ProposalDescription: 

Silver Stream-Dubeni Stream Crossing, Dubeni, CHDM, EC

Expanded_Motivation: 

Phila-EHS has been appointed by the consulting engineers, Eyethu, on behalf of the project proponent, the CHDM, to manage the HIA for the Silver Stream-Dubeni Stream Crossing development at Dubeni village (near Queenstown), CHDM, Eastern Cape. The HIA is done in retrospect: In order to have obtained EA a BAR and EMPr were prepared for the development by Terreco in 2010. Although heritage was included, in part, in environmental documentation, it does not comply with requirements of the NHRA 1999 or minimum standard requirements as stipulated by the SAHRA and the EC PHRA. Nor was heritage assessed by relevant professional heritage practitioners. ArchaeoMaps and Rob Gess Consulting were appointed by Phila-EHS to conduct the Phase 1 HIA, including an archaeological and palaeontological assessment. The Silver Stream-Dubeni Stream Crossing development is situated at general development co-ordinate S31°44’34.7”; E27°00’54.9”, in northern Dubeni village. Development comprises: o The construction of a new 76m long single lane bridge across the Silver Stream River; o Realignment of a combined 300m access road to connect the existing access road with the new bridge (and upgrading of an approximate 3km access road); and o Construction materials for the project were to be sourced from 2 borrow pits: SS-D_BP01: S31°45’38.5”; E27°01’12.5” and SS-D_BP02: S31°45’06.8”; E27°00’22.6”.
