Brad Theron, Chairperson of the Environmental Affairs Portfolio of AfriForum\u2019s Malmesbury branch, also presented Gerhard Havenga, manager of the site, with a certificate. The Malmesbury branch rewarded all the employees with a gift pack consisting of food and cooldrink.<\/p>\n<p>This acknowledgement follows after AfriForum launched a national landfill site audit in February\u00a02019 and in which all 140 branches of the civil rights watchdog participated. Three landfill sites in the Western Cape achieved exceptional accomplishments, of which the Highlands landfill site is one.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWe are privileged to live in a province where the majority of service delivery can be praised, rather than to complain about poor service. We trust that those landfill sites in the Western Cape that didn\u2019t comply with the legal requirements during the audit will strive to follow in the footsteps of sites such as the Highlands landfill site,\u201d says De Jager.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Become involved at AfriForum\u2019s Malmesbury branch today: SMS \u201cMalmesbury\u201d to 45342 (R1).<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1'
