INTRODUCTION This office was employed for the electrical investigation and as the electrical engineers on the project to implement, design and construct a transport centre at Trompsburg next to the N1 route south of Bloemfontein in the Free State Province. This purpose of the project is to expand the economy and infrastructure of Trompsburg and the Kopanong Municipality and to create a Hub of activities and economic and cultural expansion. The service report will be for the development of a taxi terminus.which will be discussed in the report 2. PROJECT BRIEF-PROBLEM STATEMENT The Brief of the project is to electrify the taxi terminus and install lighting and power within the buildings and the area lighting. 3. DESIGN CRITERIA/PARAMETERS The scope of works compromises but is not limited to the following: 1. Design of internal reticulation of the taxi terminus area. 2. Design of the lighting layouts within the taxi terminus 3. Design of the area lighting 4. Design of the street lighting 5. Design of the lightning protection installations. 4. WORKPLAN-METHOD The workplan to obtain the design criteria and project brief is as set out below: 1. Have site inspections on the proposed site and evaluate the viability of the site 2. Arrange and have meetings with the relevant parties to discuss the relevant site. 3. Compile Report on the services needed and do a preliminary design. BVI CONSULTING ENGINEERS NOV 2014 Page | 1 31696E-REP001-02 Trompsburg Transport Centre-Electrical Services Report 5. FINDINGS & INFORMATION. The site was visited and the proposed site for the development is as indicated in Figure 1 Proposed position for taxi terminus Figure 1-Proposed site As seen in figure 2 the existing Eskom services are indicated. BVI CONSULTING ENGINEERS NOV 2014 Page | 2 31696E-REP001-02 Trompsburg Transport Centre-Electrical Services Report 5.1. EXISTING SERVICES Figure 2-Existing Eskom Services At the site inspection it was found that at the site identified there is a 66kV overhead line situated next to the proposed site on the eastern side and is the property of Eskom It was also found that there is a 11kV overhead line crossing the proposed site and Eskom was contacted and they assured us that this line may be relocated and that an application for relocation of services must be done. The existing Eskom services are indicated in Figure 2-Existing Eskom Services BVI CONSULTING ENGINEERS NOV 2014 Page | 3 31696E-REP001-02 Trompsburg Transport Centre-Electrical Services Report Although Eskom services are in the vicinity of the site the service provider is Centlec. There is a Centlec 11kV overhead line next to the entrance road of the town on the southern side of the proposed site and thus an application for electricity must be done to get a connection from this line. Centlec was contacted and they assured us that a connection up to a certain size may be done from the 11kV overhead line. 5.2. NEW ELECTRICITY SUPPLY As discussed in the above paragraph there is a 11kV overhead line on the southern side of the site that is the property of Centlec and thus application must be done for a new connection from this line If looked at the next paragraph preliminary design and Table 1- Preliminary design loads, a connection size of 150A three phase is needed to supply the proposed new transport centre development. With regards to the town planning documents the erf next to the proposed transport centre will be for a shopping centre development of +- 4000m². This will not require power at this moment but as for the transport centre there is electricity available. On an estimate of 100kVA/m² with diversity it will require a 400kVA connection. Centlec was contacted and they indicated that a connection can take place and that there is availability on the line and that the connection will be in the form of a new pole mounted transformer of ratings 100kVA 11 000 / 400V delta/star will be done if application is done. Further feedback will be received at a later stage with regards to the exact point of connection.

    Report on the ecological assessment and wetland delineation of the proposed sandstone quarry in Zastron, Free State Province.

Box 28242 Danhof 9310 1 DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE DPR Ecologists and Environmental Services is an independent company and has no financial, personal or other interest in the proposed project, apart from fair remuneration for work performed in the delivery of ecological services. There are no circumstances that compromise the objectivity of the study. Report Version Final 1.0 Report on the ecological assessment and wetland delineation of the proposed sandstone quarry in Zastron, Free State Province. Title Author DP van Rensburg Mar’18 (Pr.Sci.Nat) 2 Executive Summary According to Mucina & Rutherford (2006) the area consists of Zastron Moist Grassland (Gm 1). This vegetation type is currently listed as being of Least Concern (LC) under the National List of Threatened Ecosystems (Notice 1477 of 2009) (National Environmental Management Biodiversity Act, 2004) (Map 2). The vegetation type is not currently subjected to any pronounced transformation pressures. The site is listed as an Ecological Support Area 2 under the Free State Province Biodiversity Management Plan (2015) (Map 3). Although this is not a Critical Biodiversity Area it still functions in ecological support of surrounding natural areas. It is therefore not considered to have a high conservation value. The site also does not contain any rare or endangered species which could significantly increase the conservation value. One protected species were observed on the site. P, sidoides is listed as a protected species under the List of Species that area Threatened or Protected (TOPS) (National Environmental Management: Biodiversity Act, 2004 (Act No.

Summary $what is a biodiversity plan This report contains the technical information that details the rationale and methods followed to produce the first terrestrial biodiversity plan for the Free State Province. Because of low confidence in the aquatic data that were available at the time of developing the plan, the aquatic component is not included herein and will be released as a separate report. The biodiversity plan was developed with cognisance of the requirements for the determination of bioregions and the preparation and publication of bioregional plans (DEAT, 2009). To this extent the two main products of this process are: • A map indicating the different terrestrial categories (Protected, Critical Biodiversity Areas, Ecological Support Areas, Other and Degraded) • Land-use guidelines for the above mentioned categories This plan represents the first attempt at collating all terrestrial biodiversity and ecological data into a single system from which it can be interrogated and assessed.
