EMP performance assessment reports are a legal requirement and must be conducted every two years. Harmony conducts these assessments in line with EMP approval conditions. These plans are amended when necessary and resubmitted to the department.
Free State operations: Current EMPs were developed in 2008 and performance assessments against these plans were submitted to the DMR in June 2011 for all operations. Deviations from targeted compliance levels reflect unplanned (in 2008) closures. As these EMPs are being revised to reflect current conditions, and the principles of ISO 14001, compliance levels for Free State operations are expected to improve in FY12.
North operations: All EMPs approved under the old-order Minerals Acts of 1991 have been aligned and approved under the Mineral and Petroleum Resources Development Act 2002. Environmental management systems are being implemented in all our North operations, with some operations already certified, to track compliance with EMP commitments. Implementation of environmental management systems at other operations is ongoing and action plans to address all high-risk impact are under way.
