However, the updated second HIA is similar to the first updated version and does not address the potential impact of the current proposed development on heritage resources within the project area.SAHRA request that the applicant undertakes an updated HIA to assess the impact of the proposed Solar Energy Generation Facility at the Rhovan mining Operations as the submitted reports do not address the potential impact of the solar development on heritage resources. A project specific HIA must be undertaken.Further comments will be issued upon receipt of the above requested report and the submission of the draft EIA with appendices.
