Eldon F. on the Manganese Ore

By

Eldon has a private residence that he has owned for 6 years and estimates his bill for cleaning, accelerated maintenance and loss of value for his asset from the Manganese Ore Facility in the Port of Port Elizabeth to be approximately R28 000.00

Eldon says the Manganese Ore Facility and Tank Farm should move as; “The continual pollution of our property with this black oily dust and the unknown damage to our health is of concern to us. We have noted that there seems to be a lack of effort by the company involved to keep the dust under control – over he past few years, we have noted that the dumps are not sprayed with water as often as they should which in turn allows the dust to be blown over Port Elizabeth. We demand the immediate removal of these dumps to a more acceptable sight at Koega.”

Passionate about Port Elizabeth and definitely NOT packing for Perth. Alan's ethos is epitomised in the words of Nelson Mandela; "I have fought against white domination and I have fought against black domination. I have cherished the idea of a democratic and free society. If need be, it is an ideal for which I am prepared to die." See more articles by Alan.
