The objective of the project is to generate electricity to feed into the National Grid by installing solar power plants (and associated substations). The proposed plants are regarded as a listed activity in terms of the Environmental Impact Assessment Regulations released on the 18th of June, 2010 and promulgated on the 2nd of August, 2010, and thus require an Environmental Impact Assessment. SiVEST Environmental Division has been appointed as independent consultants to undertake the EIA on Eskom‟s behalf. The proposed project involves the construction of a 50 MW PV/CPV and 100 MW CSP plant. Due to the licensing process that needs to be undertaken by Mainstream, it is likely that the project will be phased with the construction of the PV occurring first followed by the CSP project. The construction of a CSP plant requires the use of large amounts of water. In order to reduce this impact on the environment, the project proposes the use of waste water from the De Aar Municipal Waste Water Treatment Works as opposed to using fresh water from a borehole or river. The proposed project is required to improve electricity supply to the Eskom Grid and to assist in achieving the Government‟s mandate for the establishment of renewable energy generation facilities. The proposed project involves the construction a CSP and PV/CPV plant. Layout alternatives have been investigated and these relate to the location of the associated infrastructure on the site. These are illustrated below: MAINSTREAM RENEWABLE POWER prepared by: SiVEST Environmental Draft Environmental Impact Report Revision No. 1 23 May 2011 Page 5 C:\Liesl 2011\PROJECTS\CSP 10 May 2011\De Aar Draft EIR rev 1 - 13 May 11 LK.docx Figure i: Site layout alternatives The site is characterized by shrublands which are generally dominated by dwarf karoo shrubs and grasses. The site was found to be in a disturbed condition, most likely due to sheep grazing which is known to take place in the area as well as construction activities associated with the secure care centre. Several specialist studies were conducted for the EIR Phase as stipulated in the Plan of Study for EIA. These included: . Biodiversity (including fauna, flora and avi-fauna) Assessment . Surface Water Impact Assessment . Groundwater Study . Noise Impact Assessment . Visual Impact Assessment . Heritage Assessment . Socio-economic Impact Assessment (incorporating tourism) .

  • General Description of the Environment
    Environmental Scoping Study for the proposed extension of the 765 kV Hydra Substation and the proposed construction of an additional 765 kV Transmission power line between the Hydra and Gamma Substations, Northern Cape Province 6. GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE STUDY AREA ENVIRONMENT The existing Hydra Substation and Gamma Substations lie approximately 130 km apart, and are separated by a generally flat landscape, interrupted in the northern section by high broken ground and small ridges, and the Bulberg and Horseshoe Ridges in the south close to the Gamma Substation site. The broader study area falls within the Northern Cape Province and extends from the existing Hydra Substation near De Aar to the south near Victoria West, where the Gamma Substation is located. 6.1 Topography The study area is located within a generally flat area interrupted at intervals by a number of hills and ridges. The height above sea level, of the study area ranges from 1300 m to 1800 m. Prominent ridges within the study area the include Bulberg Ridge, located north of the Gamma Substation site and the Horseshoe Ridge located in the south close to the Gamma Substation site. Other ridges and hills in the study area include the Platberg, Nooinberg, Groot and the Tafelberg ridge. There are no ridges located within the proposed 80 m servitude. 6.2 Climatic Conditions Based on the information recorded in the Victoria West area, the average annual rainfall for the Victoria West region is 328 mm. The maximum total rainfall recorded in one day is 131 mm. Average annual rainfall for the De Aar region as recorded at the De Aar weather station is 331,4 mm with a total maximum rainfall recorded in one day of 112 mm.

  • Paper Number: 3492 MARKET DEVELOPMENT and SUPPORT of MINERAL BASED SMME’S in the NORTHERN CAPE PROVINCE
    Paper Number: 3492 MARKET DEVELOPMENT AND SUPPORT OF MINERAL BASED SMME’s IN THE NORTHERN CAPE PROVINCE Modiga, A., Rasmeni S.K., Mokubedi, I., and Auchterlonie, A Small Scale Mining and Beneficiation Division, Mintek, Randburg South Africa [email protected] For some time the South African government has been advocating the advancement of Small, Medium and Micro-sized Enterprises (SMMEs) through the prioritisation of entrepreneurship as the catalyst to achieving economic growth, development and self-sustainability. Mintek has undertaken a project that is aimed at supporting the SMMEs in the mining industry by researching the semi-precious gemstone mineral potential in the Northern Cape Province. The project provided training on safe mining methods and the beneficiation of the mineral resources through value-addition programmes (stone cutting and polishing as well as jewellery manufacturing) by the establishment of centres in the province. This will encourage a level of poverty alleviation in this region through the creation of employment in the small scale minerals, mining and manufacturing sector. Preliminary field investigations show that certain communities, especially in the Prieska and surrounding area, mine various types of semi-precious gemstone. Of notable importance are tiger’s eye deposits in the Prieska area, Griekwastad and Niekerkshoop. Mining is mainly seasonal and these miners lack appropriate tools and machinery to conduct mining efficiently. Most of the communities are characterised by low literacy levels and the miners have no access to financing or credit from formal financial institutions for them to finance their operational requirements. The lack of a formal or established market for the semi-precious stones such as tiger’s eye results in the exploitation of miners.
