ANNEXURE 7 Corrected Coordinates

Please note:

The GDARD Online Submission website incorrectly rounded up the coordinates for the site. The coordinates on the online system are therefore incorrect. The corrected coordinates are provided below.

25⁰ 57’ 59.47”ES

Corrected Coordinates 27⁰ 55’ 21.14” E

ANNEXURE 8 Correspondence with GDARD Regarding Coordinates

Please note:

The GDARD Online Submission website incorrectly rounded up the coordinates for the site. Officials from GDARD were therefore contacted and it was agreed that the online submission could take place and the corrected coordinates would be provided as a separate annexure (see Annexure 7). The correspondence regarding this is included below.

Dear Vanessa

Yes, it is acceptable to leave the co-ordinates as is and upload an extra annexure with the corrected coordinates. Please make a note on the hard copy of the application forms that the EIA online system is not saving the seconds of the co-ordinates correctly and attach the correct co-ordinates as a separate Annexure.

Yours sincerely

Dear Ms Stippel,

With regards to submission, Justine Chan can give guidance. I do not exercise control in that area. Ms Chan has escalated the issue to the service provider.

Yours Sincerely,

Good day Marc,

Thank you for your response. I did try that yesterday before I emailed and again now but unfortunately it does not seem to be the problem. I have also deleted the property and added it again, logged in and out, tried adding four decimals and tried from a different computer. I have used to the system before and didn’t have a problem…so I really am not sure what the issue is.

As a short term solution, would it be acceptable if we leave the coordinates as is and then upload an extra annexure with the corrected coordinates? We aim to submit the Basic Assessment Report and application form on Monday.

Kind regards,

Dear Ms Stippel,

Can you try using commas “ , “ instead of decimal points “ . “ in the seconds area. I have noted that in excel some computers accept points and others commas for representing decimal numbers. This is set in the windows setting for a computer. This could just be that issue and not a system problem.

Please let us know if it works.

Yours Sincerely,

Good afternoon,

I am in the process of uploading a new application form however I am having an issue with the coordinates.

I add the coordinates based on my project in the format of degrees, minutes and seconds (see figure 1 below). However, as soon as I save and move to the next page, it rounds the coordinates up to 60.00” which is incorrect (see figure 2).

Figure 1: Coordinates as entered

3 Figure 2: Coordinates as automatically rounded up

Please could someone assist with this as I have not had this issue previously and need to submit this application form as soon as possible.

Kind regards,
