Map No. 5 which is lodged with the Director of Water Affairs in Gaborone.

2. KASANE/KAZUNGULA

Commencing at point "A" (approximate co-ordinates Y=-26 500, X=1968100) being a point on the right bank of the Chobe river; thence southwards to point "B" (approximate co-ordinates Y=-26 500, X= 1970500); thence westwards to point "C" (approximate co-ordinates Y=-24 000, X=1970500); thence northwards to point "D" (approximate co-ordinates Y=-24000, X=1969000); thence westwards to point "E" (approximate co-ordinates Y=-18000, X=1969000; thence southwards to point "F" (approximates co-ordinates Y=-18 000; X=1970500); thence westwards to point "G" (approximate co-ordinates Y=-14850, X=1970500) being a point on the right bank of a minor channel of the Chobe river; thence upstream along the right bank of the said minor channel until it reaches the main channel of the Chobe river to point "A" of commencement as will more fully appear on Plan RO - 39a lodged with the Department of Surveys and Lands.
