ProposalDescription: 

Transnet SOC intends to relocate 19 Graves from the Farm Bloemkrans Portion 12 to Silindile Cemetery at Lothair, Mpumalanga Province. This is to pave of upgrade and expansion of the Railway Line connecting with Swaziland and Richards Bay

Expanded_Motivation: 

Although there are 43 graves in this burial ground 7 graves are more than 60 years old and require SAHRA permitting in terms of Section 36 of the National Heritage Resources Act for their relocation (Thoko Zwane = 3 graves, Regina Mathebula = 3 graves, Msesi Simelane = 1; Besides these there are twelve (12) other graves which have not been claimed suggesting that they are older possibly more than 60 years old. This has entailed the Msukaligwa Local Municipality to act as custodian of the graves for purposes of the SAHRA permitting. A letter of commitment by the local Municipality is therefore attached to the health permit application. South African Resources Agency permitting will be applied for in respect these graves, which brings the total of graves to be covered by the permit to nineteen (19).
