ProposalDescription: 

Koukamma Electrification Project, Hermanuskraal, Kou-Kamma LM, EC

Expanded_Motivation: 

The Koukamma Electrification Project, Hermanuskraal, Kou-Kamma Local Municipality, Eastern Cape, comprises the installation of 22kV powerlines in the Hermanuskraal area to provide household electricity to residents. In accordance with NEMA 1998 – Regulations 2014, the project proponent, Eskom, received exemption from EA, but no Phase 1 HIA, in accordance with the NHRA 1999, Section 38(1)(a) was done prior to commencement of the development. On 3 March 2016 Eskom reported to the EC PHRA and ArchaeoMaps, in accordance with the NHRA 1999, Section 35(3), on faunal remains uncovered during the course of pylon (pole) foundation excavations. The Eskom report was made with direct reference to the faunal remains being possible human remains, resultantly (possibly) formally protected by the NHRA 1999, Section 36(1), 36(3)(b) and Section 36(3)(c). In response to the Eskom report the EC PHRA requested an ASI to be conducted. Eskom, through Royal Haskoning DHV, appointed ArchaeoMaps to conduct the ASI. The ASI was done on 24 March 2016, in the company of Eskom and Hermanuskraal community representatives.
