DESIRÉE RORKE@dezzierorke

Local government clinics in Ca-pe Town can’t keep up with thedemand for a new birth control

device.The device reduces a woman’s vi-

sit to the clinic for birth control toonce every three years, as opposedto every two or three months.

Implanon, a hormone releasingimplant, was introduced nationwi-de by national health minister DrAaron Motsoaledi in April this year,and has met with an overwhelmingresponse in the Western Cape, saysprovincial health departmentspokesperson Jo-Anne Otto.

The implant is a flexible plasticrod about the size of a matchstickwhich is inserted into the upperarm. Through the slow release ofprogesterone, it prevents womenfrom becoming pregnant.

Although new to South Africa, Im-planon has been used in many Euro-pean countries for a number of ye-ars and, according to the provincialhealth department, is a preferredform of birth control for many wo-men. “In the Cape Winelands area,over 2000 women have elected to ha-ve the Implanon inserted,” said Ot-to.

In explaining the lapse in timesince the roll-out in April to the offi-cial announcement last week, Ottosays: “This incredible response ex-ceeded availability of the device andit was decided to wait until logisti-cal issues were resolved before ad-vertising the availability again.”

How it worksDue to a local anaesthetic admis-

tered before the implant in inserted,the small operation is virtuallypainless. The whole process, inclu-ding counselling and paperwork, ta-kes about 30 minutes to complete.The implant is safe for use by wo-men of all ages and can be insertedstraight after delivery, allowing themother to decide when she is readyto have another baby.

“Implanon offers protection forup to three years and can be easilyremoved should the woman decideto have a baby before that. Normalfertility returns within a few weeksof removal of the device,” said Otto.

Every city clinic and maternityunit has a trained nurse “so no wo-man needs to find herself in the diffi-cult position of an unplanned preg-nancy,” said provincial health mi-nister Theuns Botha last week.

According to the official Impla-non website, it contains no estrogenandprevents pregnancyby stoppingthe release of an egg from the ova-ries. It also changes the consistencyof the mucous in the cervix, preven-ting the sperm from reaching the

egg.According to the website, clinical

studies indicate a woman’s chancesof getting pregnant are less than onefor every 100 women who use Impla-non for one year.

Side effectsAs with most hormonal contra-

ceptives, the most common side ef-fects include changes in menstrualbleeding, mood swings, weight gain,abdominal cramps and a low sexdrive.

Some women have opted to havethe device removed because of theseside-effects. “It is a simple procedu-re to have the device removed whe-reafter normal hormonal activitywill resume,” says Otto.

“Each woman’s personal healthwill be evaluated before birth cont-rol options are considered.

Nature Reserve within 500m to the north west of the larger Crammix site. Although SANBI Biodiversity GIS defines this area as being transformed due to the mining and development activities in the area, relatively good patches of fynbos vegetation remain on and abutting the larger Crammix site and are listed in the City of Cape Town’s Biodiversity Network. These remnants however, shouldn’t be affected by the decommissioning activities as the activities will be undertaken in already disturbed/mined areas, on the southern section of the Crammix site.

3.2 A copy of the site closure audit report must be submitted to this office for record purposes.

3.3 Potable water must not be used for dust suppression; water can be used from the Crammix quarry water bodies for this purpose.

3.4 Working hours must be specified in the Environmental Management Plan (“EMP”) to avoid confusion

3.5 It must be clarified who the “reasonable professional” who will be present when tank removal is in process referred to in Section 5.1 (b) and 5.5 (b).

3.6 The traffic speed limits for the site must be specified in Section 5.10 (d).

3.1 SEC confirmed that Section B7 of the Final BAR will be revised to include reference to the Braken Nature Reserve 500metres to the North West of the larger Crammix Bricks site.

3.2 SEC confirmed on behalf of Chevron that following the decommissioning and correct disposal of the tanks and associated equipment located at Crammix Bricks, a copy of the site closure audit report will be submitted to the City of Cape Town for record purposes.

3.3 SEC confirmed that the DMP compiled for the decommissioning activities includes the requirement to utilise quarry water bodies for dust suppression purposes.

3.4 SEC confirmed that the EMP will be revised to include specific working hours on site. SEC confirmed that working hours on site will be between 08h00 and 17h00 on Monday to Friday only and no work will occur on weekends.

3.5 SEC confirmed that Section 5.1 (b) and 5.5 (b) of the EMP will be revised to identify the site assessment/ risk assessment practitioner as the “responsible professional” who will be present when the tank removal is in process.

3.6 SEC confirmed that the Final BAR and EMP will be revised to indicate the traffic speed limits for the site as 60km/hr on Crammix Road and 10km/hr within Crammix Bricks itself.

Comments received from the Directorate: Pollution Management include the following: Introduction: Clarification of the discrepancy in the tank volumes specified in the Draft BAR is required. A1 Chevron must confirm the future zoning considered for the site. A2 Chevron is not aware of any known or reported spills and/or leaks from the tanks; A3 Tests have been conducted on the tanks. The report on the test results has not been submitted with the DBAR.

Directorate: Pollution Management Jahne de Wet

In an email dated 30th September 2014 SEC responded to the comments raised by the Directorate: Pollution Management, stating the following: Introduction: SEC confirmed that the total fuel storage capacity at the site is 203m3. In citing a total of “up to 300m3”, SEC intended to allow for the event that any discrepancy in tank volumes is discovered during site decommissioning; or possibly an undetected underground tank being discovered when an underground utilities clearance survey is undertaken just prior to tank decommissioning. SEC is satisfied that the decommissioning procedure and management measures recommended in the BAR and EMP will be adequate for a total capacity of up to 300m3, in the general fuel storage areas indicated on the site layout plans.

contaminated and as such does not require any remedial intervention work. A5: D:PM noted that the date of sampling in the ECA is 26th April 2014 and date of analysis is 10th May 2014. A detailed methodology of the sampling procedure and storage of samples from collection to analysis is required. A6: The DBAR refers to 2 x HFO ASTs with a capacity of 83m3 yet the ECA states the volumes of the HFO ASTs as 80m3. Clarification of the discrepancy is required. B1: Given that the ECA was conducted prior to the removal of the tanks, as well as D:PM’s concerns raised with regard to the time lapse between the sampling and analysis of the samples as indicated in the ECFR, a following-up contamination assessment is required to confirm the outcome of the baseline ECO conducted once the tanks have been removed. B2: Attention is drawn to the coming into effect of Part 8 (provisions 35041) and the promulgation of the “Norms and Standards for the remediation of contaminated land and soil quality”, of NEM: Waste Act No. 59 of 2008 (NEMWA). B3: Guidance in terms of the requirements of Part 8 of NEMWA will be provided once the outcomes of the follow-up contamination assessment have been communicated to the D:PM. B4: Should the outcome of the follow up contamination assessment indicate a substantial difference in comparison with the baseline assessment, the ECA cannot be accepted. Chevron will be required to ensure compliance with the provisions of Part 8 of NEMWA. B5: The report on the tests conducted on the tanks must be submitted to the D:PM. B6: It must be ensured that Crammix Brick complies with the commitments contained in the DBAR and EMP. B7: An Audit Report for comment by D:PM must be submitted once the decommissioning has been completed.

A1. The Spatial Planner for the District at the City of Cape Town, Mr Gerrit Fourie, confirmed in a telecom on 30th September 2014 that the site is currently zoned Agricultural in terms of the Cape Town zoning scheme which came into effect on March 2013. The site is however to be re-zoned for residential and commercial purposes. Council has received an application on the subject property which will consist primarily of residential units in various forms supported by a smaller commercial node. SEC confirmed that this information will be included in the Final BAR. A2 No response required. A3 As per D:PM’s telecom with Colleen McCreadie on 25th September 2014, the reference to the “tests” in the report refer to tests which will be undertaken whilst the tanks are being removed. They will inform the decommissioning process from the perspective of minimising health and safety and environmental risks. SEC confirmed that it is not necessarily the case that test results would be available or reported on. However, SEC confirmed that any additional site assessment and soil and groundwater sampling required, will be undertaken when the tanks are removed and the reports submitted to D:PM accordingly. A4 No response required. A5 SEC has requested the detailed methodology of the sampling procedure and storage of samples from the applicant and the specialists who undertook the site assessment. This has been sent to D:PM for the Directorates’ review and will be included in the Final BAR. A6: The applicant, Chevron, has confirmed that the HFO tanks are 83m3 in capacity. B1 and B5: In an email dated 26th September 2014, Chevron confirmed that a follow up contamination assessment will be undertaken once the tanks have been removed, the results of which will be forwarded to the Directorate: Pollution Management. B2, B3 and B4: SEC confirmed that Chevron acknowledges that all legislative requirements for remediation of any contamination that may be detected at the site once a further contamination

assessment has been undertaken will be adhered to. B6. The applicant, Chevron, confirms that they will comply with all commitments contained in the Draft BAR and EMP. B7: SEC confirmed that a post-closure audit report will to be submitted to the DEA&DP Land Management and Pollution Management Directorates. This has been included as a condition in the EMP.

Comments received from the Department of Water Affairs include the following: The Department has perused the report and agreed for the

Draft Basic Assessment Report to proceed. If contamination occurs because of the removal of the storage

tanks and other infrastructure, or if contamination is found that was the result of leaks during the operation of the tanks, the Department must be notified immediately.

The tanks must be thoroughly emptied prior to dismantling to prevent any leaks that may enter the stormwater system.

All clean up and rehabilitation measures contained in the emergency response plan must be adhered to at all times.

If pollution of groundwater occurs, a remediation plan must be provided to the Department. This should include groundwater monitoring for a reasonable time after the cleanup operation had taken place.

The precautionary principle applies. If pollution does occur, every effort should be made to reduce the levels of contamination as far as possible.

Good afternoon Jahne, SEC received the Directorate: Pollution Managements’ (D:PM) comment for the proposed decommissioning of fuel tanks at Crammix Bricks on 9th September 2014, thank you. Please see SEC’s response to the Directorate’s comments and queries below, using your numbering system. Introduction The total fuel storage capacity at the site is 203m3. In citing a total of “up to 300m3”, SEC intended to allow for the event that any discrepancy in tank volumes is discovered during site decommissioning; or possibly an undetected underground tank being discovered when an underground utilities clearance survey is undertaken just prior to tank decommissioning: this has happened on past applications. SEC is satisfied that the decommissioning procedure and management measures recommended in the BAR and EMP will be adequate for a total capacity of up to 300m3, in the general fuel storage areas indicated on the site layout plans. A1. The Spatial Planner for the District at the City of Cape Town, Mr Gerrit Fourie, confirmed in a telecom on 30th September 2014 that the site is currently zoned Agricultural in terms of the Cape Town zoning scheme which came into effect on March 2013. The site is however to be re‐zoned for residential and commercial purposes. Council has received an application on the subject property which will consist primarily of residential units in various forms supported by a smaller commercial node. This information will be included in the Final BAR. A2: No response required. A3: As per D:PM’s telecom with Colleen McCreadie on 25th September 2014, (as attached), the reference to the “tests” in the report refer to tests which will be undertaken whilst the tanks are being removed. They will inform the decommissioning process from the perspective of minimising health and safety and environmental risks. For example, testing the tank manholes for vapour prior to commencing with the decommissioning process. It is not necessarily the case that test results would be available or reported on. However, SEC confirms that any additional site assessment and soil and groundwater sampling required, will be undertaken when the tanks are removed and the reports submitted to DPM accordingly. A4: No response required. A5. SEC has requested the detailed methodology of the sampling procedure and storage of samples from the applicant and the specialists who undertook the site assessment. This has been attached for D:PM’s review and will be included in the Final BAR. A6: The applicant, Chevron, has confirmed that the tanks are 83m3 in capacity.
