  • 7.5. Identified Sites of Significance Residential Buildings Within Rosettenville (Semi-Detached, Freestanding)
    7.5. Identified sites of significance_Residential buildings within Rosettenville (Semi-detached, freestanding) Introduction Residential buildings are buildings that are generally used for residential purposes or have been zoned for residential usage. It must be noted the majority of residences are over 60 years, it was therefore imperative for detailed visual study to be done where the most significant buildings were mapped out. Their significance could be as a result of them being associated to prominent figures, association with special events, design patterns of a certain period in history, rarity or part of an important architectural school. Most of the sites identified in this category are of importance in their local contexts and are representative of the historical and cultural patterns that could be discerned from the built environment. All the identified sites were given a 3A category explained below. Grading 3A_Sites that have a highly significant association with a historic person, social grouping, historic events, public memories, historical activities, and historical landmarks (should by all means be conserved) 3B_ Buildings of marginally lesser significance (possibility of senstive alteration and addition to the interior) 3C_Buildings and or sites whose significance is in large part significance that contributes to the character of significance of the environs (possibility for alteration and addition to the exterior) Summary Table of identified sites in the residential category: Site/ Description Provisional Heritage Implications

Approval does not signify that the contents necessarily reflect the views and policies of the WRC, nor does mention of trade names or commercial products constitute endorsement or recommendation for use. © Water Research Commission ii EXECUTIVE SUMMARY BACKGROUND Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) consist of fused benzene rings and the congeners have varying numbers of benzene rings, usually between two and six. They have a widespread distribution due to their formation by incomplete combustion of organic materials and are continuously released into the environment making them ever-present. The US EPA has earmarked 16 congeners that must be monitored and controlled because of their proven harmful effects on humans and wildlife. Anthropogenic activities largely increase the occurrence of these pollutants in the environment. A measurable amount of these PAHs are expected to find their way into aquatic ecosystems. RATIONALE In a previous study completed for the Water Research Commission (Project no K5/1561) on persistent organic pollutants in freshwater sites throughout the entire country, the PAHs had the highest levels of all of the organic pollutants analysed for.
