ProposalDescription: 

The Department of Environmental Affairs (DEA) is assisting the !Kheis Local Municipality to licence the Topline Landfill for Operation. DEA has thus appointed GA Environment (Pty) Ltd as independent Environmental Consultants, to undertake the Basic Assessment (BA) process as part of the Waste Management Licence Process. The Topline landfill is currently operational and receiving general waste. The !Kheis Local Municipality is applying for a Waste Management Licence in order to legally operate the facility, and to ensure that the site adheres to the NEM: WA, 2008 requirements, and other key legislation. The Waste Management Licence will be issued by the Northern Cape Department of Environment, Nature and Conservation. The !Kheis Local Municipality proposes to formally licence the existing Topline landfill site has been operating illegally/without a waste licence. It cannot be clearly confirmed when the operation of the Topline landfill site commenced. It is thus assumed that the landfill was commissioned prior to the establishment of the Minimum Requirements for Waste Disposal by Landfill (DWAF, 1998 2nd Edition) and the promulgation of the National Environmental Management Waste Act (NEMWA hereafter), 2008 (Act No. 59 of 2008 as there is currently no permit available. The Topline landfill site falls within the jurisdiction of Dr ZF Mgcawu District Municipality and the !Kheis Local Municipality. The Topline landfill is located on Erf 2681, Saalskop in Topline. The site is located approximately 100 km south east of Upington and is approximately 20km north west of the Groblershoop town. The site is located south west of the Topline township. The boundaries of the area indicated as that to be licenced is approximately 0.2 km from the edge of the informal settlement and approximately 0.5 km from the boundaries of the residential area. The Licensing of the landfill will ensure that the !Kheis Local Municipality adheres to the requirements of the NEM: WA and that the landfill site will be operated according to Environmental requirements. The correct operation of the landfill will ensure that adverse impacts from the landfill are minimized.
