Digital Terrestrial Television Infrastructure Rollout Digital Terrestrial Television Infrastructure Rollout Environmental Impact Assessment - Nakop - 1 1. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT: NAKOP 1.1 INTRODUCTION The farm Nakop is privately owned, belonging to Mr and Mrs Tonnemacher. The farm is located approximately 5km east of the Namibian Border post and approximately 6km east of the nearest settlement which is called Ariamsvlei. The presence of the Namibian border post en route to South Africa contributes to a large average number of tourists passing through the town annually. 1.2 RATIONALE FOR SITE The position of the existing microwave tower at Nakop has very good coverage even beyond the Namibian border into South Africa, covering large parts of the south-eastern extremities of Namibia (Figure 1-1). This microwave tower is however very visible from the B3 road to South Africa. For this reason the proposed site is located close to the existing infrastructure but further back from the edge of the plateau to ensure that it is not quite as visible as the existing infrastructure. Figure 1-1: Predicted coverage of the existing microwave tower at Nakop. Digital Terrestrial Television Infrastructure Rollout – NBC EIA - Nakop August 2013 2 1.3 SITE DESCRIPTION Ariamsvlei is located at the foot of a plateau and as one approaches the Orange River approximately 40km south of the town, there is a sharp decrease in elevation. The surrounding area forms part of the Nama Karoo biome and comprises of a combination of small succulents and grass species. Although not particularly high in faunal diversity, the rocky side slopes of the plateau are an optimal niche for the occurrence of a variety of reptiles and birds. During the site visit the proposed site for the erection of the NBC transmitter was investigated. The position of the proposed site in relation to other landmarks is indicated in Error! Reference source not found.: Figure 1-2: Position of the proposed site investigated to put up a NBC mast at the Nakop site. Digital Terrestrial Television Infrastructure Rollout – NBC EIA - Nakop August 2013 3 An assessment form was completed during the site visit based on the visual observations and technical information available. Below follows the completed assessment form for Nakop, highlighting information of the proposed site.

If yes, Not more than 2 km then the assessment of the proposed location for the power line should be included in the assessment of the site for the mast.

A Vegetation Describe the natural vegetation on the site Dwarf shrubland with some protected plant species at the (e.g. dwarf-shrubland). base of the mountain. e.g. Boscia albutrunca and Parkinsonia Africana. B Birds Is the area likely to be sensitive for birds No (i.t.o. Cliffs, Ridges, possible flight paths, trees, water sources)? C Reptiles Is the area likely to be sensitive for reptiles No (e.g. rocky outcrops)? D Archaeology Take a picture facing towards the proposed None site. E Surface Is there any surface water sources located Orange River – approximately 40 km south of site Water close to the proposed site (e.g. Rivers, Pans, dams, farms dams, oshanas, etc.)? Estimate the distance from the site. Are there any signs of a wetland located None close to the proposed site (e.g. mottled soil, grass with plumes, reeds, two-tone vegetation, standing water, birdlife)? Estimate the distance from the site. 4 Visual Consider the aesthetic value of the area (Is it Aesthetic value of the area is not high. located in a scenic area, what are the lines of sight, are there tourism activities in the area?). Identify possible sensitive receptors (e.g. Owner of the farm, B3 road users, neighbouring farmers neighbours, road users, tourism ventures etc.) If a new road will be constructed to the site, In view of the largest group of sensitive receptors – what will the visual impact be? (E.g. will it be tourist route highly visible or will it be out of sight for the largest group of sensitive receptors). Consider the following: *The potential location of a development on Site is located further back from the tip of the plateau and landform features within the landscape will is therefore less visible from the ground. The tip of the influence the visual absorption capacity.

For example, if a location is lower than the majority of the immediately surrounding landscape it will be less visible and intrusive than a location which is generally higher than the immediate surrounds. * A potential tower location will be easier to On top of a mountain “hide” in a very rugged/diverse landscape and more difficult to do so if the landscape is more homogenous, such as a plain. 5 Social Describe the surrounding community and North - farmland, East - farmland, South - existing tower, context land uses (e.g. farm land, town lands, West - farmland, Ariamsvlei, Namibian border post residential area etc.).

Digital Terrestrial Television Infrastructure Rollout – NBC EIA - Nakop August 2013 6 1.4 PUBLIC PARTICIPATION On-site public participation was done by consulting with the Karas Regional Counsellor, Hon. Ephraim, at his office in Noordoewer. The two farmers who might be affected by the proposed project, namely Mr Tonnemacher (owner of farm Nakop) and Mr Strauss (owner of farm Ukamas) were consulted on site during which the proposed project was explained and the farmers were given the opportunity to raise comments and concerns. Both of the farmers seemed keen on giving their cooperation. The consulted members of the public as well as their capacity and the comments received, are contained in Table 1-2 below: Table 1-2: Capacity of and comments received from the consulted members of the public in Ariamsvlei.

The Endangered Wildlife Trust (EWT) was subsequently appointed to conduct an avifaunal specialist study. Very few CSP plants have been constructed worldwide to date, and knowledge on the associated avifaunal impacts remains limited. The site consists mainly of uniform, arid vegetation types. Few permanent water bodies were observed on site. The proposed site falls within the Quarter Degree Grid Square (QDGS), 2823BD, while data from three additional squares, 2823BA, 2823BB, and 2823BC was also considered due to their close proximity to the site. The South African Bird Atlas Project (SABAP) recorded 12 Red Listed Species (Harrison et al, 1997), across all four squares, of which 5 are classified as Vulnerable, and 7 as Near Threatened. One additional species, the White Stork, is also included as it is protected internationally under the Bonn Convention on Migratory Species. Various other species relevant to the project were identified and include raptors, doves, pigeons and aerial foragers such as swallows and swifts. In general, SABAP2 data showed low counting effort for study site and immediate surrounds.

  • Siyanda EMF Draft Status Quo Report
    SIYANDA ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK – EMF REPORT Executive Summary Introduction Environomics, leading a multi disciplinary team, was appointed to undertake the compilation of an Environmetnal Management Framework (EMF). It was a joint project between the Department of Environmental Affairs and Tourism (DEAT), the Northern Cape Department of Toursim, Environment & Conservation (NCDTEC) and the Siyanda District Minicipality (SDM). The purpose of the project is to develop an EMF that will integrate municipal and provincial decision-making and align different government mandates in a way that will put the area on a sustainable development path. Description of the area The Siyanda District covers an area of 102,661.349km2 in the Northern Cape Province and lies on the great African plateau. It falls within four physical geographical regions namely: . The Kalahari; . Bushmanland; . the Griqua fold belt; and . the Ghaap Plateau. The Kalahari basin stretches northwards from just north of the Orange River into Botswana and Namibia. It is a flat, sand covered, semi-desert area, on average between 900m to 1200m above sea-level. It is characterised by a number of large pans to the north of Upington, by dry river beds (such as the Kuruman, Nossob and Molopo Rivers) and by dunes which strike north- west to south-east. The region is underlain by Karoo rocks and rocks belonging to the tertiary Kalahari Group. Outcrops are rare. Bushmanland is an arid, level sub-region of the Cape Middleveld to the east of the Namaqua Highlands. It is underlain by granitic Precambrian rocks on the western and northern sides and by Karoo rocks towards the south-east.
