A completed activity is one which is without Defects which would either delay
or be covered by immediately following work.
(30) The Prices are the lump sum prices for each of the activities on the
Activity Schedule unless later changed in accordance with this contract.
This confirms that Option A is a lump sum form of contract where the work is broken down into activities,
each of which is priced by the tendering contractor as a lump sum. Only completed activities are assessed
for payment at each assessment date; no part payment is made if the activity is not completed by the
assessment date.

he requires the Contractor to include in his activity schedule and be priced accordingly.
Has taken account of the guidance given in the ECC3 Guidance Notes pages 19 and 20;
Understands the function of the Activity Schedule and how work is priced and paid for;
Is aware of the need to link the Activity Schedule to activities shown on his programme;
Has listed and priced activities in the activity schedule which are inclusive of everything necessary
and incidental to Providing the Works in accordance with the Works Information, as it was at the
time of tender, as well as correct any Defects not caused by an Employer’s risk;
Has priced work he decides not to show as a separate activity within the Prices of other listed
activities in order to fulfil the obligation to complete the works for the tendered total of the Prices.
Understands there is no adjustment to the lump sum Activity Schedule price if the amount, or
quantity, of work within that activity later turns out to be different to that which the Contractor
estimated at time of tender. The only basis for a change to the Prices is as a result of a
compensation event.

1. General
The Kriel Power Station is situated approximately halfway between Bethal and Ogies on the
R545, being just over 30 km from each town and 10 km north-west of Kriel town.
2. Climate
Kriel Power Station is situated in a summer rainfall area with an average annual precipitation
of about 750-mm falling almost entirely during the months of October to April. The average
rainfall per month generally exceeds 40 mm during this period, although drought periods do
occur which can last for 20 days or longer. Drought periods occur most frequently during the
months of October/November and March/April. January is statistically the highest rainfall
month with an average monthly rainfall of about 130-mm. June has the lowest rainfall with
an average monthly rainfall of about 7 mm.
Approximately 85% of the annual rainfall occurs in the summer months and heavy falls of
125 to 150 mm occasionally occur in a single day. The annual average number of
thunderstorms is about 75. These storms are often violent with severe lightning and strong
(but short-lived) gusty winds and are sometimes accompanied by hail. This region has
among the highest hail frequencies in South Africa; about 4 to 7 occurrences (depending
mainly on altitude) may be expected annually.
January is normally the hottest month with an average daily maximum temperature of 27°C
with a mean daily temperature in winter being about 16°C. Winter average daily
temperatures vary from 18,5°C maximum to -1°C minimum. The extreme temperatures
recorded range from 34,7°C to minus 12,4°C for the period 1920 - 1984. (Source: Weather
Bureau, Pretoria)
Winds are generally light to moderate except during thunderstorms. Generally the prevailing
wind directions are from the North West during the day and from the east at night. During
daytime, the prevailing winds are from the north-western direction. During night-time, the
prevailing winds are from the north-eastern direction. The highest recorded average wind
speed is 17, 6 km/hour. The average wind velocity over the year is 14, 5 km/hour.
(Source: MSN weather & Weather 24, average records 2008 - 2009.)
4. Relative Humidity
5. Prevailing Winds
Thunder occurs mostly from November to January with average of 35.7 days annually.
a) Hail occurs mostly in December with average of 2.8 days annually.
b) Fog occurs mostly in the winter months with an average of 19 days annually.
c) Snow rarely occurs
d) Cloud coverage is highest in the summer months with annual average as follows:
08:00 = 2.8/8
14:00 = 3.8/8
20:00 = 3.1/8
e) Evaporation for the area is in rage of 75mm to 190mm per month. The highest
evaporation occurs in December, and the lowest in June.
7. Topography
The surface topography of the Kriel area is typical of the Mpumalanga Highveld consisting
in the main of a gently undulating plateau. The flood plains of the local streams are at an
average elevation of ± 1540 meters above mean sea level and drainage generally is a
northerly direction.
8. Air Quality
The existing and potential sources of air pollution in Kriel area are the following:
However, Eskom utilises the majority of the top surface of the ash dam as an evaporation
pan for polluted water, which means that the exposed surface is constantly wet. The sides
of the ash dam have largely been rehabilitated, with the result that dust blow from the ash
dam.
