes 4 and 5 road network.No traffic counts were done, but community engagement provided the team with the prevailing operations i.e. O-DNKLM Integrated Development Plan 2012_2013 124
19.8. Comprehensive Infrastructure PlanEvery Municipality needs to compile an Integrated Development Plan that defines a framework for creating and sustainingintegrated human settlements by providing the necessary infrastructure in a sustainable and coordinated manner.The CIP’s have been formulated to enhance the preparation of the IDP and consolidates the information from a wide rangeof planning instruments (SDF, existing IDP, Master Plans, Sector Plans, etc).It summarises the data at ward level by exploring the unique needs of communities and then formulate plans and projectsfor providing housing and infrastructure to service these needs. It therefore creates the basis for confirming the alignmentof the different sector plans.It furthermore addresses the full life cycle management of those assets by considering the refurbishment and maintenanceneeds, and ensure that the necessary skills and financial resources are available to achieve the goal of sustainable servicedelivery is achieved in the medium to long term.This information feeds back into the IDP process before December of each year for the revision of the IDP.The purpose of this process is to determine the infrastructure projects required to achieve the 2014 goals, assist andsupport the planning framework, provide input in to the IDP process and provide input to the MTECH process.This report serves as the first cycle of CIP’s to consolidate and report on infrastructure needs/backlogs, plannedprojects/initiatives, funding requirements and institutional challenges in terms of the following categories of information: Housing Water Sanitation and waste water First order roads Institutional interventions, and Inform the reader on an Action Plan to implement the process.Later CIP’s will expand this first version in subsequent years to also address the following additional functions: Solid waste Electricity, and Institutional development needs, and Financial sustainability.19.9. Electricity Master PlanNkomazi Local Municipality is the electricity distributor (licence holder) within areas of its service delivery. However, itbe noted that Eskom is also a licensed holder and the service provider in areas which were previously serviced by TED.Those areas are within the jurisdiction of Nkomazi Local Municipality area of service delivery.Eskom is the license holder and the service provider for the villages previously supplied by the former KaNgwane ElectricityCorporation lately known as TED (Transitional Electricity Distributor).Although according to the Municipal Systems Act, the Municipality is the service provider but could not exercise those rightswhen the business was auctioned and won by Eskom in 2004.The department of Minerals and Energy is giving electrification funds to the Municipality as the service provider.The infrastructure installed using the DME funds is being ring-fenced on Eskom books and shall be calculated in favour ofthe Municipality during the RED’s implementation.The maintenance record/load studies and future network expansion can be obtained from Eskom.19.10. Integrated Waste Management PlanThe main goal of integrated waste management (IWM) planning is to integrate and optimise waste Management in theregion by maximizing efficiency and minimizing financial costs and environmental Impacts in order to improve the quality oflife for its citizens.The compilation of an IWMP by a local authority enables the authority to spell out what its intentions are and how itproposes to achieve these goals. It sets applicable but reasonable required milestones which it hopes to achieve and thensubmits its IWMP to the relevant provincial authority for approval and acceptance.The Integrated Waste Management Planning process should incorporate all the major stages of the process, namely a reviewof the existing baseline situation (status quo) and legal environment, projections of future requirements; setting objectives;identifying system components (strategic planning); identifying and evaluating alternative methods/approaches for meetingNKLM Integrated Development Plan 2012_2013 125
