ProposalDescription: 

The proposed construction of a new solid waste disposal site for Victoria West, Northern Cape.

Expanded_Motivation: 

The applicant, namely the Ubuntu Local Municipality, proposes to establish a new solid waste disposal site (landfill site) for Victoria West, adjacent to the existing landfill site. The existing solid waste site in Victoria West is not licensed and does not comply with the Minimum Requirements for Waste Disposal as stipulated by the Department of Water and Sanitation. The existing Victoria West landfill is situated approximately 2 km north east from the centre of the town. The landfill is owned and managed by the municipality. Due to the poor environmental siting, lack of initial planning and historically poor operational procedures and control, the waste site impacted upon various sectors of the surrounding environment. The site is approaching its full capacity and need to be closed as soon as possible, which necessitate the establishment of a new landfill site to serve the town.
