OPPOSE HOTEL ON ISLANDS!

Developers are planning to build a 5-star hotel on some of the few remaining unspoilt islands of the Vaal River near Parys. Among the features of the plan are a 700-vehicle + 4 bus parking lot, which will take over an entire island. The construction phase is likely to see rough sand and boulder bridges across the narrow channels between the islands. Sewage is to be piped to the Parys sewage works which already is unable to cope and regularly spills raw effluent into the Vaal. More
