Dear Sir / Madam
INVITATION TO COMMENT: BASIC ASSESSMENT FOR THE PROPOSED ESTABLISHMENT
OF AN INDUSTRIAL AND COMMERCIAL TOWNSHIP ON PORTION 102 OF THE FARM
DOORNKLOOF 391 JR IN GILLIEMEAD, KUNGWINI LOCAL MUNICIPALITY, GAUTENG
This letter serves to rectify our previous correspondence dated
Wednesday, 23 July 2008. Please be advised that the project description
on the locality map was incorrect. Attached, please find the correct
locality map.
Urban Dynamics Inc proposes to establish an Industrial and Commercial
development on Portion 102 of the Farm Doornkloof 391 JR in Gilliemead,
North East of Clayville between Johannesburg and Pretoria, west of the
R21, Kungwini Local Municipality, Gauteng.
Please note that a separate Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is
being conducted for the properties located directly south of Portion
102. The aforementioned EIA process is currently in its Scoping Phase
and the draft EIA report will be made available for public review in
the near future. Please note that although two separate applications
are being submitted to the environmental authorities for their
decision, it forms part of one proposed development; i.e. should these
two environmental applications be approved, it will result in one
industrial and commercial township being developed.
The proposed development will involve the development of associated
infrastructure such as roads, water services and waste removal.
Urban Dynamics Inc appointed Strategic Environmental Focus (Pty) Ltd
(SEF) as an independent environmental consultancy to facilitate this
Basic Assessment (BA) including the public participation process. In
terms of Sections 24 and 24(D) of the National Environmental Management
Act, 1998 (Act No. 107 of 1998), as amended, and as read with
Government Notices R385 (Regulations 22 – 26) and R386, a Basic
Assessment is required for the following listed activities:
Item 1(k) The construction of facilities or infrastructure,
including associated structures or infrastructure, for the bulk
transportation of sewage and water, including storm water, in pipelines
with an internal diameter of 0.36m or more; or a peak throughput of 120
litres per second or more.
Item 1(l) The construction of facilities or infrastructure,
including associated structures or infrastructure, for the transmission
and distribution of electricity above ground with a capacity of more
than 33 kilovolts and less than 120 kilovolts.
Item 1(m) The construction of facilities or infrastructure,
including associated structures or infrastructure, for any purpose in
the one in ten year flood line of a river or stream, or within 32
metres from the bank of a river or stream where the flood line is
unknown, excluding purposes associated with existing residential use,
but including – (i) canals; (ii) channels; (iii) bridges; (iv)
dams; and (v) weirs.
Item 1(s) The construction of facilities or infrastructure,
including associated structures or infrastructure, for the treatment of
effluent, wastewater or sewage with an annual throughput capacity of
more than 2 000 cubic metres but less than 15 000 cubic metres.
Item 12 The transformation or
removal of indigenous vegetation of 3 hectares or more or of any size
where the transformation or removal would occur within a critically
endangered or an endangered ecosystem listed in terms of section 52 of
the National Environmental Management: Biodiversity Act, 2004 (Act No.
10 of 2004).
Item 15 The construction of a
road that is wider than 4 metres or that has a reserve wider than 6
metres, excluding roads that fall within the ambit of another listed
activity or which are access roads of less than 30 metres long.
Item 19 The development of a new
facility or the transformation of an existing facility for the
conducting of manufacturing processes, warehousing, bottling,
packaging, or storage, which, including associated structures or
infrastructure, occupies an area of 1 000 square metres or more outside
an existing area zoned for industrial purposes.
A Basic Assessment is being conducted to ensure that the environmental
impacts that may be associated with the proposed development are taken
into consideration. Interested and affected parties (I&APs) have an
opportunity to comment by providing issues of concern and/or
suggestions for enhanced benefits and/or alternatives; and to ensure
that the Competent Authority, the Gauteng Department of Agriculture,
Conservation and Environment (GDACE), has sufficient information to
make a decision.
Should you wish to participate in the BA by contributing issues of
concerns/comments, please register as an I&AP by completing the
enclosed Registration and Comment Sheet on or before Monday, 25 August
2008. (PLEASE CONTACT SEF FOR COMMENT SHEETS - Khomotjo Kwenaite
at Tel: (012) 349 1307)
Meanwhile, should you have any questions, or would like to obtain more
information, please feel free to contact myself, or Khomotjo Kwenaite
