DDC classification:

NAM 553.79 KIR

Summary: Investigations early last century that led to the discovery of the Stampriet Artesian Basin (SAB), which is one of the largest aquifer systems in the country, have resulted in the development of five towns and extensive agricultural development. Although stock farming is the major industry, irrigation has increased considerably over the past years and is currently the major water user in the Basin. As the SAB is a water control area, a water management plan for the area was needed, and it became necessary to do a detailed assessment of the system in order to prevent over-exploitation and assure optimal use of the reserve.
