230705001673 - Operational Environmental Management Plan (EMP) for the existing Dead Valley Lodge in the Hardap Region.

Dead Valley Lodge has been created as a cooperative agreement between the public and private sector. As such, Sun Karros Lifestyle Safaris (Pty) Ltd and Namibia Wildlife Resorts (NWR) has a Public Private Partnership (PPP) in place for the management of Dead Valley Lodge. An Environmental Management Plan (EMP) was developed for the construction of the Dead Valley Lodge by WV Construction (Pty) Ltd. However, the EMP did not outline any management actions for the resort during the operational phase. Sun Karros Lifestyle Safaris (Pty) Ltd has thus appointed GCS Water Environmental Engineering Namibia (Pty) Ltd (GCS) to apply on their behalf to the Ministry of Environment, Forestry and Tourism (MEFT) for an Environmental Clearance Certificate (ECC) for the existing operations at the site.

Prpject status APPROVED
