  • Executive Summary
    Eldorette Extension 54 Draft Basic Assessment Report Eldorette Extension 54 Gaut 002/18-19/E0099 October 2018 Executive Summary 1 | Page Eldorette Extension 54 Executive Summary 1 INTRODUCTION Cosyspro (Pty) Ltd (the applicant) appointed Texture Environmental Consultants as the independent Environmental Assessment Practitioner (EAP) to undertake the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) for the proposed development of Eldorette Extension 54. An application for environmental authorisation was submitted to the Gauteng Department of Agriculture and Rural Development (GDARD). The GDARD requires a Basic Assessment for this project. The Basic Assessment will conform to the National Environmental Management Act 107 of 1998 and to the Environmental Impact Assessment Regulations as amended. The Basic Assessment will provide information about the proposed Eldorette Extension 54, and its scope is restricted to this component of the project. The study site is located on Holding 42 in the Heatherdale Agricultural Holdings, on the corner of Main street and First Avenue, on the northern side of Akasia High School in the City of Tshwane Metropolitan Municipality, Gauteng Province. The property measures some 2.1883 hectares in total size. 2 APPROACH TO THE BASIC ASSESSMENT PROCESS The approach followed by the consultants is based on the specifications for the Basic Assessment Report in terms of the Environmental Impact Assessment Regulations, 2014, promulgated in terms of the National Environmental Management Act, 1998 (Act No. 107 of 1998), as amended. Gauteng Provincial Department of Agriculture and Rural Development, is the lead authority for this Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) process and the development needs to be authorised by this Department in accordance with the National Environmental Management Act 107 of 1998 (NEMA) (as amended).

Some of this information is unaudited or subject to revision. To obtain additional copies of this document, please contact: Communications Directorate National Treasury Private Bag X115 Pretoria 0001 South Africa Tel: +27 12 315 5944 Fax: +27 12 407 9055 The document is also available on the internet at: www.treasury.gov.za. ii Foreword This special adjustments budget sets out government’s initial economic and fiscal response to COVID-19. It fast-tracks normal processes to provide resources to frontline services, provincial and local government, and firms and households, with a focus on the most vulnerable South Africans. It also underlines our commitment to stabilise the public finances and enact reforms that will promote trade, investment and job creation. The oft-overused word “unprecedented” is appropriate in this case. The pandemic is expected to lead to the sharpest global economic downturn since the Second World War and the biggest overall decline in countries’ per capita incomes in 150 years. In 2020, the output of developing economies is expected to contract for the first time in at least 60 years. The pandemic has had a profound impact on South Africa. The economy is expected to contract by 7.2 per cent this year. All economic sectors have experienced a sharp downturn and small businesses in particular face extreme pressure. Millions of jobs are at risk – and millions of households are experiencing increased hardship.

    Directions The directions to Medunsa Campus from Johannesburg, the Airport or the Eastern side of Pretoria are as follows: Take the N1 highway direction North (Pietersburg/Polokwane). North of Pretoria (after the Zambesi off-ramp) take the N4 (Platinum Highway/ Bakwena toll) direction Rustenburg. From the N4, you have three possibilities: 1. Take the R 566 off-ramp (signed Rosslyn). Turn right onto the R566. Continue on the R566 up to and through the Rosslyn industrial area, past SAB breweries on your right, past Nissan on your left and past the newly built housing developments on your left. Turn right onto the M17 (signed Ga-Rankuwa/ Soshanguwe). OR 2. If you missed the R566: From the N4, take the R80 off-ramp (the next off-ramp after the R566 off-ramp). Turn right onto the R80, direction North (Mabopane). At the next off-ramp (signed Rosslyn), turn left onto the R566. Continue on the R566 through the Rosslyn industrial area, past SAB breweries on your right, past Nissan on your left and past the newly built housing developments on your left. Turn right onto the M17 (signed Ga-rankuwa/ Soshanguwe). OR 3. If you prefer to stay on the highway: From the N4, take the M17 off-ramp (signed Ga- Rankuwa - the next off-ramp after the R80 off-ramp). Turn right over the highway onto the M17 in a northerly direction (AWAY FROM Brits). At the T junction with the R566, turn right (signed Rosslyn, direction East). Just after the railway bridge, take the M17 left (signed Soshanguve/ Garankuwa, direction North).
