The Western Cape Marina Investments (PTY) Ltd submitted an application to the Western Cape Government, Department Environmental Affairs and Development Planning [DEADP] to extend the lapsing period contemplated in terms of Regulation 67 of GN No. R543 for a further 2 years.

DEADP has turned the application down due to applicant’s inability to substantiate fully why they did not comply with legislative requirements as communicated to them by the Department. The applicant was further informed that if they wish to proceed with the proposed development that they must submit a new application in terms of the EIA regulations promulgated under the National Environmental Management Act, 1998.
