Pollution Incident at Saldanha Bay Government Jetty as reported by Sea Harvest

Report of Pollution Incident observed and reported by Sea Harvest, please read entire report below.

As Reported by Sea Harvest

Please find attached the following document:

1. Sea water pollution observed from 29/06 – 02/07/2020 at the full length of the Government Jetty, both sides as well as quay side of the Sea Harvest operations plant. Please note that Annexure 3 in this attachment is a dead seal observed between the pollution
2. Observations made at the Slipway, Saldanha on 29/06/2020

It will be appreciated if this pollution can be investigated by relevant authorities, most of it has been cleaned up but this is a continuous problem that we experience. This is quite serious as this oily sheen and pollution on the sea water, affects the quality of the sea water therefore the Sea Harvest Desalination Plant is unable to abstract water and produce potable water for the Sea Harvest operations plant to use.

More of the same, really think you need to escalate the management of the slip way and government infrastructure to AMC for permanent section in minutes. Responsible officials should get some management systems in place, with regular inspections and feedback to AMC.
