Development Type: 

ProposalDescription: 

Multi Project Services intends to construct the powerline for the above-mentioned project. The powerline will include 679 m MV line which will be connected to the existing pole number VNT309/73 in the area (refer to the Span plan sheets and the Pegging Coordinates for more information) both traversing the farm Grietas Vlakte 500 LQ, Lephalale Local Municipality, Waterberg District of the Limpopo Province.

Expanded_Motivation: 

The project area is currently used for farming purposes and heavily degraded by current land use activities such as the access roads, existing powerline and property boundary fences lines (see photos below). Given the observation that the area is heavily degraded Multi Project Services request the Heritage Compliance Agency to exempt this project from full heritage assessment studies or any further AIA/HIA studies and grant us permission to proceed with the development as proposed. However, should any of the heritage resources, including graves or human remains be encountered or discovered during construction, Eskom shall immediately cease construction, inform SAHRA office, other relevant Department and as soon as possible contract a professional archaeologist to inspect the findings and conduct investigation as prescribed by the Act.
