On the lower slopes of the Paarl batholith, vineyards are cultivated; but the upper slopes are difficult to reach and to farm. Dams have been built on the top of this batholith as it is easy to tap water and to release it down the mountain by means of gravity. ‘ FIGURE 6 held rope.

Assurances were given that there would be as little disturbance as possible and that, although alien vegetation would be cleared, the natural fynbos would be conserved. Studies showed that the construction would not interrupt the natural drainage systems, but that the quantity and quality of the storm water runoff would be affected. Surface flow would increase due to-the impermeable surfaces and there would be pollution of the water . from the petrol and diesel on the road, Increased erosion in areas where the vegetation had been disturbed would lead to more sediment in the water. It was decided to construct drainage routes to direct storm water into channels, Soon after the road was re-opened, two large boulders fell, but did not reach the road due to the concrete canopy, During July and August 2004, the area experienced heavy rain and poor weather conditions. The intensive rain activated alarms in the central control room and the road was closed to traffic, Although some rockfalls have occurred which have damaged some of the catch fences, thousands of falling rocks have been intercepted which would otherwise have reached the road. “6 {Page ### Page 17 Memo - Gea Coon . ne Lig E. a biT Tt lhe : [1B L bg 8 7 Lhd M pis OO phdod, ok (215) True [aed False ag False 1 it True _ p27 False oa _ isl “Teoprcal Fas fer lies ; _ ; 13.2.
