ProposalDescription: 

A conceptual wetland offset strategy for the Kendal 30-year ADF Project in the Mpumalanga Province. The broad objectives of this report are: 1. To quantify the required wetland offset targets as per the requirements of the SANBI & DWS (2016) guidelines; 2. To identify and assess suitable target wetlands for implementation of the offset; 3. To identify rehabilitation opportunities within the selected target wetlands and develop conceptual rehabilitation and management interventions to address these; and 4. To compile a conceptual wetland offset strategy report for submission to the authorities.

Expanded_Motivation: 

The possible need for a wetland offset strategy was initially highlighted in the wetland baseline assessment (WCS, 2013) undertaken as part of the site selection process for the Kendal 30-year ADF, although the reference was made in relation to an alternate site. During discussions with the Department of Water and Sanitation (DWS) and presentations to the Department on the selected site for the Kendal 30-year ADF, the need for a wetland offset strategy was again highlighted and requested by the DWS. Subsequent to the request by the DWS, two further reports have been produced in attempting to identifying possible target wetlands for the offset strategy, though in both cases the wetlands investigated were found not feasible due to various reasons. This report therefore represents the continuation and culmination of a number of wetland studies.
