ProposalDescription: 

A Heritage Scan of heritage resources at the site of the Sandile Water Treatment Works reservoir construction on British Ridge, Keiskammahoek, Eastern Cape Province

Expanded_Motivation: 

Amatola Water is upgrading the capacity of the Sandile WTW and associated bulk water supply infrastructure, in preparation of supplying the Ndlambe Bulk Water Supply Scheme. The expansion of the Sandile WTW is done in two phases: Phase 1 upgrading the capacity to 60Ml/d (which would make allowance in its works for the next Phase's expansion), and Phase 2 to upgrade the capacity to the ultimate requirement of 90Ml/d. As part of Phase 1, a new 16Ml reservoir is currently being constructed at British Ridge west of King Williamstown neat Keiskammahoek, Eastern Cape Province. AGES Eastern Cape was appointed to conduct site monitoring for the construction of the reservoir and an access road at British Ridge. During site monitoring, potentially sensitive heritage resources such as a cluster of stone wall structures were encountered on the reservoir construction site. Unfortunately, no heritage assessment was conducted of the Sandile Water Treatment Works site at British Ridge during the planning phases, and these heritage features were never documented. Subsequently, the Heritage Unit of Exigo Sustainability was requested to conduct a heritage scan of the site, in order to assess the site and rate potential damage to the heritage resources, as well as provide recommendations as to the immediate future of the site in terms of heritage management.
