OPERATIONAL PERFORMANCE AND ACTIVITIES/PROJECTS

ACTIVITIES/PROJECTS Magalies Water subscribes to the views of DWAF that water is a scarce commodity in South Africa and that the construction of expensive new schemes can be eliminated or at least be postponed through the implementation of water conservation and demand management measures. Water conservation and demand management measures implemented by Magalies Water include the following: Setting of maximum allocations for higher classes of consumers. Communicating with consumers to make them aware of the need to restrict water consumption. Actively monitoring and controlling water-network losses and UFW.

ACTIVITIES/PROJECTS (Cont…) During the year under review, Magalies Water has contained water tariff increases between 0% - 6.8% within previously set targets without compromising the financial sustainability of the organisation. Despite challenges faced due to external factors such as deteriorating raw water quality and drought, operational costs are being contained and attempts are made to manage increases in the future. Time frames on an annual basis are currently established in order to assess the implementation of the strategies as well as evaluate progress on the set goals.

ACTIVITIES/PROJECTS (cont..) The Magalies Water Board has established a Central Laboratory Facility with a view to provide quality monitoring of potable water to all municipalities in its service area. It also has the capability for the monitoring of sanitation plants; The Board has entered into partnerships with a number of municipalities for the operation of bulk potable water and sewage plants. The abovementioned efforts are viewed against the background of the Constitutional obligation of WSA’s to provide water services; requirements of the MFMA.

MECHANISMS TO STRENGTHEN SERVICE DELIVERY

MECHANISMS TO STRENGTHEN SERVICE DELIVERY Partnering with other Water Boards or Water Utilities on Joint Ventures to identify the most effective Sanitation Models and Processes. This means Joint Task Teams would be established to conduct research and publish information regularly on findings. Progressive cost reduction in operational expenses and settlement of long term debt, and passing benefits of economies to consumers Vigorously pursuing relationships with WSA’s and fostering appointment as implementing agent in establishing basic water services inclusive of basic sanitation services;

MECHANISMS TO STRENGTHEN SERVICE DELIVERY Assisting WSA’s in “Project Consolidate” initiatives through partnerships and secondment of selected personnel; Utilisation of Water Forums and Other Stakeholder Relationship Management initiatives to address their concerns; Acceleration of transformation and Equity / gender balance internally thereby boosting morale among staff Deliberate encouragement and prodding of staff to further their education and learning – successful implementation of ABET (Out of 71 registered candidates, 47 were successful in various Levels of ABET Qualifications) Increased Spend in Training and Development

STRATEGIC CHALLENGES FACED BY MAGALIES WATER AND PLANS TO OVERCOME THEM

STRATEGIC CHALLENGES FACED BY MW Obtaining Support from DWAF regarding the above average / Inflation raw water tariff increases whilst the Water Board is expected to increase tariffs in line with Inflation targets Need for the improvement of the fast deteriorating raw water quality in such catchments areas as the Hartebeestpoort and Roodeplaat dams Finalisation of the WSA/WSP Service Level Agreements Reduction of UFW in areas of operation Managing the uncertainty created by the Institutional Reform process

STRATEGIC CHALLENGES FACED BY MW Accelerating assistance offered to Municipalities to deal with “Project Consolidate” challenges The Need to align and meet the challenges posed by the President in his 2006 State of the Nation address regarding water Continuously ensuring that the quality of potable water produced and delivered remain quality consistent Successfully managing the impact of HIV/AIDS at Magalies Water (Negotiating with ABSA for an Employee Support Program to assist MW in managing Voluntary disclosure) Accelerating access of Sanitation to all consumers in MW areas of operation

Already other projects in Moses Kotane are being implemented

DEALING WITH STRATEGIC CHALLENGES Institutional Reforms – continuous communication and information dissemination is currently performed and staff are regularly updated Project Consolidate (PC) Assistance – Target teams and proposal development as well as laboratory services, among others are being undertaken to assist WSA’s in their efforts to deal with PC challenges Quality Standards - The establishment of a Centralised Laboratory facility was primarily aimed at accelerating the testing of raw, potable and sewage water to ensure quality products Sanitation access - MW as an Implementing agent is already engaged with DWAF and affected WSA’s to accelerate basic and advanced sanitation provisioning to affected communities

DEALING WITH STRATEGIC CHALLENGES Customer Satisfaction – Surveys (both independent and MW driven) have been identified as the key to determination of customer satisfaction – the 2005 PMR Award for Service excellence is just but one driver Employee Satisfaction – a Performance Management System has been introduced to reward key performers and to develop inadequate performers (Board members also trained) The Training and Development spend has also been systematically increase to encourage personal development of staff Reduction of Operational Expenses – Service providers and suppliers to MW are being systemically informed that MW would not accept increases above inflation – This is assisting tremendously in efforts to reduce OPEX

DEALING WITH STRATEGIC CHALLENGES Reduction in OPEX – consolidation of business processes has been undertaken through the restructuring of the Organisational Structure in order to further reduce OPEX. HIV/AIDS Management – Voluntary campaigns have been undertaken to date, including participation in national campaigns such as HIV/AIDS Week, World Aids day, etc MW does not provide ARV’s nor is there a budget allocated for each beneficiary treatment.
