Swaziland: Water and Related Land Resources Framework Plan
Abstract
Late in 1979, the Government of Swaziland (005) requested assistance from the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) in the preparation of a water resources development plan. Under the authority of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as amended, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers agreed to prepare a Terms of Reference (TOR) for the requested assistance. The task was assigned to the Ohio River Division and was completed in October 1979. In early 1980, the 005 requested that the TOR be implemented. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers agreed to undertake the investigation and prepare the water resources development plan defined in the TOR; the task was assigned to the Omaha District. The time and funds required to complete the work as described in the TOR were not available. A revised TOR reflecting the reduced scope of effort was developed. The Participating Agency Service Agreement and the revised TOR are included in Part IV, Base Studies. The purpose of this development plan is to provide a conceptual framework for future water resources development decisions in Swaziland in order to enable the 005 to be effective in its negotiations with neighboring countries regarding international rivers.
