Finkenstein has a total area extent of 4994 hectares of which Moonraker Outdoor Adventures Rest Camp (Pty) Ltd,
occupies 2000 hectares of the farm.
The renovated farmstead, Farm Finkenstein, previously used for farming, has been restored and today consists of 12
(twelve) wooden cabins with a capacity to accommodate 10-30 guests per day.
The rest camp provides a range of services and activities extending from outdoor adventures such as hospitality
management training, educational tours, animal husbandry facilities, self-catering open-door kitchen and swimming
pool. Other activities offered include hiking, mule trails and mountain biking, via different routes of up to 60km in the
wilderness area (located on the southern portion of the proposed development where tracks have been restored and
maintained to have the least possible impact on the environment).

6 ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT MEASURES
6.1 WATER PERMITS AND LICENCE
The Water Act No. 54 of 1956 governs the use of water resources in Namibia and is the enforceable piece of legislation
for water related matters. The Water Resources Management Act (2013), passed but pending regulations (not
enforced), provides an improved framework for managing water resources based on the principles of integrated water
resource management, while not enforced it is considered best practice to adhere to the stipulations while ensuring
compliance to the Water Act of 1956 is also maintained.
Should water not be sourced directly from the City of Windhoek (for example from a private borehole), a licence to
abstract water is required in terms of the Water Act. Moonraker Outdoor Adventures Rest Camp (Pty) Ltd makes use of
two boreholes of which water abstraction permits will be applied for.
6.2 WASTEWATER DISCHARGE PERMIT
A discharge permit will be applied for at the Ministry of Agriculture Water and Forestry for the operations of the
wastewater treatment system and the discharge of treated effluent to the environment. The proponent is required to
ensure that non-hazardous wastewater is correctly connected into the appropriate wastewater system and that no
hazardous waste is disposed in the wastewater system. In the event that the project takes it upon itself to discharge
effluent via another means the proponent must ensure that all documentation, permits and measures are in place
before discharge occurs, including obtaining the relevant effluent discharge permit in terms of the Water Act to be
applied for at the Ministry of Agriculture Water and Forestry (MAWF). The proponent discharges domestic effluent via
French drain system which is sealed hereby ensuring not to contaminate the ground water.
In order to obtain an effluent wastewater, permit the proponent should have the following information and complete
the application form contained in Appendix B:
- Specification of the treatment system (type of technology)
- Description of major activities resulting in effluent generation
- List of contaminants (analysis of effluent samples)
- Effluent quality
- Points of discharge
- Show the present average quantities of incoming water, recycled water, final outflow, and
- Where final effluent discharged.
A number of potential environmental impacts may occur during the operations of the facilities. Potential impacts are
managed through individual management plans that have been developed to minimise these impacts and provide a
management framework for the Proponent. A summary of each management plan is provided below:
- Surface and Ground Water Quality Management Plan - Surface water and Groundwater management
measures including controls and measures to avoid contamination of water sources.
- Waste Management Plan - Procedures for the appropriate management of waste materials.

7 SURFACE AND GROUNDWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN
7.1 INTRODUCTION
Chemical and waste spills must be contained so as not to contaminate the soil or groundwater. Any contact with
groundwater must be treated with exceptional care and reported immediately, so as to minimize the potential for
contamination of an aquifer. It is important to limit the potential for wastewater seepage to groundwater.
This Surface and Groundwater Management Plan outlines appropriate surface and groundwater water management
measures, monitoring programs and reporting procedures to be implemented.
7.2 OBJECTIVES
This Surface and Groundwater Management Plan has been prepared to minimise potential impacts on surface and
groundwater resulting from the operations of the project. It is important to report any contact with or contamination
of groundwater to the environmental officer as soon as possible.
7.3 RESPONSIBILITIES
WORKFORCE AND ALL CONTRACTORS
- Required to take all reasonable measures to prevent the discharge of sediments and pollutants from the site
in to surface and groundwater sources. Report any contact with groundwater to the manager.
7.4 SURFACE AND GROUNDWATER MANAGEMENT MEASURES
The Surface and Groundwater Management measures are designed to minimise the runoff of sediment-laden or
polluted water into the surrounding environment. Operational activities that could potentially alter natural surface
water and groundwater quality include:
- Chemical spills
- Refuelling
- Seepage of wastewater into groundwater
- Poor resource stewardship practices.
The following requirements are to be met to ensure that groundwater is not contaminated:
- All potentially contaminated runoff is to be directed to an adequately sized siltation basin before assessing
the quality and gaining authority for discharged to the environment.
- Oil and chemicals must be safely stored and removed.
- Any contact with groundwater must be treated with exceptional care and reported immediately, so as to
minimize the potential for contamination of an aquifer.
- If any groundwater is intersected operations must be temporarily stopped, the hole (with the water) must be
photographed and further instruction sought from the proponent and the environmental officer.

8 WASTE MANAGEMENT PLAN
8.1 INTRODUCTION
The activities at the project will generate both solid and liquid waste. The potential types of waste generated at the
project are typical for domestic home operations. Operational waste will include chemical waste such as spent dye and
inks, hydrocarbon waste from servicing of vehicles etc, that must be handled by registered waste disposal units.
8.2 OBJECTIVES
This Waste Management Plan has been prepared to ensure the proper storage, transport, treatment and disposal of
waste and where possible will follow the waste hierarchy, which encourages waste avoidance and waste reduction
followed by reuse, recycling and reclamation, before waste treatment and waste disposal.
8.3 ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
WORKFORCE AND ALL CONTRACTORS
- Required to ensure that all waste generated during operational activities is removed and disposed of accordingly including providing evidence in the form of waste transfer receipts for the waste moved off site
- Ensure no windblown rubbish pollutes the environment, and
- Remove waste on a regular basis to prevent vermin.
8.4 SOLID WASTE
The project has a recycling system in place whereby reducing its impacts associated with solid waste generation. Where possible the proponent will implement measures to reduce, reuse and recycle waste generated as part of the operations of the project. Waste will be controlled through prevention and mitigation measures as follows:
- Reduce, reuse and recycle where possible
- Storage of domestic waste on site may result in the attraction of unwanted scavengers and should be removed as soon as is feasible
- Solid waste shall be stored in an appointed area in covered, tip-proof metal drums/skips for collection and disposal, and
- Chemical contaminated solids have the potential to cause contamination to the soil, ground and/or surface water, thus correct storage and disposal methods are required.
