This report represents compliance with a full Phase 1 HIA. Heritage resource descriptions, significance and development impacts We observed no visually sensitive categories of heritage resource within the proposed development corridor. However, we did notice various abandoned homesteads around and between existing villages that may include ancestral graves. The Lower Beaufort Group bedrocks in the study region are generally deeply weathered and mantled in unfossiliferous superficial sediments (e.g. soils, alluvium). Furthermore, their original fossil content has probably been compromised by thermal metamorphism (baking) during dolerite intrusion. Hitherto major vertebrate fossil finds are unknown from the study area, although recent impact studies in the region suggest this may be partially due to insufficient palaeontological research. Substantial sectors of the power line route traverse Karoo dolerite outcrops of no palaeontological significance. Alluvial sediments near Dutywa are of low palaeontological sensitivity. Recommended mitigation A heritage practitioner should complete a ‘walk-through’ of the final selected power line route and all other activity areas (access roads, construction camps, materials’ storage areas, etc.) prior to the start of any construction activities and assess direct impacts on discrete resources such as archaeological sites. Mitigation can usually be achieved by micro-adjustment of tower positions, the exclusion of sensitive areas, basic recording and/or obtaining a permit for alteration, destruction or removal from SAHRA. Tower placements should be negotiated with residents to ensure that no ancestral graves are affected. Significant impacts on local fossil heritage are not anticipated during the operational phase of the transmission line development. Should substantial fossil remains be exposed during construction, however, such as vertebrate bones and teeth, plant-rich fossil lenses or dense fossil burrow assemblages, the Environmental Control Officer should safeguard these, preferably in situ, and alert SAHRA as soon as possible so that appropriate action (e.g. recording, sampling or collection) can be taken by a professional palaeontologist (refer to Section 9). Recommended monitoring None at present. Conclusion We recommend that the development proceed with the proposed heritage mitigation and have submitted this report to SAHRA in fulfilment of the requirements of the NHRA. Relevant staff members may be contacted at the SAHRA Cape Town head office (Mariagrazia Galimberti telephone 021 462 4502; [email protected]). If permission is granted for development to proceed, the client is reminded that the NHRA requires that a developer cease all work immediately and follow the protocol contained in Section 9 of this report should any heritage resources, as defined in the Act, be discovered during the course of development activities. eThembeni Cultural Heritage for Arcus GIBB Engineering and Science Page 2 PHASE 1 HIA OF 132kv POWER LINE, DUTYWA TO GATYANA SUBSTATIONS, AMATHOLE DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY, EASTERN CAPE Contents Page 1 Introduction 4 2 Terms of reference 4 3 Project description 5 4 Project location and environmental description 6 5 Methodology and approach 7 6 Observations 10 7 Recommended mitigation 11 8 Recommended monitoring 11 9 Protocol for the identification, protection and recovery of heritage resources during construction and operation 11 10 Conclusion 12 11 Bibliography 13 Appendix A Statutory requirements 14 Appendix B Archaeological and historical context of the study area 19 Appendix C Palaeontological Specialist Study: Desktop Assessment 23 Appendix D Determination of significance of and impacts on heritage resources 43 Appendix E Specialist competency and Declaration of independence 47 List of figures Figure 1 Locality map of the project relative to Dutywa and Willowvale in the Eastern Cape Province. 6 Figure 2 Locality map of the proposed Gatyana substation. 6 eThembeni Cultural Heritage for Arcus GIBB Engineering and Science Page 3 PHASE 1 HIA OF 132kv POWER LINE, DUTYWA TO GATYANA SUBSTATIONS, AMATHOLE DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY, EASTERN CAPE 1 Introduction eThembeni Cultural Heritage was appointed by Arcus GIBB Engineering and Science to undertake a Phase 1 Heritage Impact Assessment (HIA) of a electrical transmission line in the Eastern Cape Province, in terms of the National Environmental Management Act 107 of 1998 as amended (NEMA), in compliance with Section 38 of the National Heritage Resources Act 25 of 1999, as amended (NHRA) (refer to Appendix A). South Africa’s heritage resources are both rich and widely diverse, encompassing sites from all periods of human history. Resources may be tangible, such as buildings and archaeological artefacts, or intangible, such as landscapes and living heritage. Their significance is based upon their aesthetic, architectural, historical, scientific, social, spiritual, linguistic, economic or technological values; their representivity of a particular time period; their rarity; and their sphere of influence. The integrity and significance of heritage resources can be jeopardized by natural (e.g. erosion) and human (e.g. development) activities. In the case of human activities, a range of legislation exists to ensure the timeous identification and effective management of heritage resources for present and future generations. This report represents compliance with a full Phase 1 HIA for the proposed development, including a specialist palaeontological study. 2 Terms of reference An HIA must address the following key aspects: the identification and mapping of all heritage resources in the area affected; an assessment of the significance of such resources in terms of heritage assessment criteria set out in regulations; an assessment of the impact of the development on heritage resources; an evaluation of the impact of the development on heritage resources relative to the sustainable social and economic benefits to be derived from the development; the results of consultation with communities affected by the proposed development and other interested parties regarding the impact of the development on heritage resources; if heritage resources will be adversely affected by the proposed development, the consideration of alternatives; and plans for mitigation of any adverse effects during and after completion of the proposed development. In addition, the HIA should comply with the requirements of NEMA, including providing the assumptions and limitations associated with the study; the details, qualifications and expertise of the person who prepared the report; and a statement of independence. eThembeni Cultural Heritage for Arcus GIBB Engineering and Science Page 4 PHASE 1 HIA OF 132kv POWER LINE, DUTYWA TO GATYANA SUBSTATIONS, AMATHOLE DISTRICT MUNICIPALITY, EASTERN CAPE 3 Project description The Willowvale (Gatyana) area has about 10 700 outstanding electrification connections under the accelerated electrification programme. However, it is anticipated that the 22kV networks supplying this area will have reached the limits of their supply capacity by 2011. There will thus be no capacity to supply the outstanding connections beyond 2011. In order to address this limitation and to provide spare capacity for future load growth, it is necessary to strengthen the supply to the 22kV network by upgrading the 132kV network in the area. This will provide the needed spare capacity, improve back-feed capabilities and improve the reliability of supply to the Willowvale area The planned network strengthening entails: Construction of 132/22kV 2x20MVA Gatyana substation in the Willowvale area. Construction of ±40km of 132kV Chicadee line from Idutywa substation to Gatyana substation. Upgrade existing 22kV link lines and build new 22kV link lines. The project is needed in order to provide capacity for existing and future developments in the area; improve reliability of supply and maintain acceptable voltage levels on this network. NEMA Section 24(5) stipulates that “listed activities” require environmental authorization. Government Notice No. 544 (June 2010 EIA Regulations) identifies the following listed activities as requiring environmental authorization by means of a Basic Assessment Process: Activity No. 10 “The construction of facilities or infrastructure for the transmission or distribution

  • Strategic Military Colonisation: the Cape Eastern Frontier 1806 – 1872
    46 STRATEGIC MILITARY COLONISATION: THE CAPE EASTERN FRONTIER 1806–1872 Linda Robson* and Mark Oranje† Department of Town and Regional Planning, University of Pretoria Abstract The Cape Eastern Frontier of South Africa offers a fascinating insight into British military strategy as well as colonial development. The Eastern Frontier was for over 100 years a very turbulent frontier. It was the area where the four main population groups (the Dutch, the British, the Xhosa and the Khoikhoi) met, and in many respects, key decisions taken on this frontier were seminal in the shaping of South Africa. This article seeks to analyse this frontier in a spatial manner, to analyse how British settlement patterns on the ground were influenced by strategy and policy. The time frame of the study reflects the truly imperial colonial era, from the second British occupation of the Cape colony in 1806 until representative self- governance of the Cape colony in 1872. Introduction British colonial expansion into the Eastern Cape of Southern Africa offers a unique insight into the British method of colonisation, land acquisition and consolidation. This article seeks to analyse the British imperial approach to settlement on a turbulent frontier. The spatial development pattern is discussed in order to understand the defensive approach of the British during the period 1806 to 1872 better.

  • Phase 1 Palaeontological Impact Assessment of 2 Quarries and 6 Borrow Pits, Between Willowvale and Dwesa, EC Province
    Phase 1 Palaeontological Impact Assessment of 2 Quarries and 6 Borrow Pits, between Willowvale and Dwesa, EC Province. Report prepared for: CCS Environmental Consultants. Dr Lloyd Rossouw PO Box 38806 Langenhovenpark 9330 Executive Summary A Phase 1 Palaeontological Impact Assessment was carried out at a two quarries and six borrow pit sites between Willowvale and Dwesa in the Eastern Cape. Quarry 1 and 2 are exclusively doleritic and therefore not palaeontologically significant. Borrow Pit 1 and 3 are located in Adelaide Subgroup strata, while an intrusive dolerite outcrop (dyke) and Adelaide Subgroup metasediments are represented at Borrow Pit 2. Borrow Pits 4, 5 and 6 are located in older Ecca Group strata. No fossils or trace fossils were located near or in the vicinity of the borrow pits during the baseline survey. The survey of exposed strata has indicated no evidence for potential palaeontological impact. There is no indication for the accumulation and preservation of intact fossil material within the Quaternary sediments (topsoils) covering the underlying sedimentary rocks. 2 Introduction At the request of Control Civil Services, a Palaeontological Impact Assessment was carried out along designated areas between Willowvale and Dwesa in the Eastern Cape with the aim to investigate six borrow pit localities and two quarries that will be utilized to maintain and rehabilitate the gravel road infrastructure in the region. The survey is required as a prerequisite for new development in terms of the National Environmental Management Act and is also called for in terms of the National Heritage Resources Act 25 of 1999. In terms of Section 38 of the National Heritage Resources Act 25 of 1999 the survey is required as a prerequisite for any development which will change the character of a site exceeding 5 000 m2 in extent.

  • Clippety Clop), Kwelera, East London, Great Kei Municipality, Eastern Cape
    PALAEONTOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT: COMBINED FIELD ASSESSMENT AND DESKTOP STUDY Proposed development of Portion 3 of Farm 695 (Clippety Clop), Kwelera, East London, Great Kei Municipality, Eastern Cape. JOHN E. ALMOND (PhD, Cantab) Natura Viva cc, PO Box 12410 Mill Street, CAPE TOWN 8010, RSA. [email protected] October 2011 1. SUMMARY The proposed holiday housing development on Portion 3 of Farm 695 (Clippety Clop), Kwelera, East London, is situated on the northern banks of the tidal Kwelera River, some 20 km northeast of East London, Eastern Cape. The development footprint is largely underlain by Late Permian continental sediments of the Adelaide Subgroup (Lower Beaufort Group, c. 253-251 million years old). These rocks are overlain by Early Triassic sandstones of the Katberg Formation (Tarkastad Subgroup) that build the cliffs and higher ground to the northeast. South of the river the Beaufort Group sediments are intruded and baked by Early Jurassic igneous intrusions of the Karoo Dolerite Suite. The Balfour Formation fluvial sediments are potentially fossiliferous, having yielded elsewhere a wide range of terrestrial vertebrates (bones and teeth of pareiasaurs, therapsids, amphibians et al.), bivalves, trace fossils and vascular plants. The overall impact of this project on local palaeontological heritage is likely to be very minor, however, because the potentially fossiliferous Beaufort Group sediments here are (a) deeply weathered, (b) sparsely fossiliferous, (c) have probably been extensively baked by nearby dolerite intrusions, and (d) are mostly covered with a thick (> 3m) mantle of fossil-poor alluvium. No fossils were observed within good exposures of the Balfour Formation rocks at the coast and in excellent roadcuts inland.

    MBHASHE LOCAL MUNICIPALITY Reviewed Integrated Development Plan 2015 – 2016 CONTACT: Municipal Manager Mbhashe Local Municipality 4037 Streatfield Street Dutywa, 5000 Tel: 047 – 489 5800 Fax:047 – 489 1137 MbhasheLocal Municipality – Review IDP 2015-2016 Page 1 MAYOR’S FOREWORD 2015/2016 IDP REVIEW The Municipal Systems Act, 32 of 2000 requires all municipalities to develop 5 year Integrated Development plans and review them annually. Mbhashe Local Municipality has developed the draft IDP within an approved IDP process plan and engaged in a consultation process to ensure that communities become part of the planning and decision making processes. The Municipality engaged in a strategic planning session, where a SWOT analysis was established and strategic objectives were developed. The process was followed by the development of projects emanating from the needs and challenges identified in the strategic planning session and IDP public participation. It is with great pride to highlight the effort taken by the municipality to appoint a Municipality Manager after long years of vacancies in these managerial posts who in his arrival has fast tracked the appointment of other senior managers, together with his team have reviewed our organisational structure as are about to fill all vacant posts and later ensured that this IDP and Budget processes are aligned; that the SDBIP is linked to the IDP and that public participation has been done as required by legislation and we are confident that through the Integrated Development Plan the municipality will be in a position to deliver services in line with the countries constitutional standards. With the above assertion, this IDP comes at the time when municipalities throughout the country in general are faced with genuine community civil disobediences hidden in those being mischievous protests coming from within us, while we as woman fight the war on devilish abuse of women and children, job creation to boosting our local economy and this has left our Municipality being no exception.
