The present geological period has more species than any other, yet the current rate of extinction of species is greater now than at any time in the past. Ecosystems and communities are being degraded and destroyed, and species are being driven to extinction. The species that persist are losing genetic variation as the number of individuals in populations shrinks, unique populations and subspecies are destroyed, and remaining populations become increasingly isolated from one another. The cause of this loss of biological diversity at all levels is the range of human activity that alters and destroys natural habitats to suit human needs.” (Primack, 2002). CapeNature launched its State of Biodiversity Programme (SoBP) to assess and monitor the state of biodiversity in the Western Cape in 1999. This programme delivered its first report in 2002 and these reports are updated every five years. The current report (2007) reports on the changes to the state of vertebrate biodiversity and land under conservation usage.

  • Archaeological Impact Assessment of the Proposed Extension of a Borrow Pit on Soetmelksvlei 150, Greyton Area, Overberg District Municipality, Western Cape
    ARCHAEOLOGICAL IMPACT ASSESSMENT OF THE PROPOSED EXTENSION OF A BORROW PIT ON SOETMELKSVLEI 150, GREYTON AREA, OVERBERG DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY, WESTERN CAPE (Assessment conducted under Section 38 (8) of the National Heritage Resources Act as part of a Heritage Impact Assessment) Prepared for: Vidamemoria Heritage Consultants Att: Ms Quahnita Samie E-mail: [email protected] On behalf of: Nadeson Consulting Services Prepared by: Madelon Tusenius Natura Viva cc PO Box 12410 Mill Street, Cape Town 8010 Phone: (021) 462 3622 E-mail: [email protected] OCTOBER 2012 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Natura Viva cc was appointed by Vidamemoria Heritage Consultants on behalf of Nadeson Consulting Services to undertake an Archaeological Impact Assessment (AIA) for the proposed extension of an existing borrow pit DR1303/16.50/R/1250 (Vidamemoria pit no. 179) between Greyton and Riviersonderend in the Overberg District Municipality. Material excavated from the proposed pit extension will be used for the maintenance of the DR1303. No new roads will have to be constructed as access to the quarry site will be via existing roads and tracks. Special erosion measures will have to be implemented during rehabilitation of the site after quarrying activities have ceased. This study forms part of the Heritage Impact Assessment triggered by the development. The brief for the study was a field visit and short report identifying and assessing archaeological resources and any impact on them, an assessment of significance and recommendations regarding any mitigation required. The field assessment was conducted on foot on 17 September 2012. Archaeological visibility was good on the sparsely-vegetated steep slopes of the hill which forms the major part of the proposed extension.

    Proposed Alterations and Additions to the “Pioneer House” on Farm 145, The Oaks, Greyton. Heritage Report – March 2016 Prepared by Heritage Consultant, Anne-Marie Fick, circulated to Interested and Affected Parties and submitted to Heritage Western Cape Table of Contents 1) Executive Summary 2) Introduction and Case History 3) Location 4) Methodology 5) Historical and architectural development 6) Context 7) Significance and Grading 8) The Alterations and Additions Proposal 9) Legislative Requirements 10) Conclusions 11) Recommendations 12) References 13) Photographs 1-Executive Summary The Oaks farm lies in the Riviersonderend Valley, approximately 10km from Greyton. The farm werf contains a Pioneers house, Manor House, Stables, Wine Cellar, and mill which along with sections of werf walling enclose a big square shaped werf that is a beautiful tree filled space. The whole werf was recently restored following various HWC applications and approvals. The Pioneers House is the house relevant to this application. The farm’s history was well researched by Ms Dicey Du Toit for the previous applications, and this research revealed the connection with Genadendal’s mission station as well as some interesting and significant historic owners. The restoration was guided by these findings as well as by extensive on site research, including plaster stripping and analysis. The werf and its buildings were unofficially graded by HWC’s BELCom as Grade II – it was never formally gazetted. The new alterations and additions is a sensitive proposal with low impact. None of the proposed actions will be visible on the werf side, and the previously (HWC) approved design philosophy for the handling of new additions to historic buildings on this werf is employed.
