Status: 

HeritageAuthority(s): 

Development Type: 

ProposalDescription: 

Pikitup is proposing to establish an integrated waste management facility on Erf 6049 Kaalfontein, Johannesburg, Gauteng Province. The proposed facility will have a total operation area in excess of 500 m2. This proposed facility will aim to contribute to implementing sustainable waste minimisation, reuse, recycling and recovery in the City. The proposed activity will entail storing, sorting of waste and recycling. This proposed site will act as a drop off centre for recyclables such as paper, plastic, cans and e-waste.

Expanded_Motivation: 

Rapid population growth within the City of Johannesburg (CoJ) and associated economic development, which ultimately results in increased waste generation, is the key pressure resulting in the current waste management challenges in the city (Pikitup, 2010 and CoJ, 2008). Increased population further places pressure on the level of service the city can deliver (CoJ, 2008). In terms of the Constitution of South Africa (Act 108 of 1996) and the Municipal Systems Act, 2000 (Act 32 of 2000), the CoJ is mandated to provide waste collection, disposal and cleansing services to all its residents. As stated by the Integrated Waste Management Plan (IWMP) for the City of Johannesburg, City needs to come up with ways of saving/maximising landfill airspace such as:  Waste minimisation and recycling options.  Potential for regional collaboration on new landfill site developments.  Alternative disposal and/or treatment options.
