The Chairman (Frik Birkenstock),
Dear Frik,
Find attached two photos (IMGA 607 and 610) indicating how the fire breaks have been converted to two track motor ways on the Koedoesveld farm. Find also a ZIP file of the National Veld and Forest Fire Act. The reason why a ZIP file is because the Act is 2MByte big. If you don’t have a ZIP tool let me know then I will send you the full Act.
The reason for this letter is:
1) To introduce the Chairman to conditions of the fire breaks on the Koedoesveld farm.
2) To request from the Chairman why these fire breaks are not maintained according the law
3) To ask the Chairman to peruse the National Veld and Forest Fire Act and to study the following points (so he understand why the share block scheme is in blatant disregard to the law):
a. Interpretations:
i. “community”
ii. “fire”
iii. “fire danger”
iv. “owner”
b. Chapter 4
c. Chapter 7 (especially 25(3)
4) To ask the Chairman to instruct the responsible manager to comply with the Act.
5) To ask the Chairman to implement (or have implemented) procedures to ensure that there is enough time and resources and become proactive to prepare for winter and possible fire outbreaks in the future. Currently there is enough time to clear private party areas in the veld with the share block labour (with game drives using the share block resources) and to fill holes under fences, so it should be no problem to comply with the legal requirements?
Sincerely,
Waterpoort, 0905
