According to the investigation conducted by SRK Consulting, the three highest priorities are for the following hazards:• Floods• Hazardous materials; and• Environmental degradation.

Flood Hazards
� Perceived Priority: Very High
� Future Expected Problems: � Flood line areas are not really perceived to be the
problem, but storm water reticulation system inadequacies are problematic
� Storm water system can not handle the run-off; this is probably linked to increased development. It will only get worse as the metro grows, especially with the Coega development

Flood Hazards - Severely Vulnerable Areas:
� Widespread - the entire bay area- generally referred to as the "Chatty River Delta" -detention pond areas.
� Specific flood lines are available, specific areas within the Chatty river flood lines were indicated on the maps as especially high hazard zones.
� Specific areas are the detention pond structures, where people go and live in the flat areas behind the pond structure. This sometimes occurs with road crossings, where the detention is part of the embankment. Uitenhage and Despatch area along the Swartkops river.

Risk Assessment: Specific Action Points / Recommendations (SRK)
• Current hazard severity maps and vulnerability maps have to be further refined and verified through field work.
• Flood hazard maps need to be developed along major water courses
• Early warning systems should be implemented, especially for flood-related hazards
![Page 33: Nelson Mandela Bay Disaster Managementrsmc.weathersa.co.za/RSMCarchive/PDF/Nelson Mandela... · • The NMBM has currently got 16 automatic weather stations within the metro area](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022080721/5f7a37f2204a8146bb3c0ebc/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Recommendations:
• That the need for and prioritisation of, early warning systems be assessed according to the Risk Assessment outcomes and prioritisation.
• That the flood warning system be integrated with the South African Weather Services (SAWS) rainfall monitoring stations.

Meeting held on 6 March 2006: Flood Forecasting System Implementation- main aims
• To develop a GIS based technology to estimate possible high water levels and associated flood hazard zones using outputs of the National Flood Forecasting System as inputs to a flood level prediction model which has already been partly developed by SRK.
• To enhance technology transfer of the study on the “National Flood Nowcasting System towards an Integrated Mitigation Strategy” by enabling and capacitating our disaster management centre to issue scientifically based flood warnings to our most vulnerable people at risk of severe flooding and possible loss of life.

Flood Forecasting System Implementation: main aims (cont.)
• To aid in proactively mitigating one of the identified high hazard categories, namely flooding.
• To aid in developing a pilot study within the NMMM area which can then be applied on a national basis and used by other local authorities.
• To compile a database of rainfall-runoff data.
![Page 39: Nelson Mandela Bay Disaster Managementrsmc.weathersa.co.za/RSMCarchive/PDF/Nelson Mandela... · • The NMBM has currently got 16 automatic weather stations within the metro area](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022080721/5f7a37f2204a8146bb3c0ebc/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Further study requirements would include:
− Determine status quo of current instrumentation and monitoring systems at the NMMM
− Determine the need for additional monitoring instruments and communication systems
− Establish modelling needs for real-time runoff predictions based on real-time rainfall data.
