This annual report details dust deposition monitoring at the Eskom Hendrina Power Station from April 2014 to March 2015. Using a network of twenty single-bucket monitors, the study measured dust fallout rates against the South African National Dust Control Regulations, 2013. The findings indicate that the vast majority of sites remained within residential limits, with only two non-residential sites recording temporary exceedances.

• The dust monitoring network consisted of twenty single-bucket monitors commissioned in April 2014, achieving 100% data availability for the period from April 2014 to March 2015.
• Most dust fall measurements fell within the residential category (99%), with only two instances of non-residential category levels recorded.
• Two non-residential sites exceeded the residential dust fall limit during specific months: Coal Stockyard 2 in August and Coal Stockyard 3 in July. These exceedances were deemed permissible due to the sites' non-residential classification.
• All monitoring sites recorded annual average dust fall rates below the residential threshold limit. The highest annual average was 306 mg/m²/day at Coal Stockyard 2, and the lowest was 52 mg/m²/day at Quarry 1.
• Meteorological data from the Ermelo weather station showed that winds predominantly blew from the East during the monitoring period. Total annual rainfall for April 2014 to March 2015 was 466 mm, with the highest monthly rainfall occurring in December 2014 (111.4 mm) and no rainfall recorded in May and July 2014.
