Environmental and Water Legal
Regulatory Compliance and Environmental Authorizations
Our team guides clients through complex regulatory processes, ensuring compliance with the National Environmental Management Act (NEMA), Act 107 of 1998, as amended, and the National Water Act (NWA), Act 36 of 1998.
We provide legal support in obtaining Environmental Authorizations (EA) and Water Use Licenses (WUL) under Section 21 of the NWA, which are essential for sectors such as mining, agriculture, civil infrastructure, and renewable energy.
Our consultancy specializes in NEMA’s procedural requirements and the administrative law framework for activities subject to environmental impact assessments (EIAs), with a strong focus on facilitating authorizations in line with the Mineral and Petroleum Resources Development Act (MPRDA), Act 28 of 2002.
