NOTIFICATION OF SUBMISSION OF AMENDED EIA APPLICATION FORM TO DEA

Notification of submission of amended EIA Application Form to DEA
This letter serves to notify all stakeholders that an amended EIA application form (non-integrated application) was
submitted to the Department of Environmental Affairs (DEA) on 26 March 2018. Due to the changes to the
packaging of the various components of the Medupi FGD Retrofit Project, as explained in the two Bridging
Documents and DEIR, the submission of an amended EIA application form to the DEA was necessary due to the fact
that the EIA application was no longer an application for integrated environmental authorisation and waste
management licence in terms of the National Environmental Management Act, 1998 (Act No. 107 of 1998), as
amended and the Environmental Impact Assessment Regulations, 2010; and the National Environmental
Management: Waste Act, 2008 (Act No. 59 of 2008).
As a result, an application for authorisation in terms of the National Environmental Management Act, 1998 (Act No.
107 of 1998), and the Environmental Impact Assessment Regulations, 2014 only has been applied for through the
submission of the amended EIA Application Form to the DEA. A new DEA reference number will be assigned to
Medupi FGD Retrofit Project EIA process which will be communicated to all stakeholders once received.
The amended EIA Application Form, including the bridging documents and DEIR referred to above, is available for
do load fro Zitholele’s ebsite www.zitholele.co.za/environmental/) under headi g EIA for Medupi FGD .
