ProposalDescription: 

This application involves the following components, including but not limited to, within the footprint applied for: • Guard house/ Access Control for security purposes and for access control. The guardhouse is developed to accommodate guards who will be protecting the water service infrastructure and for controlling the access to both the reservoirs and the WTW; • Main administration building which includes a control room, the laboratory and the main administration areas (i.e., ablutions, workshop and store room); • Sludge lagoons to dry the sludge produced from the WTW; • Machine Room; • A Chemical Storage Area for the safe handling and storage of chemicals delivered to and stored on site; and • Access and Internal Roads.

Expanded_Motivation: 

The OMMP-BRWSP bulk infrastructure plan makes provision for the construction of raw water pipeline systems to the identified target areas. These bulk pipeline systems are now identified by their respective “Phase” number. The relevant bulk pipe that would augment raw water to the Mogalakwena system (i.e., for domestic and mine use) is the proposed Phase 2B pipeline. Phase 2B has been authorised by a revised Record of Decision (rRoD) (Ref: 12/12/20/553) issued in 2006 in terms of the Environmental Conservation Act, (No. 73 of 1989) (ECA). The proposed Water Treatment Works (WTW) are located in two locations along the alignment of Phase 2B+. This phase is an extension of Phase 2B and spans from Pruissen reservoir to Piet-se-Kop. The gravity pipeline has been authorised by Environmental Authorisation (EA) (12/1/9/1-W120) and EA (12/19/1-W131). The OMMP-BRWSP bulk infrastructure plan makes provision for the construction of raw water pipeline systems to the identified target areas. The raw water pipe will continue from the WTW at Mokopane, northwards to the rural town area of Sekuruwe. At this point a second WTW (the Sekuruwe WTW) will be constructed. This WTW will be able to provide potable water to mining clients and residents for various rural villages. The Mokopane WTW is situated approximately 2.5 km southeast of Mokopane Town, near Mogalakwena Landfill, within the jurisdiction of Mogalakwena Local Municipality, of the greater Waterberg District Municipality, in the Limpopo Province. The ultimate capacity of WTW is proposed to be 28Ml/d. The preferred site (indicated in green in Figure 3) is located on Portion 80 of the Farm Piet Potgietersrust Town and Townlands 44 KS, and the property is owned by Mogalakwena Local Municipality. Whereas the alternative site (indicated in red in Figure 3) is situated on Portion 80 of the Farm Piet Potgietersrust Town and Townlands 44 KS, and Portion 69 of the Farm Maribashhoek 50 KS. The development site appears to be in an undeveloped vacant land (which appears to be a greenfield site), surrounded by farmhouses on the west and south area. Agricultural fields are roughly 1 500 km southwest of the site, and a light industrial area is approximately 500 m west of the project site.
