The government intends to build an animal disease control fence in the ||Kharas Region that will stretch from Klein Manasse, Aroab Village, south of Keetmanshoop to Naute Dam and then continue to the Fish River Canyon.
This was revealed in a veterinary public notice government issued.
A major rescue mission is being mounted in the Fish River Canyon to rescue close to a hundred hikers trapped in the canyon by rising waters.
NamWater has opened the sluices of Naute Dam to release water after its water level surpassed its capacity of 100%.
All dams in Namibia are at 71.4% capacity. This represents a drop of 0.4% from the 71.8% recorded last week.
This information is contained in Namwater's Weekly Dam Bulletin.
