SOUTH AFRICA:

**********
OPEN DAY
**********

The City of Johannesburg, Region 7 Office has appointed Nemai
Consulting to
undertake a investigation into the improvement of the degraded condition
of
the Jukskei River. Since a section of the river runs through Alexandra,
this
project forms part of the Alexandra Renewal Project. The project aims to
provide positive consequences for the Alexandra community, natural
environment and ultimately the city of Johannesburg. Subsequent to the
determination of the current state of the Jukskei River from its source to
its confluence with the Modderfontein Spruit, areas and efficient
techniques
of intercession need to be identified to abate the serious existing
problems. The completed management plan will serve as a framework
with which
to implement other river restoration ventures.

The City of Johannesburg, Region 7 and Nemai Consulting would like to
invite
you to participate in an Open Day, scheduled for 12 MARCH 2002 from
14h00 –
19h00 at the COUNCIL CHAMBERS at the METROPOLITAN
BUILDING, to showcase all
work done by various organisations, groups and parties in relation to
overall improvement of water resources. This occasion will provide the
opportunity to demonstrate ranges of remediation practices and
initiatives
undertaken to various dignitaries, government officials, members of the
public and the press. We believe that your participation will contribute to
the success of the event. Please note that no area or river will receive
precedence, as the focus will fundamentally be on enhancing social and
environmental issues surrounding rivers.

Please indicate whether your organization would be interested in
exhibiting,
via fax and/or email. The size of your display (i.e. poster, model, video
presentation, etc.) and the facilities required (e.g. power supply) should
be included. There are no fees associated with the exhibition, but
members
are expected to provide all structures associated with the assembly of
their
displays. Due to the overwhelming response, confirmation should reach
Nemai
Consulting before 22 February 2002.

For further inquiries contact Donavan or Nandarani at (011) 482 1730.
