6.8 STRATEGIC SERVITUDES UNDER INVESTIGATION<br />

All the line projects and new substation projects that are proposed in the document need to go through a full<br />

environmental impact assessment (EIA) process before implementation. This process includes public participation<br />

meetings, which are advertised in the media. Concerns of the public and affected parties are addressed at the public<br />

participation meetings. <strong>Eskom</strong> Holdings will not commence construction of any line or substation without the EIA<br />

process (Record of Decision being signed and servitudes acquired) being concluded.<br />

The proposed lines shown in various schematics in this document give an estimation of where various proposed lines<br />

will run. The outcome of the EIA process will determine the exact position of the lines. The projects in this document<br />

are at various stages of the EIA process.<br />
