240216002826 - PROPOSED MIXED-USE TOWNSHIP DEVELOPMENT ON PORTION X, HENTIES BAY TOWNLAND NO. 133, HENTIES BAY, ERONGO REGION, NAMIBIA

The Environmental Clearance Certificate (ECC) is sought for the proposed mixed-use township development on Portion X, Henties Bay Townland No. 133, in the Erongo Region of Namibia. This certificate is necessary to obtain official approval from regulatory authorities, specifically the Ministry of Environment, Forestry & Tourism, confirming that the proposed development complies with environmental regulations and standards. The ECC serves as documentation that the proposed development will undergo a thorough Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) process, which evaluates the potential environmental, social, and economic impacts of the project. By obtaining the ECC, the developers demonstrate their commitment to responsible environmental management and sustainable development practices. Furthermore, the ECC provides assurance to stakeholders, including government agencies, local communities, and investors, that the proposed development has been carefully planned and designed to minimize adverse environmental impacts and promote long-term environmental sustainability. It also facilitates compliance with legal requirements and ensures that the development aligns with national and international environmental conservation objectives.
