Resumen

These Regulations, made under the Integrated Coastal Management Act, 2008, concern application for and determination of a permit contemplated in section 69(1) of the Act (“coastal waters discharge permit”). An application for a coastal waters discharge permit must be made to the Minister on the application form obtained from the Department of Environmental Affairs. The Regulations set out the minimum information required for assessment of applications. A discharge permit shall be granted or renewed by the Minister. An application for a coastal waters discharge permit to discharge effluent into an estuary may only be granted in exceptional circumstances, and only where it is demonstrated that— (a) such inflows are required to improve or will maintain any applicable resource quality objectives; (b) such inflows will improve the general ecological state of the estuarine system; (c) such inflows will not deteriorate the ecological state of the estuarine system; or (d) the ecological functioning of the estuary has been irreversibly modified in an adverse manner, and the discharge will not lead to a further deterioration of the water quality in the estuary.
