  • A Journey to Limpopo Wetlands
    DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, ENVIRONMENT AND TOURISM STATE OF WETLANDS IN THE LIMPOPO PROVINCE Directorate: Biodiversity Management C/o Suid & Voortrekker Street, POLOKWANE, 0700, Private Bag X9484, POLOKWANE, 0700 Tel: (015) 293 8300, Fax: (015) 295 4120 Website: http/www.limpopo.gov.za 1. Introduction Ramsar Convention on wetlands conservation and wise use was adopted in Ramsar city, Iran in 1971 as contribution towards achieving sustainable development throughout the world. Ramsar Convention also works hand in hand with other convention such as Convention on biological diversity and other related organizations. As contracting party (country member) of Ramsar convention South Africa had designated about 12 wetlands as Ramsar site or site of international importance. Nysvley Nature Reserve and Makuleke floodplain are the two Ramsar sites in the Limpopo Province. According to Ramsar Convention wetlands are area of marshes, fen, peatland, wet grassland, lakes, estuaries, mangroves and coral reefs, whether natural or artificial, permanent or temporary, with water that is static or flowing, fresh, brackish or salt, including areas of marine water the depth of which at low tide does not exceed six metres. Wetlands have different names following the four dominant languages in the Limpopo province, nhlangasi (in Tsonga), Mohlaka or Monyuka (in Pedi) Maroroma or Matzhava (in Venda) and Vlei (in Afrikaans) Conservation, wise use and management of wetlands requires partnership of relevant government departments (e.g. Agriculture, Water Affairs and Forestry, Environmental Affairs and Tourism), local authorities (Municipalities and traditional), Non-governmental organizations (e.g. Working for Wetland, Mondi wetlands project) and other relevant research institutions. As a results wetland stakeholders in the Limpopo Province network and interact through the Limpopo wetlands Forum which is informally coordinated and chaired by SANBI (Working for Wetland) World Wetlands Day is celebrated every year on 2nd of February throughout South Africa and international community.

    JUST AND EQUITABLE COMPENSATION FOR EXPROPRIATION OF MOTLHOTLO CUSTOMARY LANDS ILC’S DATABASE OF GOOD PRACTICES LEARN, SHARE AND BE INSPIRED! Picture: ©ILC/ Country: South Africa Principal Organisation: Nkuzi Platinumbelt ABSTRACT Anglo American Platinum (Amplats), a platinum offer, demanding more just and equitable mining company, targeted the Motlhotlo compensation. As a result of the community’s community’s land for the expansion of mining resistance efforts, Amplats renegotiated the operations in Mokopane, South Africa. However, resettlement deal. They relocated the remaining Amplats did not seek the community’s free, families to better settlement areas with modern prior and informed consent in the mining three-bedroom houses, two communal farms licence application process. Amplats bypassed for crop production and livestock production, their obligation to meaningfully engage with schools and hospitals. Further, Amplats invested the Motlhotlo community by negotiating with in small local businesses supplying the mine the Department of Mineral Resources and with water, and trained locals for more technical traditional leaders only. Some families refused and stable jobs at the mine, thus securing to accept the company’s meagre compensation local livelihoods. ILC COMMITMENTS PROTECTED LAND EQUAL LAND RIGHTS FOR WOMEN RIGHTS DEFENDERS EFFECTIVE ACTIONS AGAINST LAND GRABBING However, the Department of Mineral Resources (DMR) Development Act28 of 2002 (MPRDA) that grants the COMPETENCIES and mining companies often bypass the consent DMR the power to act as the custodian of mineral provision by excluding the mining-affected communities resources on behalf of all South Africans, the DMR AREAS SKILLS and merely consulting traditional leaders in the erroneously awards licences even when the community application process for mineral rights.

  • Shakati Private Game Reserve in Malaria-Free Waterberg/Vaalwater -Only 2 Hours from Pretoria
    Shakati Private Game Reserve in Malaria-free Waterberg/Vaalwater -only 2 hours from Pretoria Waterberg. There is so much to see and do…. Waterberg is the area of magnificent views, panoramic savannah and bush landscapes, spectacular mountains and cliffs, crystal clear streams and an unbelievable abundance of wild animals, trees and flowers. Game viewing in the Waterberg area is absolutely fantastic and recognised among the best in the country –hence the Waterberg is one of the preferred eco-tourism destination in South Africa. Furthermore Waterberg with its unspoilt nature has been designated as UNESCO “Savannah Biosphere Reserve” –the first in Southern Africa. And Waterberg is MALARIA-free… Marakele National Park Shakati Private Game Reserve is hidden away on the lush banks of the Mokolo river in the deep heart of the untamed Waterberg bushveld paradise. Near Vaalwater and only 2 hours drive from Pretoria. Time spent at Shakati Game Reserve is about getting away from city life, work, traffic and stress. It is about peace and tranquillity, clean fresh air and clear skies with the brightest stars you have probably ever seen. It is about being quiet and listen to the jackal calling at night, to the paradise flycatcher singing in the morning. It is about seeing and walking with the animals, touching the fruits of the bush willow -and wonder about nature. It is about quietly sitting at the water hole watching game and taking life easy Its time to leave the city sounds, the hustle, the bustle and find some place that speaks to you who you really are inside.

  • Ltd and Eskom Transmission a Heritage Scoping
    Prepared for: SAVANNAH ENVIRONMENTAL (PTY) LTD AND ESKOM TRANSMISSION A HERITAGE SCOPING ASSESSMENT REPORT FOR ESKOM'S MOKOPANE INTEGRATION PROJECT BETWEEN POLOKWANE, MOKOPANE AND LEPHALALE IN THE LIMPOPO PROVINCE OF SOUTH AFRICA Prepared by: Dr Julius CC Pistorius Archaeologist and Heritage Management Consultant 352 Rosemary Street Lynnwood 0081 Pretoria Tel and fax 012 3485668 Cell 0825545449 November 2008 Member ASAPA EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Eskom is expanding transmission and generation infrastructure to ensure a sufficient generation capacity to sustain South Africa's economic growth. Eskom transmission therefore intends to implement the Mokopane Integration Project in the Limpopo Province of South Africa. The Mokopane Integration Project involves the following: • The construction of the new 400/132kV Mokopane substation on one of four possible sites. • The integration of the new substation into the transmission system by looping-in and -out of one of the existing Matimba-Witkop 400kV lines (i.e. two lines running parallel for a distance of approximately 10km). • Construction of a new 765kV power line between the Delta substation in Lephalale and the new Mokopane substation (approximately 150km). • Construction of a new 765kV power line between the Delta substation in Lephalale and the Witkop substation (approximately 200km). • Construction of a new 765kV power line between the new Mokopane substation and the existing Witkop substation (approximately 60km). • Construction of a 765kV power line between the Delta substation and the Medupi power station. • Associated works to integrate the new Mokopane substation and transmission lines into the transmission grid. Eskom's proposed Mokopane Integration Project may impact on South Africa’s ‘national estate’ which comprises a wide range of heritage resources, some of which may occur in Mokopane Integration Project Area (see Part 3, 'The National Estate').
