Deadline of 23 May 2023 is fast approaching, and members of the public are left with five (5) days to submit comments on the draft regulations on access and use of government waterworks (state dams) and surrounding state-owned land for recreational purposes.

The Department of Water and Sanitation (DWS) published a notice for comments draft regulations on Government Gazette Notice No. 48294 on 24 March 2023, opening a 60-day window for interested parties and individuals to submit written comments on the access and use of the government water works for various recreational purposes including commercial activities such as fishing, organised sporting, tourism, accommodation and other events.

The department owns numerous government waterworks (state dams), and according to Section 113 of the National Water Act, 1998 (Act No. 36 of 1998), the water and surrounding state-owned land of state dams may be made available for recreational purposes.

  • To meet the need to protect the biodiversity of aquatic and associated ecosystems and to minimise pollution of these water resources;
  • To meet the need to achieve, to the extent practicable, broad and accountable participation in the decision-making process in resource management planning;
  • To meet the need to ensure compatibility of recreational water use with other water uses;
  • To meet the need to ensure the safety of recreational water users; and
  • To minimise the associated risks of the Department.
