A report on a basic assessment relating to cultural heritage resources for the proposed Eskom Kruispunt-Sublime Line, Mpumalanga Province
Summary
Archaetnos cc was appointed by Texture Environmental Consultants to conduct a basic assessment relating to cultural heritage resources for the proposed Eskom Kruispunt-Sublime line. As the name indicates the line will run between the existing Kruispunt and Sublime substations. This is to the south of Emalahleni in the Mpumalanga Province. Two options for the route were surveyed.
The fieldwork undertaken revealed no sites of cultural heritage significance. The main reason for this is the disturbance of the area due to agricultural activities.
From a heritage point of view both alternatives may be used. The proposed development may continue bearing in mind the possibility of finding chance sites.
