5 As a result, exploration, development andprotection of aquifers is receiving unprecedentedattention. 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 accessto potable Sources:This map is based on the Borehole Prospects map provided by JR Vegter, Hydrogeological Consultant and AJ Seymour, : This map indicates the aquifer classificationsystem of South Africa.
