Title:
240619004003: Environmental Clearance Certificate for the continued operation of the existing fuel consumer installations at Annunakie Investments in Windhoek Rural, Khomas Region
Publication Year:
2024
Abstract:

The Annunakie Investments quarrying and crushing activities produce durable construction aggregates of various sizes, for road use and general building construction works in the area of Windhoek and surrounding developments. The crusher plant has a capacity to produce 15 000 tons per month of construction aggregates. Presently, there is a short supply of quality construction aggregates for the construction of roads and general buildings in the Windhoek area, due to there being only two major suppliers, namely: the Aris Quarry located south of Windhoek and the City Sand quarry located north of Windhoek. The presence of only two major quarries for the supply of construction aggregates has proven in the past to cause significant project delays and cost overruns due to untimely delivery for such key products arising from imbalances between supply and demand. The establishment and operation of the Annunakie quarry and crusher plant is thus going a long way in curbing or contributing to this supply - demand imbalance. ENGEN Namibia (Pty) Ltd as a leading marketer of liquid fuels and lubricants in the country aims to ensure that all their clients and facilities are compliant with the relevant environmental and industry legislation. It is against this background that Engen has appointed Environam Consultants Trading (ETC) to apply for an Environmental Clearance Certificate (ECC) for this site on their behalf.
