Septic tanks and drainage in Rustenburg

Rustenburg is platinum country, and rapid mining growth has left large areas off the sewer or served by overloaded networks. Suburbs like Safari Gardens and Cashan are connected, but smallholdings along the Magaliesberg foothills, farms around Kroondal and Mooinooi, and peri-urban settlements near Phokeng and Boitekong depend on septic tanks, pit conversions and conservancy tanks. Mine contractors and construction camps need bulk tanks and portable toilets. Heavy black turf clay swells in the wet season and cracks in the dry, which breaks drains and tanks. Honey sucker operators work from Rustenburg and Kroondal, and lodges on the Magaliesberg run treatment plants.
