Environmental Management Framework Print

 


The Ekurhuleni Metropolitan Municipality (EMM) is committed to sound environmental management principles and set itself the goal of sustainable development, which balances the protection of the environment with improving the socio-economic well-being of the inhabitants of the area. 

The purpose of the EMF is to provide the EMM and GDACE with a decision support system that will help these authorities to execute their respective mandates in a coordinated, objective and efficient manner.  It is important to note that the EMF will not be a “blueprint” land use plan for the area but a decision support mechanism that takes environmental as well as socio-economic factors into account for each individual decision that has to be made.  The EMF can, however, as a secondary function, provide valuable inputs into local land use plans.
