REPORT ON THE DRILLING, PUMP TESTING AND WATER QUALITY ANALYSIS OF TWO (2) NEW BOREHOLES IN THE OZWATHINI AND NHLANGAKAZI AREAS IN THE
ILEMBE DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY As per the amended orders, this office has undertaken the drilling, pump testing and water quality analysis of two (2) new boreholes in the Ozwathini and Nhlangakazi areas located within the Ilembe District Municipality. The results and findings of this investigation are contained in this report. 1. EXPLORATION DRILLING Messrs. JD Drilling established on-site on the 5th March 2015 and commenced with the drilling of the Nhlangakazi borehole (DWS Regional Borehole Number: KZN150049). On completion of borehole KZN150049, the drillers established in the Ozwathini area and commenced the drilling of borehole KZN150050. Due to the weathered formations prevalent in these areas, the boreholes were installed using a combination of symmetrix and rotary percussion drilling methods. Both boreholes intercepted water at depth and were drilled to a completion depth of 100 m bgl. Both boreholes were cased with plain uPVC casing, as well as slotted uPVC casing opposite the water strikes identified during the drilling of each borehole. Following the installation of the casing, silica gravel pack was installed between the casing and annulus of each borehole to ensure long-term sustainability of the boreholes and bentonite seals were installed in the top 0.5 m of each borehole to prevent the ingress of surface run-off, which could lead to contamination of the groundwater. The results of the newly drilled boreholes are summarised in Table 1 below, while the detailed borehole geological and construction logs are contained in Appendix A.

2. PUMP TESTING Messrs Midlands Pumps, the appointed pump test contractor, established on site on 17th March 2015 to undertake the pump testing of boreholes KZN150049 and KZN150050. The pump testing activities on borehole KZN150049 commenced with a 4 x 1 hour Stepped Drawdown Test, which was followed by a 24 Hour Constant Discharge and Monitored Recovery Test. The pump testing activities on borehole KZN150050 commenced with a 5 x 1 hour Stepped Drawdown Test, which was followed by a 24 Hour Constant Discharge and Monitored Recovery Test. The pump test data was forwarded to this office and analysed using the dedicated aquifer test software (FC Method) to determine the sustainable yield of the boreholes. The results of the pump tests are summarised in Table 2 below, whilst the plotted pump test data and borehole management recommendation sheets are contained in Appendix B.

Since the installation of these 2 exploration boreholes was successful, and taking the favourable geological and geohydrological conditions in the area into account, a series of additional boreholes can be installed throughout the area in order to meet the required demnd of 400 m3/day. As has been discussed with the client, the installation of the additional boreholes will be undertaken once the project has been accepted by the Department of Water and Sanitation (DWS) and once the funding has been secured by the client. 4. WATER QUALITY On completion of the pump tests, a water sample was collected from each borehole and submitted to Talbot Laboratories for analysis according to the abbreviated SANS 241:2011 suite of determinants. The results received have been compared to the SANS 241:2011 Standards for Drinking Water. A summary of the comparison is shown in Table 4 below, whilst a detailed comparison is contained in Appendix C and the laboratory certificates are contained in Appendix D.

5. CONCLUSIONS Two (2) boreholes were installed at the drilling targets DT #1 and DT #2 identified
during the geophysical investigation.
Borehole KZN150049 was drilled to a completion depth of 100 m bgl using a combination of symmetrix and rotary percussion drilling methods. Water strikes were encountered at 28, 36 and 41 m bgl and the borehole had a final blowyield of 14 440 l/hour. The construction of KZN150049 was completed by installing uPVC plain and slotted casing to depth, as well as gravel pack to ensure its long term stability.
Borehole KZN150050 was drilled to a completion depth of 100 m bgl using a combination of symmetrix and rotary percussion drilling methods. Water strikes were encountered at 30, 68 and 100 m bgl and the borehole had a final blowyield of 18 000 l/hour. The construction of KZN150050 was completed by installing uPVC plain and slotted casing to depth, as well as gravel pack to ensure its long term stability.
The boreholes were subjected to pump tests and groundwater samples were collected and submitted for analysis according to the abbreviated SANS 241:2011 suite of determinants, to ascertain whether the water was suitable for the intended domestic use.

Based on the analysis of the pump test data, borehole KZN150049 is capable of producing a sustainable yield of 51.84 kl/day (6.48 m3/hour on an 8 hour pump cycle). This is suitable for the installation of a submersible pump.
Based on the analysis of the pump test data, borehole BH KZN150050 is capable of
producing a sustainable yield of 60.48 kl/day (7.56 m3/hour on an 8 hour pump cycle). This is suitable for the installation of a submersible pump.
The results of the water quality analyses indicate that the water from both boreholes
is suitable for drinking without any treatment.
The success of the borehole installations, along with the favourable geological and geohydrological conditions in the area, imply that a series of additional boreholes installed in the area should result in meeting the required demand of 400 m3/day.
6. RECOMMENDATIONS Both boreholes KZN150049 and KZN150050 should be equipped with submersible
pumps as per the details laid out in our attached pump test management recommendation sheets.
The equipping installation should also include at least the following:
- 24 hour timer to ensure that the borehole is pumped as per our recommended pumping cycle.
- Water meter to check pump discharge rates and volumes abstracted from the aquifer.
- Conduit should be installed next to the pump riser to allow measuring of static and dynamic water levels.
- Overload and dry run protection to prevent the pump "burning" out in case the borehole is over pumped.
- High quality lightning and electrical surge protection. - Pressure switch to stop the pump once the tanks or reservoir/s are full. - The completed pump installation should be protected by a lockable concrete
manhole and the well head must be graded to ensure surface runoff cannot enter and contaminate the borehole.
The boreholes should be equipped with remote water level monitoring systems to
allow real time monitoring of the water table and abstraction rates.
The results of the real time monitoring of the boreholes should be analysed by a geohydrologist on a regular basis to ensure that the boreholes are not being over pumped and so that adjustments can be made to the discharge rates / pump cycles timeously if required. This is imperative in this area, since many existing boreholes in the area appear to have been overpumped / poorly managed and have run dry.
Despite the groundwater being suitable for drinking without any treatment, it is recommended that the groundwater is chlorinated to ensure it remains free of E.Coli and Total Coliforms.
Water quality samples should be taken from each borehole at least once a year, and should be submitted to an accredited laboratory for analysis as per the SANS

241:2011 suite of determinants for drinking water. This is to ensure the water remains suitable for drinking without treatment.
Once the project has been accepted by DWS and once the funding has been secured, the geophysical borehole sitings to identify the additional drilling targets for the additional boreholes can commence.
7. CAUTION The results of the pump test only represent a "snap shot in time" and therefore the long term sustainable yield of the boreholes can only be accurately determined if a record of static and dynamic water levels and pumping volumes is kept and analysed on a regular basis by a geohydrologist. We trust that this meets with your immediate requirements and will be pleased to discuss any issues arising from the above. Prepared by:
