ProposalDescription: 

The proposed sewage drainage system comprises of a 12 km of pipeline. The pipeline consists of 200 mm, 250 mm, 355 mm, 500 mm, 630 mm and 710 mm diameter pipelines. The existing concrete pipelines will no longer be in use but will remain underground and a new sewer pipeline will be constructed parallel to the existing sewer pipeline with high-density polyethylene (“HDPE”) pipeline. HDPE pipelines were chosen due to their high life expectancy, durability and good resistance against the chemicals from the sewer sludge. The HDPE pipeline lasts longer regardless of the corrosion attacks. The Dal Fouche portion of the Project includes the following: • Decommissioning of existing pump station and rising main. The pump station will not be demolished. • Decommissioning of the existing gravity sewer (5.0 km). The existing gravity sewer will be left in the ground and will no longer be used. • Construction of 5.0 km of new gravity sewer. The new gravity sewer will be constructed parallel to the existing sewer pipeline. The Impala Mine portion of the Project includes the following: • Decommissioning of the existing gravity sewer (7.305 km). The existing gravity sewer will be left in the ground and will no longer be used. • Construction of a 7.305 km new gravity sewer. The new gravity sewer will be constructed parallel to the existing sewer pipeline.

Expanded_Motivation: 

The proposed layout provides many positive socio-economic benefits with positive impact that will occur during the operational phase of the Project. The positive benefits include: • Creation of Jobs and transfer of skills, • Sourcing of local goods and services, • Improved functioning of the sewerage infrastructure; and • Increased capacity to deal with the anticipated future volumes of sewage as a result of development in the area. The proposed layout (as opposed to the no-go option) is preferred as it possess a low risk to the environment and provides socio-economic benefits.
