The SAHRA issued a comment on the revised Draft Basic Assessment Report (DBAR) on the 6th March 2023, indicating minor additions to be made, specifically indicating that the same mitigation measures for shipwreck material need be employed for other heritage resources such as fossil material. A small sentence has been added that addresses this in the FBAR on page 169, 187, and in the accompanying Environmental Management Plan (EMP) on page 23, and as such, the SAHRA is satisfied with the mitigation measures for tangible heritage resources.The SAHRA reiterates though, that should any heritage resources be encountered, that works in that area must cease immediately and the heritage officer assigned to this case must be contacted (Ruan Brand, 021 462 8673), who will then provide guidance on how to proceed.Please note that all updates and/or changes to the project, supporting documentation, correspondence, reports, or any other work relating to the project must be uploaded to the case on SAHRIS to provide SAHRA with the opportunity to comment. SAHRA does not accept emailed documents or hard-copy documents received via post.
