This is an appeal by the First to Third Appellants against a decision by the First Respondent to issue a Water Use License (hereafter ‘WUL’) (Ref: WUL05/W51A/ACFGIJ/4726) to the Second Respondent. The WUL was issued on 7 July 2016. The WUL authorizes the second respondent to conduct specified water use activities associated with coal mining at Yzermyn underground coal mine, situated outside Wakkerstroom, in the Gert Sibande District Municipality, Mpumalanga Province, Republic of South Africa. The original appeal was lodged on 15 December 2016 and amplified a year later on 1 December 2017. 2. The First and Second Appellants are civil society non-profit environmental organisations. The Third Appellants are the provincial affiliates of AgriSA in the province. They host 35 Farmers' Associations across Mpumalanga promoting farmers interests. 3. The proposed Yzermyn Coal Mine will cover the farms Goedgevonden 95 HT; Portion 1 of Kromhoek 93 HT; Remainder of Kromhoek 93 HT; Portion 1 of Yzermyn 96 HT; and Zoetfontein 94 HT. Both the underground mine and the surface infrastructure corresponds to several water bodies including streams, rivers, springs, and wetlands of various limnology. Among them are channelled valley wetlands, which are valley-bottom wetlands with river channels running through them; and seep wetlands, which are on sloping land dominated by the unidirectional movement of water. Page 3 of 147 4. The area covered by the farms is not a pristine environment in the strict sense of the word. It has been previously disturbed by various anthropogenic activities ranging from crop cultivation, other forms of agriculture, tourism, and historical mining. 5. The appeal was first set down for hearing for on 13 to 15 November 2017. The Notice of Set Down had been issued by the Registrar of the Tribunal on 27 October 2017 (14 days’ notice). The Appellants remonstrated against the 14 days’ notice which fell short of the 21 days prescribed by the Rules of the Water Tribunal. However, it was the Appellants that had been putting considerable pressure on the Chairperson of the Tribunal to set down the appeal as a matter of urgency. On 23 November 2017 the Appellants again requested the Register to set the appeal down for hearing as a matter of urgency. They suggested dates in February 2018. The Registrar issued the second Notice of Set Down on 1 March 2018 for 26 to 28 March 2018. Soon thereafter on 5 March 2018 the Appellants objected to the 26 to 28 March 2018. The Panel set on 28 March 2018 to hear arguments on the postponement application as every other party to the appeal was ready to proceed. A separate ruling was issued after that hearing in which we dismissed the application for postponement and struck the matter off the roster of pending cases. Page 4 of 147 6. Reverting to the facts of the appeal, the WUL granted to the Second Respondent authorized the water uses listed below subject to conditions as contemplated by section 21 of the National Water Act (hereafter ‘the NWA’) read with the specific Annexures containing the special conditions.1 The authorized water uses were: section 21(a)- taking water from a water resource; section 21(c)- impeding or diverting the flow of water in a watercourse; section 21(f)- discharging waste or water containing waste into a water resource through a pipe, canal, sewer or the conduit; section 21 (g)- disposing of waste in a manner which may detrimentally impact on a water resource; section 21(i) -altering the bed, banks course or characteristics of a watercourse; and section 21(j)- removing, discharging or disposing of water found underground.2 7. The water uses in specific detail entail the following: 7.1. impeding or diverting the flow of water in a watercourse (section 21(c) of the NWA) and altering the bed, banks, course or characteristics of a watercourse (section 21(i) of the NWA) pursuant to the construction and operation of the mine and associated infrastructure, including, amongst others: 7.1.1. the construction and operation of underground mining activities and voids on various wetland systems on farms comprising the underground mining area; 7.1.2. the partial destruction of a wetland system on Yzermyn 96 HT: Portion 1 (the surface infrastructure area) pursuant to the construction and operation of a pollution control dam (“PCD”) system; 1 File Number 2, p1365-1415 complete Water Use Licence. 2 File Number 2, p1365-1366 authorised water uses. Page 5 of 147 7.1.3. the construction and operation of surface infrastructure within 500 metres of various wetland systems on Yzermyn 96 HT: Portion 127 (the surface infrastructure area); 7.1.4. the construction and operation of borehole pipelines through various wetland systems on Yzermyn 96 HT, Yzermyn 96 HT: Portion 1, Kromhoek 93 HT, Goedgevonden 95 HT and Vaalbank 74 HT; 7.1.5. the construction and operation of various berms (artificial ridges or embankments),canals, pipelines and clean- and dirty-water flo-drains (drainage systems) through and/or within 500 metres of various wetland systems on Yzermyn 96 HT: Portion 1 (the surface infrastructure area); and 7.1.6. the construction and operation of two access roads through and/or within 500 metres of various wetland systems on Yzermyn 96 HT: Portion 1 (the surface infrastructure area); 7.2. discharging waste or water containing waste into a water resource through a pipe, canal, sewer or other conduit (section 21(f) of the NWA) and disposing of waste in a manner which may detrimentally impact on a water resource (section 21(g) of the NWA) (both of these related to wetlands in the surface infrastructure

    GERT SIBANDE DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY FINAL IDP 2011/12 TO 2013/14 A DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY STRIVING TO EXCEL IN GOOD GOVERNANCE AND QUALITY INFRASTRUCTURE Gert Sibande District Municipality i Foreword by the Executive Mayor It gives me great pleasure to present the Draft Integrated Development Plan for the 2011/12 to 2013/14 Financial Years, in the last year of this Current Term of Office. In reviewing our 2010/11 IDP and subsequently drafting our IDP and Budget respectively for 2011/12 to 2013/14 and beyond, we have consulted quite extensively with our communities in all our constituent Local Municipalities through their varying groupings using our IDP Representative Forum and other IGR structures institutionalised within our Municipality. Culminating from the state of the Nation and state of the Province Addresses respectively, and aforementioned consultation and engagements with varying stakeholders the following Key Development objectives were identified as pertinent in bringing about improved quality of life for our entire populace:- Facilitate creation of more jobs and descent work; Form strategic partnerships in fighting hunger and poverty; Advocate for access to quality education for all our citizens; Ensure proper health care for all our communities; Ensure sustainable development of all rural communities within our jurisdictional area; Harness the building of safer and secure communities To date resounding success has been realised in number of areas, where many of our people are living decent lives as a result of the services provided by the District in collaboration with its social partners. Whilst much has been achieved, there is still much that needs to be done to reverse and ultimately eradicate undesired consequences of underdevelopment, inequality, unemployment, HIV/AIDS and poverty.

    FF F Msukaligwa Local 1e- + Municipality AMENDED 2020 / 2021 IDP ii Foreword by the Executive Mayor Since the dawn of democracy, practitioners of public affairs have been called upon to refine and rationalize the various forms of public engagements to ensure the best outcomes for all stakeholders. Public management and governance has seen a myriad of demands on the rules of engagement, implementation of decisions and accounting for outcomes. Our local government sphere often faces the perennial demands to achieve more with disproportionately meagre resources. This scenario calls for closer interaction and appreciation of priorities as modern society becomes more diverse, not only on cultures or values but also on generational tastes and expectations. Maximum attendance, meaningful participation, rational expectations, are virtues than still need to be cultivated further if we are to emerge from consultations with the requisite outcome of our consultation. The advent of the Corona-virus and the subsequent declaration of the lockdown, might put a damper on our consultation. Public participation as we know it has been restricted to video conferencing or other form of electronic communication. This method has a potential of polarising communities and create some form of unnecessary 'class struggle'. We all appreciate the dire choices we faced and have left no stone unturned in ensuring that all forms of communication are utilized to bring the message of consultation home. Inadvertently, the lockdown regulations confined residents to their homes and it could be assumed that they were therefore available to listen to the radio and had the time to read the publications we sent out.

    DRAFT IDP 2010/2011 ii Foreword by the Executive Mayor The Constitution, Act 108 of 1996 requires municipalities to „promote the social and economic development of the people and communities. We have been entrusted with providing basic services on continuous basis to both rural and urban areas, and also to ensure that development in these communities is sustainable. Our IDP takes a closer look at creating an enabling environment for local as well as international investors, thus contributing to economic growth and job creation. This is in line with the provincial growth and development strategy. The IDP is a key document on daily work and programme of the municipality. The Spatial Development Plan is an important part of the IDP. The SDP refer to the planning choices that municipality need to make when it comes to densification, the encroachment of development and the location of new settlement. The Municipality has embarked on a process of ensuring the implementation of key priority policies on Women, Youth and People with disabilities empowerment and Gender equity, HIV/AIDS, Broad Based Black Economic Empowerment, Employment equity and Transformation, Skills development and Good governance. All policies and relevant implementation framework have been drawn within the prescripts of national and provincial legislation. We acknowledge the challenges of service delivery in the last decade and that we have not been able to meet all the needs identified as priorities due to budgetary constraints. We however wish to mobilize all our resources in a focused, transparent and equitable manner in order to address the pressing service delivery challenges and also request for your participation and contribution.
