We are experienced in developing closure plans, associated risk assessments and contingency plans, as well as performance monitoring reports as required in terms of the current legal statutes, especially in terms of the Mineral and Petroleum Resources Development Act (Act No. 28 of 2002), as amended.
We also support our clients in developing rehabilitation implementation plans, which are premised upon the existing regulatory framework closure objectives and strategies that are designed for long term sustainability. As such, our closure plan development processes culminate into objectives that will ensure that the notion of duty of care and environmental responsibility is the flagship of the rehabilitation to be undertaken.
We further support our clients by ensuring:
- That resources are provided for ongoing rehabilitation, environmental management, and closure;
- That financial planning is extended to include financial costs of implementation, rather than just rehabilitation obligations;
- That procedures are developed to stipulate equipment and personnel requirements for all management measures;
- That the review of existing procedures and resource requirements, as well as updating and allocating environmental implementation costs are executed dilligently;
- Effective design of closure planning schedules;
- That closure plans are updated annually and that the financial provision is updated accordingly; and
- That the closure plans are conducted in line with the stipulations of the Mineral and Petroleum Resources Development Act (No. 28 of 2002), as amended.
