230316001140: The Environmental Clearance Certificate Application for the operation and maintenance of an existing Kokerboom - Nabas 66kV transmission line in //Karas Region
The Kokerboom - Nabas 66kV transmission line was constructed in 1998. The transmission and distribution of electricity is one of the listed activities. However, the line was constructed before the commencement of the Environmental Management Act (Act 7 of 2007) and therefore there was no environmental impact assessment study conducted for the project prior to its development. It is therefore against this background that NamPower intends to apply for the operational Environmental Clearance Certificate in order to comply to the Management Act (Act 7 of 2007) and its regulations.
