During the Nelson Mandela Bay drought many homes in Kariega and Despatch drilled boreholes, and smallholdings around Kruisrivier and along the Groendal road pump for gardens, livestock and vegetables. The motor industry is the town's big employer, and the plant and its suppliers run process water, cooling, fire and sump pumps. The Swartkops River can flood after heavy rain, and low parts of Despatch and the town have taken water in the past.
