3 PART A Progress Report on Climate Change 3
4 What is El Nino, La Nina, ENSO? El Nino: an extreme climatic event that occurs every 2 to 7 years, caused by the warming of the eastcentral equatorial Pacific Ocean La Nina: caused by the cooling of the sea surface waters of the Pacific (characterised by the wetting conditions). La Nina is the opposite of an El Nino. ENSO: El Nino Southern Oscillation is periodic fluctuation in sea surface temperature (El Niño) and the air pressure of the overlying atmosphere (Southern Oscillation) across the equatorial Pacific Ocean. It is a general term used to describe both the El Nino and the La Nina 4
5 The Oceanic Nino Index is an indicator for monitoring the El Nino and La Nina 5
6 6
7 Impact of El Nino The El Nino occurs when the sea surface temperature in the east central equatorial Pacific exceeds 0.5ºC (for La Nina less than -0.5ºC) The El Nino/La Nina events have historically occurred as a result of natural climate variability, with increasing frequency under a changing climate The 97/98 El Nino which is the El Nino of the century was greater than the current yet the impact in terms of drought was less - may be attributed to The contribution or impact of climate change to the current drought That El Nino was preceded by the La Nina and followed by a moderate to strong La Nina The current El Nino, is still one of the strongest on record Only 10% of El Nino events were followed by another El Nino. Prospects are good, about 40% that there will be a La Nina in 2016/17, or neutral conditions (~ 50% chance) 7
8 Current drought is due to climate variability, change and El Nino El Nino peaked in December and is decaying during autumn and winter Neutral by May June July In other words, warming is gradually decreasing. However, it is still strong Potential La Nina conditions in Spring El Nino is reaching a neutral state Due to Climate Change, temperatures in SA are likely to increase by at least 1.5 times the global average rate 8
9 As the warming decreases from late summer, the wetting is projected to gradually increase 9
10 Rainfall 3 Month Forecast After Starkey, 2015 Temps Below normal rainfall; with above normal in late autumn to early winter Gradual decrease in warming despite persistent high temperature in autumn 10
11 Systems (i.e. hydrological) response High temperatures lead to high evaporation rates that in turn reduces runoff and groundwater recharge This means less water available to fill the dams and to replenish groundwater storage Less water in dams, rivers, soil means Less water available for energy generation, food security, poverty eradication, livelihoods or for economic growth Increased degradation of water quality due to increased concentration of dissolved materials DWS contributes to addressing these challenges through the development of supply systems and/or management of demands (or requirements) 11
12 Hydro-climatic Zones of South Africa 12
13 Zone Observed Rainfall ( ) Significant reduction in rainfall & number of rainy days high in autumn (MAM) Overall decrease in rain days in DJF and MAM and in the annual mean. Increase trend in precipitations for southern part of the region (along Drakensberg Mountains) in SON. 3: Vaal Increased rainfall in the west and decreased rainfall in the east in DJF.

18 Interventions or measures The Department collaborate with relevant research institutions (e.g. WRC, SAWS, CSIR, UCT, ARC, UP...) on climate observation, forecasts and projections on continuous basis For instance vulnerability assessment tools developed through the WRC has been taken up by DWS Climate forecasts and prediction tools are used to inform adaptation The Water Conservation and Demand Management Flagship Programme The implementation of the National Water Conservation and Water Demand Programme is being implemented in the industry, mining, power generation, agriculture and water services sectors collaboratively with the DEA The accelerated provision of rainwater harvesting tanks in rural and low-income settlements DWS s programme on War on Leaks Strengthening institutional capacity for demand management and water use efficiency 18
19 Interventions or measures (2) Monitoring and analysis of data and information to track changes (e.g. dam and groundwater levels, temperature trends) The hydrological data from DWS as well as rainfall and temperature data and information from SAWS are used to track changes in the system Development, review and implementation of the operating rules to inform course of action (e.g. water use restrictions) The operating rules are reviewed as climatic conditions change Diversification of water sources Enhanced use of unconventional water sources such as groundwater, desalination of brackish water, rainwater harvesting, water reuse DWS has lately sited, drilled and equipped an unprecedented number of boreholes to supply water to stressed areas Increasing the size of the current reservoirs e.g. Raising the wall of Clanwilliam Dam to increase capacity 19

21 In summary so far The current drought cannot only be attributed to the El Nino, but also to climate variability and change and other factors (e.g. increased water use) The model projections are in agreement that the warming (El Nino) is gradually decaying and may reach neutral state during winter, yet temperatures are likely to remain high for some time There is also a likelihood of above normal rainfall in spring The hydrological responses include inadequate water available for filling dams and replenishing groundwater storage Interventions include water conservation and demand management measures, use of relevant decision support tools including forecasts and operating rules to inform decisions underpinned by monitoring data and information Diversification of water sources and resizing of storage capacity are also important adaptation measures used by the DWS 21

32 Short-term mitigation measures Water conservation and water demand management (War on Leaks) Surface water resource management (optimised operation of the Vaal River System) Manage and use groundwater resources (drilling and equipping boreholes) Re-use and desalination of water Eradication of invading alien plants/catchment care (WfW programme by DEA) Eradication of illegal water use (enforcement in the Vaal River System) Development of surface water resources (raising of the following dams in progress, Hazelmere and Clanwilliam) Water Transfers (emergency transfers from Tugela to Goedetrouw, and Othangathi River transfer to Hazelmere) Rainwater harvesting (provision of tanks in selected areas) Provision of static storage tanks at strategic locations and the carting of water by tanker 32
33 Medium-term to long-term measures Medium term measures: domestic rain water harvesting, hydro-census on current groundwater utilization and possible future use, integrating groundwater and surface water use in the future, small scale emergency desalination, further water transfers, dolomitic aquifer abstraction and recharge Long term measures: review all state owned reservoir operating rules, incorporate all municipal and privately owned dams into the management system for future, further transfer schemes to improve drought resilience, large scale desalination options, institutionalise the conjunctive use of surface and ground water, water quality management with initial focus on WWTW, construction of new dams/reservoirs, long term solution for AMD 33
34 Drought Interventions by tankers & boreholes Water tankering to critically affected communities is procured by DWS, Municipalities, CBOs and NGOs as an emergency measure to deal with the drought situation (details shown in the next slide below) This is done based on a needs assessment and business plans drawn up to resource the intervention accordingly. Although 458 tankers have already been procured, because of the increasing severity of the drought it is estimated that a further 742 tankers will be required. DWS is working towards securing more funds to support this growing need Groundwater resource is more resilient to drought. A programme of increasing groundwater use is being implemented, entailing refurbishment of existing boreholes and drilling & equipping new ones as shown below 34

51 The Role of Civil Society Since the beginning of 2016, we have witnessed an unprecedented humanitarian support from civil society South Africans from all walks of life, from very young school children, adults, community based organisations and business are coming forward and making financial contributions and donations of 5 litre bottled drinking water for distribution to needy communities across the country by amongst others, Operation Hydrate and Gift of Givers supported by Nelson Mandela Foundation and Proudly South African 51
52 What can you do to protect our scarce resource? Consumers need to be conscious of the consequences of actions with regard to water use. Some tips for water saving are: o Fix leaking taps, toilets and pipes; o Re-use water for flushing toilets and gardening; o Collect water from rainfall; o Plant indigenous plants; o Don t leave taps running; o Don t leave the tap running when brushing teeth
53 PART C Progress on the disbursement of drought relief funding to provinces 53
54 Context It should be noted that only Kwa-Zulu Natal received dedicated funding for drought interventions Other provinces are using funds which are reprioritised in DWS budget Funds prioritized according to need, level of stress (criticality), expected effectiveness, viability & speed of interventions, and numbers of households being affected 54
55 Funding for drought relief interventions An initial amount of R352.4 million was reallocated to drought relief programme (R154.5 million was funded from WTE whilst R197.7 million was funded from Main account A further R185 million was allocated from WTE during 2015/16 financial year resulting in a total allocation of R340 million from WTE National Treasury has disallowed roll over of R46 million and Water Services Operating Subsidy of (WSOS) of R50.5 million Reprioritisation of R61.5 million had to be done from other programmes A total allocation of R502 million
