CES now takes over from Savannah Environmental as independent consultants to undertake an EIA process for the proposed project, as required by the NEMA EIA Regulations, 2014, as amended. The EAP is largely dependent on the information and assessments provided by the independent specialists and the input received during the public participation process in order to inform the overall environmental assessment of the proposed development on both environmental and social aspects. The process where the environmental impacts associated with a project are assessed is a collective effort from a team of appropriate and independent specialists, as well as an independent Environmental Assessment Practitioner (EAP). The EIA report is required to assess the planned development from a holistic perspective, considering all aspects and characteristics within the affected natural and social environment. The following specialist consultants have provided expert input and a detailed assessment of the project within their area of expertise, in order to assess the environmental and social impacts within the affected environment, as well as the acceptability of the application.

  • White Rock WF EA April 2011 Page 143-210
    143 Environmental Assessment 10.2 Communication Impacts 10.2.1 Background Wind turbines have the potential to interfere with television and radio broadcasting, mobile phone reception, microwave links and other radio links such as mobile and CB radio. There are three mechanisms by which wind turbines may cause interference: reflection or scattering, diffraction and near field effects. • Reflection or scattering – occurs when a signal becomes obstructed between the transmitter and a receiver, this could be due to a tower or moving blade component as shown in Figure 10-5. • Diffraction – occurs when a signal is both absorbed and reflected by an object in the signal path. • Near field effects – are caused by electromagnetic fields. This is no longer an issue due to advances in wind turbine technology and compliance with Electromagnetic Emission Standards. A communication impact assessment report was prepared by Epuron. The objectives of this investigation were to identify the potential for impacts from the proposed White Rock Wind Farm on existing telecommunications services in the vicinity of the project, and to identify appropriate mitigation strategies for potential impacts. The full investigation including a glossary of acronyms used in the investigation, maps, footnotes and references is presented in Appendix 6. The following approach was adopted to identify the potential impact of the project on telecommunications: • Identify holders of telecommunications licenses (under the Radiocommunications Act 1992) within a 25km radius of the project, as well as point-to-point links in the vicinity of the project, using information provided on the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) RADCOM database. • Provide written notification of the project and seek comments from each license holder identified via the ACMA RADCOM database search.

  • Climatic Reconstruction Using Wood Charcoal from Archaeological Sites
    CLIMATIC RECONSTRUCTION USING WOOD CHARCOAL FROM ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITES Town EDMUND CARL FEBRUARY Cape of Univesity Thesis presented to the University of Cape Town in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts April 1990 The copyright of this thesis vests in the author. No quotation from it or information derived from it is to be published without full acknowledgementTown of the source. The thesis is to be used for private study or non- commercial research purposes only. Cape Published by the University ofof Cape Town (UCT) in terms of the non-exclusive license granted to UCT by the author. University ABSTRACT This thesis assesses the feasibility of using wood charcoal from archaeological sites as a palaeoclimatic indicator. Three techniques are described: (i) charcoal identification from Xylem Anatomy. (ii) Ecologically Diagnostic Xylem Analysis and (iii) stable carbon isotope analysis on wood charcoal. The first is a well established method of environmental reconstruction. This is the first systematic application of Ecologically Diagnostic Analysis and the first application of stable carbon isotope analysis on wood charcoal. Charcoal identification shows that the most common woody species at Elands Bay today are also evident in the archaeological record over the last 4000 years, indicating a relatively stable plant community composition. Previous studies of wood anatomy have shown that there are links between vessel size, vessel number and climate. This study demonstrates that the wood anatomy of Rhus is not simply related to climatic factors, necessitating the employment of a wide range of statistical analytical techniques to identify climatic signals. In contrast, the anatomy of Diospyros shows strong correlations with temperature.
