7th Precinct: 5 UNCELEBRATED SPRINGS - Reclaim Camissa - Citizen Project (sitios de interés)
Descripción del sitio
http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=176604&id=201229746552Five of Table Mountain's artesian freshwater springs, namely BELTZFONTEIN; SCHOLTZFONTEIN; KLEINTUIN; KLIP and VERLATENBOSCH issue on the mountain and are led down to this rather compromised culvert and into the stormwater system on the corner of Bridal & Rugby Roads, Oranjezicht.
There exists no data as to how much water is available from the 5 springs that collect at this point, other than for the Kleintuin Spring, which in 1960 measured 0.74l/s.
In 1995, the water was tested and found to be of low pH and alkalinities, therefore corrosive to concrete and metalic fittings.
