    Call to Join the Verlorenvlei Coalition

    TUNGSTEN MINE THREATENS WAY OF LIFE OF THOUSANDS AND PLACES RAMSAR-SITE VERLORENVLEI AT HIGH RISK · We the people of the Verlorenvallei stand as one against a threat which could destroy our way of life and our valley. · We the farm workers, fishermen, farmers and entrepreneurs will not allow the pollution of our air, water or land or loss of our livelihoods for the sake of a greedy few. · We the lovers of nature reject further desecration of the already endangered Verlorenvlei and the unique and wide variety of animals, birds, reptiles and plants which have survived the depredations of humans. · We will protect the rare and largely unexplored rich pre-historical heritage for those who may follow us. · We have formed the Verlorenvlei Coalition; we are growing steadily, please join. The Verlorenvlei Coalition (VC) is a coalition of labour, business, civic organisations, environmental groups and local residents formed to preserve the integrity of the area and its people. We call our valley, which runs from Piketberg to Elands Bay, the Verlorenvallei. THE CHALLENGE: No less than 5 applicants have submitted applications to the DEPARTMENT OF MINING for the right to build an open-cast tungsten and molybdenum mine, one of these 50 hectares in extent and 200 metres deep, in the Moutonshoek Valley, between Piketberg and Elands Bay in the Western Cape. The Moutonshoek is a narrow valley, approximately 17 kilometres long and 3-4 kilometres wide, on the slopes of the Piketberg-mountain. THE VERLORENVLEI COALITION will oppose the proposed mining because: 1. It will destroy productive and profitable farms and detrimentally affect the food security of the Western Cape.

    A paleoenvironmental reconstruction of the Elands Bay area using carbon and nitrogen isotopes in tortoise bone.

The samples range in age from the late Holocene to the terminal Pleistocene. δ15N values are not strongly correlated with δ13C, indicating different drivers of variation in the two isotopes. δ13C and δ15N values are lower between 154-487 cal. BP, which spans the Little Ice Age, compared with 744-1 042 cal.

    Lamberts Bay Area Plan 2017-2022

    LAMBERTS BAY AREA PLAN 2017-2022 1 MESSAGE FROM WARD COUNCILLOR South Africa as nation has held successful and peaceful local government elections on 03 August 2016. These elections were certified to have been free and fair to a large extent. This is clear demonstration of the growth of our young democracy. In accordance with the provisions of the laws that govern the affairs of the municipality, we have embarked upon a process of consultation with the local community with a view to present the IDP and Budget for the period 2017-2022. Chapter 4 of the Municipal Systems Act 32 of 2000 makes community participation in the affairs, programmes and activities of the municipality a legal obligation. The IDP is therefore the culmination of a lengthy process of consultation with the local community. Accordingly, this IDP carries the aspirations of the masses of our community which the 2017/18 Budget must seek to finance. Therefore, this IDP must be seen as a beacon of hope that will continue to guide us over the next financial year in our collective endeavours of building a better life for all our communities. Critical to this is the question of compliance with the laws of the Republic. For an example, before the end of May 2017 we must have presented to Council the final budget for the forthcoming financial year. In this regard, section 24 of the Municipal Finance Management Act 56 of 2003 prescribes that “the final budget must be tabled 30 days before the start of the new financial year. “We remain committed to the realization of the 5 National Key Performance Areas of municipalities, being the following: Good Governance and Public Participation Municipal Transformation and Organisational Development Basic Infrastructure and Service Delivery Local Economic Development Municipal Financial Viability and Management This IDP together with its projects and implementation focus relates strongly to the capital budget.

    HOPEFIELD PRIVATE NATURE RESERVE MANAGEMENT PLAN – AUGUST 2019 HOPEFIELD PRIVATE NATURE RESERVE PROTECTED AREA MANAGEMENT PLAN The acid sands of marine origins and the Malmesbury shales of the Swartland meet at Hopefield. Here, the interplay of soil types and water permeability of these substrates as well as the climatic influence of the nearby Atlantic Ocean leads to unique habitats and many seasonal wetlands. Thus, the area has many interesting endemic and threatened plant taxa and it is no surprise that Hopefield is now renowned for its annual flower show which is run by a passionate and knowledgeable group of local volunteers (Maree and Vromans 2010).
