Palmiet River ((アフリカーンス語:Palmietrivier)) is a river located in the Western Cape province South Africa. The Palmiet River is a typical Western Cape river, experiencing winter rainfall and it is important for the Western Cape Water Supply System. It has a small catchment area of 500 km2, flows through the expanse of the Elgin Valley, and reaches the ocean through an estuary.〔(Palmiet River Estuary )〕 This river has five irrigation and hydro-power dams along its length, and provides water for agricultural and industrial uses, as well as to the city of Cape Town.〔(Palmiet river system )〕 It is unclear why there has been an apparent increase in flow over the last 30 years. This river is named after the plant known as Palmiet ''(Prionium serratum)'' and should not be confused with the Palmiet River near Durban, 〔(Palmiet Nature Reserve Flooding )〕 or the Palmiet River which is a tributary of the Keurbooms River. ==Dams in this River== *Arieskraal Dam *Eikenhof Dam *Kogelberg Dam *Rockview Dam *Transpalmiet Dam 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Palmiet River」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
