© CSIR Important issues that need to be addressed by the EIA 2. Methodology to address/investigate these issues 3. Further information required Main aspects of presentation:

© CSIR Important issues that need to be addressed by the EIA Mainly the intake basin, but also the pipelines crossing the coast Drivers of coastal processes: winds, waves, currents, (tides) Coastal processes: e.g. marine & aeolian sediment transport Coastal dynamics: beach profile, shoreline evolution, sed. composition Others: backshore area/dunes, sedimentation, dredging?, construction damages, mitigations?, etc.

© CSIR Methodology to address/investigate these issues Mainly desktop, qualitative Available information, literature, site visit, etc. Understanding of local processes & dynamics Limited modelling (previous presentation) Limited quantification, estimates Accretion? Erosion? Sedimentation?

© CSIR Further information required Coastal topographic survey (incl. surf zone) Nearshore sediment characteristics Proposed construction methods (basin, pipelines) Structure dimensions (& locations) (Elevations of recorded storm wave runups?)
