Ann: Mining Right Application Update, page-72

It’s almost like she wanted to get a clarification on something so she just didn’t just rubber stamp it and picked this.
Rand water put in an appeal, this is their standard practice to any development and its to much sure their infrastructure is being considered and is front and centre with the developers. The company did their geotechnical surveys and found they could operate within 50m of the pipeline, in their EIS they committed to staying 100m away from the pipeline. Rand water don’t have an issue as they have been in discussions with the company for a while and the company has assured Rand water their pipe line through the property is WWI’s responsibility, if they damage it they fix it. If push came to shove the company will rebuild the pipeline where the minister wants it if that’s what it takes to get the MR but that doesn’t seem to be the issue, she just wants some clarification.
I would be concerned if it were a dust and or noise issue she wanted more environmental studies undertaken.
Still not what we wanted today.
