Falcon Seismic EMPr
Project Title: Petroleum Exploration Right – Environmental Management Programme: Seismic Survey, Southern Karoo Basin
Falcon Oil & Gas Ltd (Falcon) is applying for an Exploration Right in terms of the Minerals and Petroleum Resources Development Act No. 28 of 2002 (MPRDA) to conduct natural gas exploration by means of a seismic survey in the southern part of the Great Karoo Basin, South Africa.
An Environmental Management Programme (EMPr), supported by extensive public consultation, was compiled and submitted to the Petroleum Agency of South Africa (PASA) in early 2011. On 29 April 2011, processing of applications was put on hold by the Minister of Mineral Resources. Recently, on 24 November 2014 the Department of Mineral Resources (DMR) informed Falcon that processing of the Exploration Right application would resume and directed Falcon to update the 2011 EMPr and conduct associated public consultation.
The updated (2015) EMPr, including records of the public consultation undertaken, was submitted to the PASA on 27 February 2015.
SRK Project Reference Number: 424473
Official Reference Number: Petroleum Agency of South Africa Reference Number: 12/3/208/1
Project Location: The application area covers approximately 30 000km2 and includes 2 410 farms and farm portions (1 249 title deeds) in the Magisterial Districts of Ceres, Laingsburg, Prince Albert and Beaufort West in the Western Cape, Fraserburg and Sutherland in the Northern Cape and Aberdeen, Graaff Reinet, Jansenville, Willowmore and Pearston in the Eastern Cape. Seismic survey activities are planned for a smaller number of properties within the application area (preliminary plans include about 426 properties).
Status of the Project: The updated (2015) EMPr was available for a 30-day public comment period which closed on 16 February 2015.

The 2015 EMPr, including records of the public consultation process and a Comments and Responses Report, was submitted to the PASA on 27 February 2015.
