The Minister of Water and Sanitation has, in terms of section 69(1)(a) of the NWA, given notice of her intention to publish a draft pricing strategy for water use charges as contained in the schedule to this notice.
This pricing strategy provides the framework for the pricing of the use of water from South Africa's water resources, i.e. the use of raw (untreated) water from the water resource and/or supplied from government waterworks and the discharge of water into a water resource or onto land. Socioeconomic, environmental and other changes required this third revision of the pricing strategy.
Members of the public are invited to submit written comments within 90 days from the date of publication of this notice (i.e. on or before 11 February 2016).
