NamPower would therefore like to apply for the issue ECC for Omaere - Dorsland and associated infrastructures to comply with the Environmental Management Act (Act 7 of 2007) and its regulations. The Omaere - Dorsland Reticulation route runs north-westwards and southwards from Omaere Substation with many T/Off lines to various farms and other supply points in the area to the east of Gobabis in Omaheke region. The Omaere - Dorsland electrical reticulation system has a total length of 412.9 km and it has towers constructed with wooden pole structures.
