[QUOTE="Queen, post: 90191, member: 27"] That budget bar leveled up by nearly US$25 million. Kunzvi Dam has climbed from US$108.2 million to roughly US$133 million, with John Tangayi, who works as assistant resident engineer, pinning the jump mainly on replacement housing and grave relocation. Rather than handing displaced households cash, Zimbabwe’s government is building new homes under a revised resettlement setup. Out of 435 planned houses, crews have finished 268, while 90 residential plots recently became available for building. A US$500,000 effort will remove 534 sets of remains and place them in new burial sites before reservoir water arrives, honoring requests from local chiefs. Nearby, Juru Growth Point is 14 kilometers north, with the dam spanning the Nyagui River. At full scale, the reservoir will store 158.4 million cubic meters across 985 hectares, stretch 8.5 kilometers, and tap a 730-square-kilometer catchment. Its 50.2-meter wall, 130-meter spillway, Nora River balancing dam, 1,000-millimeter steel pipes, planned mini-hydropower station, and tarred 14-kilometer Njiru-Kunzvi road support water, irrigation, electricity, and rural commerce around Harare. Reliable yearly yield is about 70 million cubic meters, with water reaching 45 meters deep. [/QUOTE]
