ProposalDescription: 

Proposed Decommissioning and Closure of the Fe-Cr Waste Disposal Facility at Transalloys (Pty) Ltd in eMalahleni (Witbank) within Nkangala District Municipality, Mpumalanga Province

Expanded_Motivation: 

The Fe-Cr WDF was established in 2006/7 when material was reprocessed historically (by the previous operator: pre-2008). A separate storage and disposal facility was required for the Fe-Cr material which was produced then. This Fe-Cr facility has not been operated / used by Transalloys (Pty) Ltd for disposal for more than ten (10) years. The Fe-Cr facility had a Section 20 permit (Permit number 12/9/11/P4 dated 26 June 2007) issued in terms of the Environment Conservation Act (ECA), 1989 (Act 73 of 1989), as amended. Purpose of application: To obtain a waste management license (WML) for the decommissioning and closure of the Fe-Cr WDF as part of Transalloys’ on-going rehabilitation of its site to minimise potential future impacts on the environment. Motivation: Since Transalloys has not been producing Fe-Cr for the last 20 years, the Fe-Cr facility is not required to remain active. Transalloys (Pty) Ltd intends to decommission and/or permanently close this facility as it currently remains an environmental liability.
