Air Emissions, Air Quality and Energy Efficiency Monitoring for Prioritisation of Pollution Preventions and Public Health in the Region of Mpumalanga Highveld Conurbation
Viability assessment and outline plan for regional air quality monitoring on the Highveld, including institutional arrangements and information gaps, for industry, regulators and community bodies.
by Prof HJ Annegarn, MA Kneen, M Josipovic & MFF Ferraz | October 2004
A regional monitoring programme was found to be viable and is proposed as a public private partnership covering air emissions, air quality and energy efficiency on the Mpumalanga Highveld. The assessment concluded that the worst health impacts fall on residential areas, driven by inefficient coal burning for heating and by housing sited close to large industry.

Final report of a three year study on rehabilitated South African coal mine soils, testing an invertebrate based addition to conventional rehabilitation, for environmental managers and land use planners.
What this report foundAnts, termites, dung beetles and earthworms are known to improve soil health, but none had been deliberately applied as part of a mine reclamation strategy.

Ants, termites, dung beetles and earthworms are known to improve soil health, but none had been deliberately applied as part of a mine reclamation strategy. Experimental and field scale studies asked whether dung beetles maintain their burial activity, and the soil services that follow, in soils typical of rehabilitated mine land, and set out recommendations for using them alongside existing methods.
