  • 6 the Environments Associated with the Proposed Alternative Sites
    6 THE ENVIRONMENTS ASSOCIATED WITH THE PROPOSED ALTERNATIVE SITES The purpose of this section is to describe the environments associated with the proposed alternative sites. The information contained herein was extracted from the relevant specialist studies. Please refer to Section 3.5 for a list of all the relevant specialists and their fields of expertise and to Appendix E for the original specialist reports. 6.1 Brazil Site 6.1.1 Physical (a) Location The Brazil site is situated in the Kleinzee / Nolloth region of the Northern Cape, within the jurisdiction of the Nama-Khoi Municipality ( Figure 16). The site has the following co-ordinates: 29°48’51.40’’S and 17°4’42.21’’E. The Brazil site is situated approximately 500 km north of Cape Town and 100 km west-southwest of Springbok. Kleinzee is located 15 km north, Koiingnaas is 90 km south and Kamieskroon is located 90 km southeast of the Brazil site. Figure 16: Location of the proposed Brazil site in relation to the surrounding areas (Bulman, 2007) Nuclear 1 EIA: Final Scoping Report Eskom Holdings Limited 6-1 Issue 1.0 / July 2008 (b) Topography The topography in the Brazil region is largely flat, with only a gentle slope down to the coast. The coast is composed of both sandy and rocky shores. The topography is characterised by a small fore-dune complex immediately adjacent to the coast with the highest elevation of approximately nine mamsl. Further inland the general elevation depresses to about five mamsl in the middle of the study area and then gradually rises towards the east.

    LORMP – Unlocking the Ecotourism Potential of the River, Draft October 2008 4.3.11.2 Sensitivities Despite being on the edge of the Sperrgebiet Restricted Area, proposed as a possible protected area within Namibia’s national conservation estate, the riparian zone’s integrity has been largely transformed through mining, agriculture and settlement, with the degree of transformation ranging from moderate to total. Sensitivities can be expected regarding uncontrolled access to the Sperrgebiet, the various mines along this river section and the farms between Brandkaros and the bridge. These sensitivities need to be addressed if the ecotourism potential along this river section is to be unlocked. Additional aspects that must be included in the planning is the influence of wind, making most of this area difficult for rowing and rafting, exacerbated by the flat gradient resulting in the river meandering over the coastal plan. The lack of a well structured tourism industry along this river section, as a result of ad hoc and individual developments in the past, and the lack of an established brand, since this river section is not in the national park, in the Sperrgebiet, and not on the coast, the area is largely unknown. The lack of benefits to the broader Richtersveld Community should be addressed, in an a manner that is tangible and measurable. The tourism product base should also be assessed and possibly diversified, since the current product base is limited largely to a localized market, and occasionally 4x4 guests en route to the Richtersveld or Namibia via the pont at Sendelingsdrift. Despite the intentions of the Poverty Relief Programme, the infrastructural development support at Sanddrift and Stofbakkies, seems to be experiencing challenges from an occupancy and marketing perspective.

OUTLINE OF THE DEVELOPMENT The proposed project entails the replacement of the existing water supply pipeline from Henkries to Steinkopf (Nama Khoi Municipality) in the Namaqualand region of the Northern Cape Province (Figures 1& 2). Henkries is located about 3 kms south of the Orange River, while Steinkopf is located 25 kms north of Springbok, which is about 550 kms north of Cape Town, alongside the N7. A separate application for a new water supply pipeline between Bulletrap and Okiep and between Rooiwinkel and Nababeep has already been subjected to an archaeological impact and scoping assessment (Kaplan 2011a, b).Historically, both Okiep and Nababeep are important towns in the history of copper mining in Namaqualand (Smallberger 1995). The larger project ultimately entails replacing the entire ± 200 km network of water supply pipelines in the region, which extends all the way to Kleinzee on the Richtersveld coast. The existing 200 km long water supply pipeline between Henkries and Kleinzee was installed in 1973 and its condition has deteriorated rapidly since 1992. The pipeline is the main potable water supply pipeline from the Orange River that supplies numerous small towns in the region, including Henkries, Steinkopf, Bulletrap, Nababeep, Okiep, Carolousberg, Concordia, Springbok and Kleinzee. The steel and asbestos pipes have an average age of about 38 years, and most of the distribution pipes are currently in need of urgent repair and replacement as a result of frequent breakages and leakages.

  • The Battle of Sandfontein: the Role and Legacy of Major- General Sir Henry Timson Lukin
    Scientia Militaria, South African Journal of Military Studies, Vol 34, Nr 2, 2006. doi: 10.5787/34-2-24 65 THE BATTLE OF SANDFONTEIN: THE ROLE AND LEGACY OF MAJOR- 1 GENERAL SIR HENRY TIMSON LUKIN Rodney C. Warwick2 Diocesan College, Cape Town Introduction Commemorative statues, plaques and monuments from decades past remain widespread across both the urban and rural South Africa landscape. Included amongst these is the stone likeness of General Tim Lukin in Cape Town: just one of such structures intended to encapsulate the emotions and memories of those who commissioned it. The South African involvement at Delville Wood ninety years ago would still resonate with some of the country’s population; those who at some stage have delved into reading up on the history of our participation in the First World War. However mention of the Battle of Sandfontein during the Union invasion of German South West Africa in 1914 to the same reasonably historically literate grouping, would from the larger proportion of them, most probably elicit an admittance of ignorance. Only the well-read enthusiast of South African military history would be aware of Lukin’s roles at both Delville Wood and Sandfontein, let alone how the latter engagement constituted one of the bleakest moments in the General’s career. This article revives debate about this long forgotten First World War military clash in Africa: the first full set battle-piece in which the two year old Union Defence Force was involved, and which resulted in a defeat for the South African forces. It also investigates the role of General Lukin therein, and how culpability for 1 This paper was presented at the 4th War and Society in Africa Conference: Strategy, Generalship and Command in Southern Africa: Past, Present, Future, held at the South African Military Academy, Saldanha, 4-6 September 2003.

  • Proposed Aggeneis-Paulputs 400 Kv Transmission Powerline and Substation Upgrades, Namaqua & Siyanda Districts, Northern Cape Province
    PALAEONTOLOGICAL HERITAGE ASSESSMENT: DESKTOP STUDY Proposed AggeneIs-Paulputs 400 kV TransmIssion PowerlIne and SubstatIon Upgrades, Namaqua & SIyanda DistrIcts, Northern Cape ProvInce John E. Almond PhD (Cantab.) Natura Viva cc, PO Box 12410 Mill Street, Cape Town 8010, RSA [email protected] November 2017 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Eskom is proposing to construct a new 400 kV transmission powerline of about 100 km length between the existing Aggeneis substation near Aggeneys to the existing Paulputs substation near Pofadder, Namaqua & Siyanda Districts, Northern Cape Province. Three route alignments (Corridors 1, 2 & 3) are currently under consideration, with a possible short deviation (3A) in the case of Corridor 3. The electrical infrastructure project will also entail upgrading the existing Aggeneis and Paulputs Substations with concomitant small increases in their footprints. The powerline and substation study area is underlain at depth by igneous and metamorphic basement rocks of Precambrian age as well as by a mantle of varied superficial deposits such as aeolian sands, gravels and alluvium of the Pleistocene to Recent Kalahari Group. In terms of palaeontological sensitivity outcrop areas of basement rocks are negligible while the overlying Late Caenozoic superficial deposits are generally of low to very low sensitivity. No highly-sensitive palaeontological sites or no-go areas have been identified within the 400 kV powerline and substation study area. The ancient Koa River Palaeovalley area near Aggenys, largely buried beneath younger cover sands (Fig. 1), may feature important Tertiary fossils at depth but these are very unlikely to be directly impacted by the shallow excavations envisaged for the present electrical infrastructure project.
