Interim Comment
This application constitutes a section 38 (1) application for approval by SAHRA in terms of the National Heritage Resources Act, no 25 of 1999 (NHRA), as the proposed power line exceeds 300 metres in length. As such SAHRA is providing response in terms of section 38(2) with regards to this application.
The SAHRA cannot make an informed decision on this proposed development because the information provided to this case is not enough to determine decisively that heritage resources will not be disturbed or damaged by the proposed power line construction. In order for SAHRA to process this case, the SAHRA requests that ground level photographs of power line route must uploaded to the case.
Furthermore, the .kml file submitted to the case does not seem map the power line route as it appears in the survey diagram. SAHRA requires a new .kml file to be submitted to the case on SAHRIS before the case is processed further.
