240101002644 - Renewal of the Environmental Clearance Certificate for the Continued Operation of the Existing Retail Fuel Station at Ondalae Ya Elim Growth Point, Elim, Omusati Region

ENGEN Namibia (Pty) Ltd is a leading marketer of liquid fuels and lubricants in the country. The company has invested in a number of retail fuel facilities across the length and breadth of the country. These facilities ensure self-sufficiency to ENGEN in terms of the supply of its products to its entire customer base, thus augmenting its supply chain. One such site is the Retail Fuel Station at Ondalae ya Elim Growth Point at Elim in Omusati Region. The existing service station possesses a valid Petroleum Retail License approved by the Ministry of Mines and Energy and a valid Business Registration Certificate. The service station operations are in accordance with Engen Namibia (Pty) Ltd policies and regulations. In terms of the Environmental Management Act 7 of 2007 (Government Notice No. 29), certain activities may not be undertaken without an Environmental Clearance Certificate (ECC). It is against this background that an ECC was applied for and obtained for this facility. The ECC is valid for a period of three (3) years and has since expired. Engen has thus appointed Environam Consultants Trading (ECT) to apply for the renewal of the ECC on its behalf.
