Includes bibliographical references. Sand, an important input to the construction industry, is extensively mined from the environment leading to depletion of the resource as well as damage to riparian habitat and the alteration of river beds and banks. Sand mining in South Africa is controlled by a complex regulatory system that can be distilled into three main themes: mineral regulation; environmental regulation; and land use planning regulation. In this thesis, it is hypothesised that sand mining is subject to all three regulatory themes equally. In practice, however, the regulatory system is skewed in favour of mineral regulation with the effect that the latter two themes are effectively ignored by sand miners. 2014-07-30T18:01:49Z 2014-07-30T18:01:49Z 2012 Master Thesis Masters MPhil http://hdl.handle.net/11427/4475 eng application/pdf Institute of Marine and Environmental Law Faculty of Law University of Cape Town |
