Context of this Report

Between 1996 and 1999,
the River Health Programme (RHP) conducted surveys on the three major river systems of Mpumalanga,
the Crocodile, Sabie-Sand and
Olifants Rivers, including
some of their tributaries.

The RHP collected and assessed
a substantial body of data on
the ecological health of these rivers during the surveys.

This report makes
that information available
in a state-of-environment
reporting framework.
