5 As a result, exploration, development and protection of aquifers is receiving unprecedented attention. Provision of the appropriate information to national water resource managers and planners is a critical part of the process which aims to provide a further twelve million people with adequate access to potable Sources:This map is based on the Borehole Prospects map provided by JRVegter, Hydrogeological Consultant and AJ Seymour, : This map indicates the qualitative measure of the relative ease withwhich a groundwater body can be potentially contaminated byanthropogenic activities and includes both aquifer vulnerability and the relative importance of the aquifer in terms of its classification.
