Overview
Supporting the water sector and the sustainability of natural resources in developing countries constitutes a major objective of ADFD, which has financed a project to develop water networks in Butha-Buthe. It supplies clean potable water to the region, while also increasing efficiency of groundwater usage. The project includes construction of a 76,000m3 water barrier and outlet on the Hololo River, alongside a water treatment and decontamination plant, together with constructing 350 kilometres of water supply lines. Twenty-five pumping stations and 42 water tanks were also set up as part of the project.
