AGREEMENT ON INCOMATI RIVER
South African Water Affairs Minister Ronnie Kasrils has agreed with his
Swazi and Mozambican counterparts on the use and development of the shared
water resources of the three countries. The agreement covers the Incomati
River, which rises near Badplaas in Mpumalanga and then winds its way
through the three countries until finally running into the Indian Ocean
from Mozambique.
Called the Inkomati Development Initiative, the study, funded by the Danish
government, will gather information on all current and future water
projects in the area to lay the framework for future projects.
