ProposalDescription: 

Quantum Foods proposes the expansion of a poultry farm that will be expanded from approximately 30 000 to 60 000 chickens (rounded up) on Bulhoek Farm, near Swartruggens, North West Province. It is expected that there will eight (8) new chicken layer houses constructed each with a footprint of either 60 m x 13.5 m or 100 m x 12 m depending on the site. Waste removal: After the quarantine period on the farm, the chicken carcasses will be taken to the local zoo and the remaining general waste will be disposed of a registered landfill site. The chicken manure is collected by an external farmer to use as fertilizer. Water source: The water sources presently on site are three (3) boreholes that supply approximately 228 742.31 m3/month. The three (3) reservoirs present on site have a capacity of approximately 100 000 litres. Sewage and wastewater: Sewage on site is kept in holding tanks until it is removed by a service provider. Wash water is currently disposed of in the field. However, Quantum Foods proposes the development of thirteen (13) evaporation ponds (each being 25m2) to treat the wash water.
