This dissertation forms part of the requirements for the degree of MSc in Environmental Science and was supervised by Professor R Fuggle, Head of Department of the Department of Environmental and Geographical Science. The dissertation describes and examines the practical application of integrated environmental management (IEM) by analyzing a case study. IEM is a methodology developed in South Africa under the direction of the Council for the Environment, the purpose of which is to incorporate environmental considerations into all aspects of planning and development. A guideline document on the implementation of IEM was published in 1989 (Council for the Environment, 1989(A)), and later updated and a set of six guideline documents was published in 1992 (Department of Environment Affairs, 1992 (A) to (F)). The case study is the proposed development of a rock quarry in a peri-urban area near Johannesburg, South Africa. It was implemented in accordance with the original version of lEM. The availability of the updated guidelines and the experience gained in the case study provided potential for comparison between the original and updated procedures. Other points of relevance regarding the case study are that the site is situated in a rapidly developing area, and could therefore cause significant social impacts; the study was conducted at the most detailed level of the original IEM procedure (Class 1 ); and involved public participation, which has been emphasised in the updated IEM procedure. 2016-02-29T11:59:41Z 2016-02-29T11:59:41Z 1993 Master Thesis Masters MPhil http://hdl.handle.net/11427/17324 eng application/pdf Department of Environmental and Geographical Science Faculty of Science University of Cape Town
