Proposed Wind and Solar (Photovoltaic) Energy Facilities on Kangnas Farm near Springbok in the Northern Cape: Final EIR 132
• Comply with the various pieces of legislation controlling the use of hazardous
substances at a construction site.
4.4.12 Dust impacts
Construction vehicles are likely to make use of the existing farm roads to transport equipment
and material to the construction site. Earthworks would also be undertaken. These activities
would exacerbate dust especially in the dry winter months.
This potential impact is considered to be of medium magnitude, local extent and short term and
therefore of low (-) significance, without mitigation and very low (-) significance with mitigation
for both proposed wind and solar energy facilities. No difference in significance would result
from the proposed wind alternatives.
The following mitigation measures are recommended:
• Implement measures as provided in the EMP, which includes procedures for dealing
with dust pollution events including watering of roads, etc.
4.5 SUMMARY OF POTENTIAL IMPACTS
A summary of all the potential impacts from the proposed projects assessed above is included
in Table 4.7 and
