A decision letter from the Limpopo Department of Economic Development, Environment & Tourism dismissing an appeal by the Centre for Environmental Rights against the environmental authorisation granted to the Musina-Makhado Special Economic Zone (SOC) Ltd.

• The Limpopo Department of Economic Development, Environment & Tourism dismissed the appeal and confirmed the environmental authorisation granted to the Musina-Makhado Special Economic Zone (SOC) Ltd on 23 February 2022.
• The current environmental authorisation primarily addresses impacts on the terrestrial environment; air quality and climate change impacts will be assessed when individual factories apply for their own environmental authorisations.
• The decision to grant the authorisation was based on a Heritage impact assessment that identified 30 sites of heritage significance and 19 graves within the project location.
• The authorisation process included an integrated water services study and a water supply feasibility assessment conducted by the Department of Water and Sanitation, resulting in the selection of 'option 2'.
