Proposal Description
Thaba Stone (Pty) Ltd holds a mining right (DMRE Ref No: FS 30/5/1/2/2/195 MR) to mine aggregate from an 80.9896 ha area that extends over Portion 2 and the Remaining Extent of the farm Uitkomst No 558 in the Thaba ‘Nchu District of the Free State. The mining right is valid until 19 May 2040 upon which it can be renewed.
The 2008 EMPR for Thaba Stone Quarry predates the NEMA EIA Regulations, 2014 (as amended) and does not fully comply with Appendix 4 of GNR 982. Thaba Stone Quarry has since made various changes and/or improvements on site, and the 2024 environmental performance assessment / environmental audit report (EPA) therefore recommended that the environmental management programme (EMPR) should be amended/updated to adequately manage and/or mitigate the environmental impacts associated with the activity as well as ensure compliance with the requirements of Appendix 4 of GNR 982 (as amended).
