Heritage Contracts and Archaeological Consulting (HCAC) was contracted by Envirolution on behalf of Eskom SOC Ltd to assist in the relocation of graves in the Eros-Vuyani-Neptune 400Kv Eskom Transmission Power Line in the Eastern Cape. The construction of the Eros Vuyani 400 Kv power line has been completed without impacting on the graves in the servitude. Families who resided in the servitude were relocated and subsequently requested that their family graves should be relocated as well. The graves are to be relocated based on cultural requirements as per the family’s requests. Of the identified graves, only grave number 88, 184 and 185 have been indicated to be older than 60 years. This permit is allocated for the relocation of these graves and the unknown graves.
