The research’s integration of problem-solving methods may be used in instances where public violence is common and pre-empted. The study researched the policing of public expression against poor service delivery in a democratic South Africa after the adoption of a new Constitution. The Scanning, Analysis, Response and Assessment Model is applied by way of a service-oriented, preventative policing style involving the principles of the Community Policing Style. The dissertation argues that though the South African Police Service’s handling of public violence in the Eastern Free State, was reminiscent of the former public violence of political oppression, it should gradually move away from the military approach to a preferred community policing style and include relevant role players in using a systematic and service-orientated preventative policing style to address public violence.

Onderstepoort Journal of Veterinary Research, 75:141– 146 The prevalence of Theileria equi and Babesia caballi infections in the north-eastern Free State Province of South Africa was determined by examination of thin and thick Giemsa-stained blood smears, IFAT and PCR. No parasites were detected by microscopy from any blood samples collected at five study sites, Qwaqwa, Kestell, Harrismith, Vrede and Warden. Of the tested serum samples, 28/29 (96.5 %), 20/21 (95.2 %) and 42/42 (100 %) were positive by IFAT for T. equi infections in Harrismith, Kestell and Qwaqwa, respectively, and 5/29 (17.2 %), 13/21 (61.9 %) and 30/42 (71.4 %) were sero-positive for B. caballi infections in Harrismith, Kestell and Qwaqwa, respectively. All DNA samples from the study sites were negative for B. caballi infections by PCR, but five samples, two from each of Kestell and Warden and one from Vrede, were PCR positive for T.

  • Heritage Report-Paul Roux
    Phase 1 Heritage Impact Assessment for proposed new 1.5 km-long underground sewerage pipeline in Paul Roux, Thabo Mofutsanyane District Municipality, Free State Province. Report prepared by Paleo Field Services PO Box 38806, Langenhovenpark 9330 16 / 02 / 2020 Summary A heritage impact assessment was carried for a proposed new 1.5 km-long underground sewerage pipeline in Paul Roux in the Thabo Mofutsanyane District Municipality, Free State Province. The study area is situated on the farm Farm Mary Ann 712, next to the N5 national road covering a section of the Sand River floodplain which is located on the eastern outskirts of Paul Roux . The proposed footprint is underlain by well-developed alluvial and geologically recent overbank sediments of the Sand River. Investigation of exposed alluvial cuttings next to the bridge crossing shows little evidence of intact Quaternary fossil remains. Potentially fossil-bearing Tarkastad Subgroup and younger Molteno Formation strata are exposed to the southwest of the study area. These outcrops will not be impacted by the proposed development. There are no major palaeontological grounds to suspend the proposed development. The study area consists for the most part of open grassland currently used for cattle grazing. The foot survey revealed little evidence of in situ Stone Age archaeological material, capped or distributed as surface scatters on the landscape. There are also no indications of rock art, prehistoric structures or other historical structures or buildings older than 60 years within the vicinity of the study area. A large cemetery is located directly west of the proposed footprint. The modern bridge construction at the Sand River crossing is not considered to be of historical significance.

  • Archaeological and Cultural Historic Assessment of the New Borrow Pits on the N5 Road Between Senekal & Paul Roux, Free State
    14 October 2005 ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND CULTURAL HISTORIC ASSESSMENT OF THE NEW BORROW PITS ON THE N5 ROAD BETWEEN SENEKAL & PAUL ROUX, FREE STATE INVESTIGATION Two new borrow pits on the N5 road between Senekal and Paul Roux, Free State, was inspected on 7 October 2005 in the company of Dr Johan du Preez of Cebo Environmental Consultants, Bloemfontein. The land was examined for possible archaeological and historical material and to establish the potential impact on any cultural material that might be found. The Heritage Impact Assessment (HIA) is done in terms of the National Heritage Resources Act (NHRA), (25 of 1999) and under the Environmental Conservation Act, (73 of 1989). LOCALITY The proposed developments are located at the farms Oriel 1220 (Map 1) and Zyferfontein 246 (Map 2) outside Senekal respectively. The farm Oriel 1220 is located on the north side of the Sand River to the west of the town (Map 1). The farm is reached via the old Ventersburg road across the Hattingh Bridge on the old way to Steynsrust (2827BC). The proposed new borrow pit will be near the Sand River on the southern border of the farm (Fig.1). GPS co-ordinates are given in Cape scale: 2 BP 11 ORIEL 1220 SENEKAL 28°18’51”S. 027°35’59”E.
