Northern Cape PSDF Volume 2 Office of the Premier & Department of Rural Development & Land Reform December 2011 From the table below it is evident that in 2007, more than 72% of all households had their refuse removed by the local authority and/or private company. This estimate is 10% higher than the estimate given by the Northern Cape Province. However, it is clear from the Community Survey that only 3% have no refuse disposal, with Frances Baard having the largest households with no refuge removal. Furthermore, in general the refuse disposal facilities have increased for all district municipalities from 2001 to 2007.
