BACKGROUND AND INTRODUCTION
On the 5th April 2016, the BBC hosted a Round table discussion with the Department of Science and Technology to discuss opportunities for business within the Science and Technology domain under the umbrella of the DST‘s entities. During the discussion, it was agreed that further discussions should take place between the parties (DST and BBC) to further explore opportunities for collaboration in order to
promote and support the growth of business within the Science and Technology sector. The BBC further endorsed the exploration of the working relationship with the DST, hence meeting and workshops with
senior officials of the Department (and thus this collaborative partnership proposal).

emissions from international civil aviation (i.e.
civil aviation flights that depart in one country and
arrive in a different country),
• above the 2020 levels,
• taking into account the following principles • Special Circumstances and Respective Capabilities
(SCRC);
• non-discrimination; and
• Fair and equal opportunity
CORSIA design elements
1 Phased Implementation as follows:
• Pilot phase (2021- 2023) voluntary participation by States:
• As of 6 October 2016, 65 States, representing more than 86.5% of
international aviation activity, volunteered to participate in the
CORSIA from its outset.-Kenya and Burkina Faso from Africa
• First phase (2024-2026) applicable to States that voluntarily participate in
the pilot phase; and
• Second phase (2027- 2035) mandatory to all States: • that have an individual share of international aviation activities in Revenue
Tonne Kilometres (RTKs) in year 2018 above 0.5% of total RTKs;
• whose cumulative share in the list of States from the highest to the lowest
amount of RTKs reaches 90% of total RTKs;
Phased implementation exempted for the following
States:
• Least Developed Countries (LDCs);
• Small Island Developing States (SIDS); and
• Landlocked Developed Countries (LLDCs) unless they
volunteer to participate in this phase.
Exempted States encouraged to voluntarily participate in the scheme.
2 Applicability (Supports differentiation)
Shall apply to all aircraft operators on the same routes between States
as follows:
• a) all international flights on the routes between States, that are
included in the CORSIA and are covered by the offsetting
requirements of the CORSIA
• b) exempted for all international flights on the routes between a
State that is included in the CORSIA and another State that is not
included in the CORSIA; and
• c) if both States are not included in the scheme, the CORSIA does
not apply
3 Offsetting requirements
The amount of CO2 emissions required to be offset by an aircraft
operator in a given year is calculated every year using the % Sectoral
and % Individual and will be applied as follows:
• i) 2021 - 2023,
• 100% sectoral and 0% individual;
• ii) 2024- 2026,
• 100 % sectoral and 0% individual;
• iii) 2027- 2029,
• 100 % sectoral and 0% individual
Offsetting requirements Cont.
• iv) 2030 -2032,
• at least 20% individual, with the Council recommending to the
Assembly in 2028 whether and to what extent to adjust the
individual percentage; and
• v) 2033 -2035,
• at least 70% individual, with the Council recommending to the
Assembly in 2028 whether and to what extent to adjust the
individual percentage;
4 Review of the CORSIA implementation
• will start in 2022 and will be conducted every three years.
• will involve:
a) assessment of progress towards achieving the ICAO’s global
aspirational goal; the scheme’s market and cost impact on
States and aircraft operators and on international aviation;
b) consideration of the scheme’s improvements, in particular its
long-term temperature goals; and update the scheme’s design
elements to improve implementation, increase effectiveness,
and minimize market distortion; and
c) a special review by the end of 2032 on termination of the
scheme, its extension or any other improvements of the
scheme beyond 2035, including consideration of the
contribution made by other basket of measures
More work to be done on the CORSIA
• Monitoring, Reporting and Verification (MRV);
• Emissions Unit Criteria (EUC); and
• Registries.
Work on the technical material in the above areas
will be developed by CAEP.
• CAEP will also develop the SARPs and related
guidance material for the implementation of the
MRV system, for adoption by the Council by
2018
Impact of joining CORSIA for RSA
• A39 official declaration to support CORSIA- no intention to
participate during the voluntary phases
• RSA RTK is currently 0.53%
• RSA will enter into the CORSIA in 2027 (2nd phase)
• International airlines affected
• New SARPs to be developed by CAEP might require
amendments to the CARs
Analysis done by CAEP- cost of carbon offsetting for operators will
range from
• 0.2- 0.6 % of total revenues from international aviation in 2025; and
• 0.5- 1.4% of total revenues from international aviation in 2035.

Introduction • It’s a fact – to facilitate prosperity, you need to invest
in infrastructure.
• Transport infrastructure is a critical enabler.
• The SA economy has several indicators that points to
an undeveloped rural economy and increasing rural
unemployment.
• The founding spirit (soul) of SA is its rural origin –
what happens to the rural economy determines the
mindset of many in the cities - don’t let that spirit die.

From the NADP
The following initiatives have been identified to help give effect to
the guiding principles over the next five years:
1. Integration of airport network planning into transport and spatial
planning coordination structures
2. Formalisation of selection processes for international, “regional-
international” and national airports, and pre-approval process for
green-field airports
3. Mechanism to reserve land for key long-term airport requirements
4. Development of a preferred option to provide for non-scheduled air
services, general air services, flying training, adventure aviation
and non-commercial aviation within the national airport network
5. Development of a knowledge management system and DOT
capacity to inform airport network planning
From the NADP (cont’d)
6. Development of airport planning technical capacity at a national
and provincial government level that can support individual airport
planning
7. Development of a detailed guide to support airport development
and planning within their surroundings
8. Exploration of potential mechanisms to involve the private sector in
airport planning and design
9. Joint identification with relevant entities of the most viable
approach to securing funding to support airside safety and security
compliance for airports
10. Collaboration to create networking and information sharing
platforms for airport designers and planners
Rural Airport Development Why not?... As long as we remain remote, we remain suppressed as far as our
potential. —Co-chair, Okanogan Area Alliance 2005 Committee

“Air transportation is the preferred choice for business and industry decision makers in the 21st century,” Perdue said. “Our economic development efforts will benefit greatly from accessible rural airports throughout Georgia.” Gov. Purdue (Georgia State), SMALLBIZSURVIVAL.COM, JUL 2006 STUDY REFERENCE: DETERMINING INFRASTRUCTURE NEEDS FOR RURAL MOBILITY: FUNCTIONS AND BENEFITS OF RURAL AIRPORTS IN WASHINGTON. By Jon Newkirk and Ken Casavant, Department of Agricultural Economics Washington State University. Prepared for the Aviation Division Washington State Department of Transportation, July 2002.
Rural Airport Development
1. Enhanced Quality of Life
Flights utilizing rural airports serve the
recreation, family, community, economic
development, business and commerce, law
enforcement, national defence, emergency
and disaster response, medical and basic life
support, policy access and development, and
other vital interests of rural communities. While
difficult to quantify, an overarching benefit of
rural airports is that the quality of life in rural
communities is enhanced.
Rural Airport Development
2. Access to Specialized Professional Services In today’s economic environment, rural communities cannot stay
isolated and still hope to survive.
To maintain economic viability, rural communities must maintain
access to urban centres for banking, commerce, law, engineering,
medicine, government, and other specializations.
Many businesses will not consider moving to a community if it
does not have an airport.
Air access is important to attend hearings, for contractual
negotiations, solving engineering problems, etc., and for securing a
part or piece of equipment needed for local economic activities. Time
is often our scarcest commodity, and air transport is critical.
Rural Airport Development
3. Improved Quality of Health Care
Air ambulance service from rural airports to
urban medical centres has become routine.
Not having an airport provides a serious
impediment to quality medical care for rural
residents.
The routine nature of these flights should not
obscure the fact that the flights are often a
matter of life-and-death for the patients.
The trend of specializations concentrating in
urban centres is expected to continue.
Rural Airport Development
4. Effective Response to Disasters
Rural airports are key facilities for disaster and
emergency response.
Airports are also critical in the use of helicopters
for disaster and emergency response. Airports
are places where flight and landing procedures
and activities are known and approved, and
where parking areas for support vehicles and
emergency personnel are available.
Rural Airport Development
5. Support for Local Business The support of local business is greater than what it appears to
be on the surface. Aircraft used for businesses-related
activities is one of the most common uses of rural airports.
An aircraft is used when time is critical. Time can be critical in
many different situations. For example, when a piece of
equipment breaks down at a manufacturing plant, the entire
operation might be suspended. The more “down time” at a
plant, the less revenue accrues. Airplanes using rural airports
regularly bring time-critical parts to local businesses.
Rural Airport Development
6. Improved Ability to Petition Government The ability of rural residents to participate in critical policy
forums is another benefit of rural airports.
Rural residents have used their airport as a “portal” to visit
major centres.
Representatives, and state administrators have flown into
rural communities to collect information, tour disasters, and
view critical projects. Without the ability to land near the
community, most of these visits would not take place. Time is a
critical commodity for elected officials, as well as for state
agency administrators.
Rural Airport Development
7. Community Life Enriched Airports make their communities stronger. Having an airport as
a focus of a community activity is a plus for that community.
Rural airports can support a wide range of aviation-related
activities, from basic pilot training to maintaining instrument
flight proficiency using locally based aircraft for family
reunions, show political candidates and doctors the
community, provide scenic flights, bring an injured neighbor
back from a distant car accident, provide rides for area
children, etc. Airplanes are used for recreation (the “joy of
flying”).
Rural Airport Development
8. Critical Asset for Economic Development In most rural communities, the probability of economic growth
without an airport is very low. Many firms, when looking for an
expansion or relocation site, require an airport. Rural airports
provide both a focus and a support for economic development
activities. Many rural airports offer reasonably priced space for
business expansion, in addition to the space necessary for
runways, taxiways, and related facilities. Rural airports also
provide access to urban centres where banking, consultants,
suppliers, and a myriad of other necessary professional
services and distribution centres are located.
Also CAASA quote: “Rapid transport of decision makers”
Rural Airport Development
9. Improved Sense of
Wellbeing
A surprising benefit of rural airports is
the improved sense of well-being that
they bring to the residents of rural
communities.
As one person in Omak (rural USA) said, “Our
airport is a sign that we are a progressive
community; we are up-to-date.”

common denominator for nearly all under utilised rural
infrastructure)
• Need focus – not a municipal official with another
portfolio.
• Provinces must drive efforts. It has to become KPI’s.
• Community involvement (PPP model), SMME’s, etc.
