REINFORCEMENT OF SALT ROCK SEA WALL

HeritageAuthority(s): 

ProposalDescription: 

The sea wall located in front of the Salt Rock Hotel, on the Kwa-ZuluNatal (KZN) north coast was significantly damaged following the high sea and storm event experience along the KZN coast in March 2007. Salt Rock Beach Estates cc (the Applicant) received Environmental Authorisation (EA) for the reconstruction of the sea wall in November 2013 (Ref: DC29/0040/08). While the EA authorises the relevant listed activities to reconstruct damaged sections of the sea wall and reinforce the existing wall, the description of the listed activities only dealt with the reconstruction of the new portions the wall. It is the Applicant’s submission that the EA should have been amended in terms of regulation 31 of the Environmental Impact Assessment Regulations, 2014 as the proposed amendments relate to activities that have already been authorised and the changes are intrinsically linked to the development authorised in the EA. This is supported by the coastal engineer who confirmed that reinforcing existing portions of the sea wall will not change the impact significance ratings for impacts as assessed in the Environmental Impact Assessment. The significance of the impacts assessed in the Environmental Impact Assessment would therefore remain unchanged.
