Request for Exemption from a Heritage Impact Assessment for the Proposed Extension of 132kv Eskom Majuba Substation and Associated Infrastructure, Pixley Ka Seme Local Municipality, Mpumalanga. The locality of the development is flat, with a wetland zone and watercourse to the west of the power plant. For a heritage significance assessment, the existing power plant itself dates to the recent past, and the surrounding buffer has been used as a temporary stockpile area and for the placement of temporary structures. From an archaeological perspective, no material dating to the Stone Age and Iron can be expected in the original context.
