Case Decision - 367755

Interim Comment

The SA Palaeontological Sensitivity Map indicates that the study area has Very High fossil sensitivity, therefore a field-based palaeontological study is required. The SAHRA 2012 Minimum Standards: Palaeontological Component of Heritage Impact Assessments makes reference to a Letter of Recommendation for Exemption that is to be submitted if there is no likelihood that heritage sites will be impacted. SAHRA awaits the above palaeontological desktop study/ Letter of Recommendation for Exemption completed by a qualified palaeontologist to be submitted before further comments can be issued.
