ProposalDescription: 

A basic assessment process was followed for environmental authorisation (EA). The EA is for the proposed development of New Transmission Lines, Switching Station and Access Roads, located approximately 15 to 26 km east of the town of De Aar, Northern Cape Province.

Expanded_Motivation: 

The Draft Basic Assessment Report (BAR) was available for public review and comment, taking into consideration Chapter 2 Regulation 3 (1); (2) and (3) of the NEMA, 1998 (Act No. 107 of 1998). Members of the public, local communities, and stakeholders were invited to comment on the Draft BAR which was available for public review and comment, from Wednesday, 27 July 2022 until Friday, 26 August 2022 (both days inclusive). Please note: In 2021, the Applicant applied for the development of an up to 400 kV Transmission Line and Switching Station, which received EA. This application is being submitted by the same Applicant as the route previously assessed deviates from the De Aar 2 South WEF to the Wag 'n Bietjie MTS instead of to the existing Eskom Hydra Substation. The previous SAHRIS CASE ID is: 15647. EA was granted to the Applicant on 19 January 2023
