SUPPLEMENTAL EXPERT REPORT OF DR. RANAJIT (RON) SAHU EVALUATING THE UPDATED AIR QUALITY IMPACT ASSESSMENT FOR THE PROPOSED LEPHALALE COAL MINE
This document consists of two distinct parts: a supplemental expert report by Dr. Ranajit (Ron) Sahu evaluating the air quality impact assessment (AQIA) for the proposed Lephalale Coal Mine, and a comprehensive Spatial Development Framework (SDF) for the Lephalale Local Municipality. Dr. Sahu concludes that the mine will cause substantial adverse particulate matter (PM) impacts, exceeding national standards even with mitigation. The SDF section provides a long-term spatial plan for the municipality, focusing on the 'energy hub' of Africa, rural development, and the management of urban sprawl and environmental protection.

APPLICATION FOR AMENDMENT OF THE RELEVANT TOWN-PLANNING SCHEME AND IN TERMS OF SECTION 66 OF AN APPLICABLE PIXLEY KA SEME MUNICIPAL PLANNING LAND USE BY-LAW AND IN TERMS OF THE SPATIAL PLANNING AND LAND USE MANAGEMENT ACT 16 OF 2013 (SPLUMA) FOR THE REZONING OF PORTION 1 OF THE FARM YZERMYN 96 HT
The Centre for Environmental Rights (CER) submitted a formal statement to the Dr Pixley Ka Isaka Seme Local Municipality challenging a land use application for Portion 1 of the Farm Yzermyn 96 HT. The CER argues that the application for rezoning is legally flawed because no town-planning scheme exists for the area, and that the process has failed to meet statutory requirements for public notice and inspection.
