Hauliers DoT’s axle USAslamUK mass reduction proposal

Coega smelter unplugged – thanks to SA’s power supply woes By Ed Richardson

Proposed reduction of permissible axle mass from 9-tons per four-wheel axle to 8-tons on the secondary road system.

By Alan Peat The SA trucking community is up in arms about a letter of intent from the department of transport for a proposed reduction of permissible axle mass from 9-tons per fourwheel axle to 8-tons on the secondary road system. This to move commercial vehicles on to the primary road network, and preserve SA’s secondary road network, most of which, said the department, has “reached a stage of

commercial realities of the land transport industries,” he said. Roads should be built and maintained to be able to take the loads using them, he added, not by devising a haphazard plan to save road surfaces and move cargoes from road to rail. A plan which, he reckoned, would only add significantly to overall transport costs – with all the inflationary elements of such an event.

disintegration”. There is also a plan to encourage goods transport to move from roads to rail branch lines. It is the intention, said the DoT, “to prohibit the transportation of certain commodities on both the primary and secondary road networks, and the migration of the same to rail branch lines”. The DoT is living in a dream world, according to a Durban trucker. “This was devised by somebody sitting behind a desk, and not in touch with the

South Africa’s power supply woes have officially unplugged plans for a giant aluminium smelter in the Coega Industrial Development Zone. The announcement – made in a joint statement by The Department of Trade and Industry, Eskom, Industrial Development Corporation and Rio Tinto Alcan – states it was “jointly acknowledged that, although some progress was made in discussions regarding the supply of electricity to the Coega aluminium smelter project, it was insufficient to proceed”. This is hardly a surprise given the power shortages in South Africa – the Coega smelter would have used as much electricity as the Nelson Mandela Bay metro – and the main role-players have already moved on. Transnet is reconfiguring

the port of Ngqura to become the country’s container hub rather than the original plans for a 32-berth bulk port, and the Coega Development Corporation is focusing on less energy-intensive operations, apart from a planned giant PetroSA refinery, which could produce some of its own power from waste gases. What the formal aluminium smelter announcement does call into question is the future of the metals cluster planned for Coega – which is planned to cater for other smelters, such as iron, manganese and stainless steel. According to the joint statement “discussions between Eskom, Rio Tinto Alcan, IDC, and dti have continued over the past several months, but the parties agree that the current context regarding the supply of electricity To page 12

DUTY CALLS A weekly summary of the main changes to the South African tariff dispensation and amendments to customs and

The Proposed Creation of Tariff Chapter 99 The South African Revenue Service (SARS) has published a notice in respect of the proposition of the introduction of Tariff Chapter 99 – ‘Miscellaneous Classification Provisions’, and the imposition of Tariff Heading 99.92. The notice reads as follows: “The Additional Notes for heading 99.92 relate to Stores for Foreign-going Ships and Aircraft: 1. (a) Any word or expression in this item in relation to stores shall have the meaning assigned thereto in section 38A and the rules for that section. (b) Goods in free circulation supplied as stores to a foreign-going ship or aircraft shall be cleared for export in terms of the provisions of heading 99.92 and not in terms of any other heading in Part 1 of Schedule No.1. 2. Heading 99.92 does not apply to the following goods that shall be cleared in accordance with the headings

of Chapter 1 to Chapter 97 of Part 1 of Schedule No. 1: (a) Any goods supplied as spares or equipment; (b) Bonded goods; (c) Goods prohibited or restricted as contemplated in section 113; (d) Alcoholic beverages and tobacco products that are goods in free circulation; and (e) Fuel levy goods. Comment is due by 23 October 2009. Demystifying Customs Valuation – Part 2 – Definitions In this week’s issue we progress to part two in our series of demystifying customs valuation, based on a SARS publication titled ‘Frequently Asked Questions – Customs Valuations’. This first definition is ‘actual value’, which is the price at which such or like goods are sold for export to South Africa, or offered for sale in the ordinary course of trade under fully competitive

excise legislation. Compiled by Tariff & Trade Intelligence. E-mail: info@tariffandtrade.co.za

conditions. To the extent to which the price of such or like goods is governed by quantity in a particular transaction, the price to be considered should uniformly be related to either: (a) Comparable quantities; or (b) Quantities not less favourable to importers than those in which the greater volume of the imported goods is sold in the trade between the countries of exportation and importation. ‘Ad valorem duty’ is defined as the duty expressed as a percentage based on the customs value of the goods, e.g. 10% ad valorem means that the duty payable is 10% of the customs value of the goods. An ‘importer’ includes any person who, at the time of importation: (a) owns any goods imported; (b) carries the risk of any goods imported; (c) represents that or acts as if he/ she is the importer or owner of any goods imported; (d) actually brings any goods into the Republic of South Africa;

(e) is beneficially interested in any way whatever in any goods imported; and/or (f) acts on behalf of any person referred to in any of the points above. ‘Commission’ is defined as a payment made to an intermediary who acts on behalf of either the supplier of the goods (selling commission) or the importer (buying commission). Finally, ‘Free on Board’ or ‘FOB’ implies that the supplier fulfils the obligation to deliver when the goods have passed over the ship’s rail at the named port of shipment. The importer has to bear all costs and risks of loss of or damage to the goods from that point.

New appointment adds muscle to Crisis plan moves airfreight consolidator into gear as CT focus areas is the US where congestion continues its agency partner – Shipco By Alan Peat Ever-lengthening delays and documentary and processing difficulties at the Cape Town container terminal (CTCT) have forced the local shipping community to put a crisis plan into gear. According to Mike Walwyn of shipping specialists Seaboard, and chairman of the CT Port Liaison Forum (PLF), the host of congestion problems taking place recently has mostly been blamed on the new Navis port operations system installed at Transnet Port Terminals (TPT). But, he suggested, this excuse has become rather lame after constant repetition. And vessel and truck delays, he added, are becoming unsustainably long. “There are substantial delays inside the terminal,” he told FTW. “For trucks, delays are regularly running out to six hours and beyond, and it’s an on-going process and getting critical for the landside movement of containers.” It led to the members of the PLF – from all the facets of the freight shipping industry – putting pressure on the representatives of TPT

and the Transnet National Ports Authority (TNPA), and getting agreement that things had indeed reached critical proportions. Said Walwyn: “At the last of our thenmonthly meetings, all the stakeholders (including the port authorities in all their forms) decided on crisis management. “We now meet weekly with TPT and TNPA to discuss problems that urgently require attention, and the agreement is that the port authorities will come back to us with their plans to deal with each issue.” He suggested that it was a co-operative type of arrangement, where all the sides got to present their cases before final corrective action could be taken. But one problem remains unresolved, and may require ministerial intervention, according to Walwyn. “There appear to be serious management issues at the terminal,” he said. “This is the firm, collective opinion of all the private sector elements in the forum, and it has been made clear to Transnet. “The general feeling is that an injection of new blood would benefit the terminal.”

Dave Graham … ‘Our goal is to become the leading airfreight consolidator by 2011.’

BY Joy Orlek CFR Freight has moved its airfreight division into a new league with the appointment of Dave Graham to the newly created position of general manager – airfreight. Since its inception six years ago, the division has grown and evolved. “But we now want to take it to the next level,” says CFR managing director Martin Keck. Graham joined CFR Freight on October 1 after seven years with UTi, most recently heading up the Chicago gateway operation. Along with New York, this facility is their largest in the United States.

Your fastest route to Africa

Prior to that he headed up the DHL airfreight facility at JIA, now OR Tambo International Airport. “Compared to the Far East and US, the consolidation market in South Africa is clearly under-developed and I believe it’s something we can grow,” Graham told FTW. There are several priorities on his agenda. “First is developing and growing new business and ensuring that the operational processes are in place to support that new business.” Part of that drive will include the recruitment of a dedicated, capable and experienced sales team. One of the company’s

– is one of the major agents in the region. Graham adds: “Europe and Africa will continue to be strong focus markets, with South Africa increasingly acting as a springboard into the rest of the continent.” With airfreight offices in Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban and Port Elizabeth, the company is well positioned to service its growing client base. “A strong selling point,” says director Peter SchmidtLöffler, “is our worldwide agency network – the Air Cargo Group – which enables us to offer a global, door-to-door option. “This offers considerable advantages to forwarders who don’t have an international network. In addition we have accounts with all airlines as well as CASS, which means that our customers don’t need to raise bank guarantees, which would tie up their cash flow and limit their ability to increase their inbound customs clearance business.” The company has on-site warehouse facilities and is in the process of being accredited in terms of Part 108 security regulations. Clearly the foundations are in place and a business plan is on track. “Our goal,” says Graham, “is to become the leading airfreight consolidator by 2011.”

Reefer exports kick-start expected upturn DAL Agency reflects on first year of operation

Ron Frick … ‘Volumes have started picking up since July.’

By Joy Orlek

Exce lle

As reefer exports gain momentum and the automotive industry shows signs of recovery, DAL Agency managing director Ron Frick is quietly optimistic about the future. DAL Agency, although established in July 2008, took over the sales and marketing responsibility of DAL’s Europe service from Safmarine

effective on November 1 last year. And by Frick’s own admission, the timing was as imperfect as it gets. “In my 38 years in the shipping industry I don’t remember a period where freight rates were at such depressed levels,” he told FTW. However, there are signs of change, with shipping lines on the Europe route having

implemented a $200 per TEU general rates increase north and southbound. “In the SA-Europe Container Service the Saecs member lines have, due to seasonality, temporarily suspended the intermediate service to reduce available capacity to more appropriate levels. “The withdrawal of capacity for a four month period has resulted in the core service taking over the cargo the intermediate was carrying, and that service is now running full in both directions. This reduction in capacity creates an environment conducive to restoring ocean freight rate levels back to where they were in the first quarter of 2009,” said Frick. “Europe-SA has always been a very stable freight market because of the relatively limited container volumes shipped between Europe and South African and vice-versa. In the good years container volumes grew at 1-2%. However, in the past 18 months the business has shrunk in real terms by 15-20%.”

Motion n i e

Volumes have however started picking up since July, particularly southbound, according to Frick. “It’s nothing dramatic but we have hopefully reached the bottom of the curve and the only way now is up.” Northbound volumes have been fairly static with strong demand for 20 ft heavy containers posing a challenge for every shipping line. “The modern vessels’ design is more 40 foot friendly in terms of container slots, so if you carry 20 foot boxes you sacrifice some container space,” he explained. “The average ship’s design is around 14 tons per slot and a lot of SA export cargo is heavy – the likes of canned goods, wine, wool and minerals and copper – so you tend to hit vessel weight limits before you hit container utilisation.” But this is a seasonal trend and in the reefer season, reefer cargo will get priority due to its perishable nature. “For us, reefer cargo is largely behind much of the positive sentiment. “We anticipate the reefer season in 2009/2010 will be

much better for exporters than 2008/2009. Apart from the limited buying power in overseas markets as a result of the recession, there was carryover of deciduous fruits held in cold stores in Europe which suppressed the normal demand from Southern Africa. As a result a lot of SA fruit was channelled to the Middle East instead of Europe due to better prices being achieved,” he said. Frick is also mildly confident about the automotive industry. “It’s always a barometer of the SA economy and if you look at the National Association of Automobile Manufacturers of SA figures on the sale of new vehicles, the comparative year-on-year decline is easing off. So in real terms we have probably seen a moderate growth, albeit from a very low base, and we are hopeful that this trend will continue. DAL Agency is in a strong position to take advantage of the expected upturn, says Frick, with its national and regional network now firmly established.

Discrepancy between fruit packed and shipped raises concern As the citrus export season ends, the continuing annual discrepancy between volumes packed (85.5m 15kg cartons this year) and product actually shipped (75.7m cartons, according to PPECB) has citrus industry officials calling on government to implement EDI as a way of ensuring more accurate accounting. “The difference when you are dealing with large volumes can be significant. There are discrepancies between varieties as well, but these vary,” Justin Chadwick, CEO of the Citrus Growers’ Association (CGA) told FTW. The biggest gap between fruit packed and shipped occurred with Valencias (37.1m cartons packed v 29.8m shipped), while the smallest gaps occurred for navels (19.4m packed v 19m shipped) and grapefruit (14m v 13.5m). “All packed fruit is fruit packed onto pallets that have been inspected and certified for

export. One to two percent of these I believe make it to port but there may be a packaging or other problem and the fruit is either diverted to the local market or destroyed,” said Chadwick. However, the majority of fruit is probably actually shipped, but an undercount happens when pallets are repacked into containers. “A container may be recorded as holding 20 pallets when in fact it contains the fruit of 23 pallets. The reason I believe is that CGA collects levies for every packed pallet. If an exporter is not actually shipping those pallets he is entitled to a refund, but we are not receiving the claims,” said Chadwick. The answer he said is EDI, and exporters are pushing government for implementation of the electronic capturing of data. “Once a pallet is captured by a scanner it is in the system for good. EDI is useful for several reasons, but it would also allow us to accurately track export shipments,” said Chadwick.

Reader query provides insight into Sars’ duty policy for travellers By bringing in goods purchased overseas, you are effectively importing. By Alan Peat A frantic e-mail from an FTW reader detailing how she had been hammered at Durban International Airport for duty plus value-added tax (VAT) after bringing in some clothing items from a trip to Bombay in India prompted an immediate investigation. In addition, she felt that the customs officer had overvalued the goods, which she reckoned fell below the permitted R3 000 maximum value that you’re allowed into SA. The question was how much are you allowed to bring into SA duty-free. Riaan de Lange, MD of Tariff & Trade Intelligence (TTi) and the writer of our weekly Duty Calls column – and also a specialist adviser to SA Revenue Service – was our first stop.

FTW0016SP

“This being the third story in FTW of people experiencing customs’ interventions,” he said, “indicates that Sars is starting to become more vigilant in its control, which I believe is a good thing.” As background information and clarification of the issue, De Lange explained that, in the past, when arriving back in SA you had to complete a DA331 ‘Customs Declaration’. “The four-page form required that you complete two pages,” he added, “with the other pages effectively explaining your rights and responsibilities in terms of the provisions of the Customs and Excise Act (‘the Act’).” He also said that readers should note that this form is still in use at SA’s land border posts, although our international airports do not

require the completion of the DA331 form. At an airport, you are left with the responsibility of selecting either the ‘red channel’ where you have something to declare or the ‘green channel’ where you have nothing to declare. However, a Sars official can stop you if you go through the ‘green channel’ and request that you provide proof of compliance. “What South African citizens seem to forget,” De Lange emphasised, “is that by bringing in goods purchased overseas, they are effectively importing goods into the country. “Another thing that people seem to forget is that they take their own property (cellphone, laptops, and cameras etc) with them and then on their return they could pay customs duties

(import tax) on these goods, unless they have completed a DA65 form – ‘Goods Registered for Re-Importation’. Meanwhile, the DA331 form – with its 13 questions which need to be answered ‘yes’ or ‘no’ – effectively addresses the goods and the quantities that you can bring into SA duty-free. According to the DA331 ‘any goods (new or used) obtained abroad worth more than R3 000 in total’ must have duty paid. It also defines the ‘flat rate assessment’. Said De Lange: “Over and above your allowance for consumables and your duty

free allowance of R3 000, you may elect to pay customs duty at a flat rate of 20% on any additional goods which you have acquired abroad of a total value not exceeding R12 000.” Looking specifically at our reader’s case, De Lange pointed out, “It is important to state that ignorance of the Act and its rules is not a defence. Just because Sars may not have been as vigilant in its enforcement in the past, does not mean that they cannot be now.” Although he had to make some presumptions from what our reader, Nitasha Ashokumar, directly said in her correspondence with FTW, he made a personal analysis of each of the issues that she highlighted in her letter.

Ignorance of the law is no excuse ‘It is normal practice for the customs official not to engage in debate’ Ashokumar: “To my surprise I was pulled aside by customs at the Durban International Airport.” De Lange: “We have to assume that Nitasha went through the ‘green channel’ – thus having nothing to declare. A customs official can stop any person going through a ‘green channel’ to verify that they indeed have nothing to declare.” Ashokumar: “The officer asked me, ‘what amount I had purchased for’ – my reply was R2 700-R3 000.” De Lange: “It seems that Nitasha did not have receipts for her purchases. In other words she could not substantiate the value of the goods that she had purchased abroad. If you are not able to prove the value of imported goods

then the customs official can assess them.” Ashokumar: “He said that I was within the limit but he still went through the cost of each item with me. “He then said that I need to pay a fine of R792 + VAT of R555 = R1 347. He said if I do not pay my stuff will be held back at the airport until I do pay. He did not want to listen to anything that I said – just pay the money.” De Lange: “Not sure how the ‘fine’ amount was arrived at, nor the VAT amount. I can only suggest that Nitasha gets Sars to clarify these amounts.” Ashokumar: “He did not want to listen to anything that I said – just pay the money, he said.” De Lange: “It is normal practice for the customs

official not to engage in debate. Remember that the official does not have discretion in enforcing the Act. Nitasha can now write a letter to the customs controller at the airport through which she returned to provide her facts, and ask for the controller to review the matter.” Ashokumar: “I did read the booklet that states that I can bring in goods to the value of R3 000 but it does not state if there is a quantity limit to a particular item e.g. the number of sarees. I am aware that the total of the goods must be R3 000. Can you please supply me with the quantity of each item that can be brought back to SA – especially sarees and punjabis.” De Lange: “Remember what was stated earlier

– ‘imported for personal use’. Remember that there are quite a few SA citizens that go overseas and purchase goods with the intention of selling them here. “There is no limit on the amount of sarees and punjabis – or, for that matter, any other product that you may import. However, a word to the wise – get an invoice or receipt from the person from whom you bought the products. The burden of proof is with you, the importer, to prove the value of the imported goods. But another word to the wise – do not buy a product, for instance a product that is 100% silk, and then state its value at a very low price. That will just alert suspicion. We have all heard of people doing just that.”

Emirates expects balanced loads on Durban route

EgyptAir to convene world conference

With its airline now operating daily flights between Durban and Dubai, Emirates SkyCargo is “optimistic” about cargo possibilities on this service, its third destination in SA and 17th in Africa, according to Johannesburg-based cargo manager Kum Naicker. Well before the airline started Durban flights, he told FTW, the Emirates head office had closely studied the market this supplied, and recognised its potential. In a communication to FTW, Peter Sedgley, senior vice-president of cargo commercial operations, said Emirates was ideally placed to provide the port city of Durban with swift, reliable connections to its trading partners around the world. And the core cargo business is there, according to Emirates’ research. “There is a variety of commodities moving out of Durban,” said Sedgley, “car

There’s a new commercial awareness at EgyptAir which will convene its first ever World Cargo Conference in Cairo later this month. Managing director of local GSA The Cargo Connection, Gerd von Mansberg, will be among the delegates attending from more than 60 stations worldwide. “Every station will do a short presentation on where they are and what’s happening in the market and we will strategise and come away with a strategy plan on how to go forward.” A little-known fact is that the airline has the biggest and most modern fleet in Africa, Von Mansberg told FTW, with a network spanning more than 64 countries globally. For local shippers, it’s

parts, pay channel decoders, electronic parking meters, aluminium, electronics, tools, perishables such as pineapples, and textiles. “These are bound for markets as far afield as Europe, the Middle East, the US and Australia.” Agents on the spot in KwaZulu Natal are “enthusiastic”, SkyCargo’s Durban cargo manager, Nathan Padayachy, told FTW. Flying an Airbus A330 on the route, with loading capacity for about 12 tons of cargo a flight depending on passenger load, the carrier is offering the market about 84-tons of cargo space a week in both directions. “The main traffic on the flights to date has been inbound,” Padayachy said, “but we are getting positive cargo enquiries daily, expect to increase outgoing volumes, and aim for a good balance between import and export

traffic over time.” The airline is also presently busy assessing the products and potential at the new King Shaka International Airport being constructed at La Mercy north of Durban and due to open in May next year. “But it’ll be a couple of months yet before we can say anything definite about this,” Padayachy added.

Deadline looms for complaints about ports authority Port regulator not flooded – yet By Alan Peat

of the ‘Ports Regulator – Regulatory Principles and Directives’, Kahn, in conversation with FTW, reminded readers that certain of these complaints had to be in his hands soon. This, he added, referred to complaints that arose after November 26, 2006, but prior to the August 6, 2009 publication of these directives. The ruling was that they must be lodged

If you have any complaints about the ports authority – in the form of the Transnet National Ports Authority (TNPA) – you may be facing a tight deadline for submission of these, according to Durban port regulator, Riad Kahn. As was revealed in a previous issue covering the August 6 gazetting

within three months of that August date. And Kahn suggested that the regulator’s office hadn’t actually been flooded – yet – with the number of complaints that some commentators in the market were convinced would pour in. This requires urgent action on behalf of any of you out there who are potential complainants.

Complainants only have until November 5 to lodge any complaint.

The three month period can be extended by the regulator on “good cause shown”, according to Tony Norton, maritime specialist with lawyers Garlicke & Bousfield and chairman of the National Port Users’ Forum (NPUF) – provided

the complainant applies for such condonation in writing. “Complainants only have until November 5 to lodge any complaint, the act or omission in respect of which arose between those November 2006 and August 2009 dates,” he told FTW.

FREIGHT PERSONALITY SERIES

An entire career with one employee …

Paul Sponneck.

Another of the well-known names in the SA freight industry is about to join the crew of retired Ancient Mariners. Paul Sponneck, commercial manager at Safcor Panalpina, took early retirement at the end of September after 46 years as a prominent member of the clearing and forwarding fraternity, and having served on the

executive committee of the SA Association of Freight Forwarders (Saaff) Johannesburg for 10 years and Saaff Durban for 15. During his lengthy stint in the industry he has been loyal to a sole employer – with an entire career history in the Rennies group and a steady advance up the promotional ladder until his final post as commercial manager following the merger between Safcor Panalpina and Renfreight Forwarding. When FTW asked Paul what he intended to do once he was retired, he was quick to reply that he needed to improve his golf handicap – and friends have told us that he plays a mean game on the bowling green. But his family life also takes a more prominent role in his thinking, with Paul looking forward to spending more time with his wife Pru, their children and grandchildren.

The new GIG ... By Liesl Venter Global Inspections is no more – long live the Global Inspections Group (GIG). This follows much deliberation by the South African-based inspections company which has not only changed its name but also corporate colours. According to Stefan Sakoschek, executive group chairman, the change has resulted in a look and feel that maintains the company’s African roots, but has more international appeal. “It is definitely about having a fresh and more modern look, while the acronym is more internationally inclined,” says Sakoschek. Employees have welcomed the new name and look of the company. “We are proud of our African roots – the company came about as we identified

an opportunity to open a truly African inspections company. Traditionally all the other inspections companies operating in South Africa and Africa have European

headquarters, but we were born and bred here. It was important to retain that, but also be able to have our international clients identify with us.”

In effect, taxpayers have until 20 November this year – the final deadline of the 2009 Tax Season – to submit any outstanding returns in order to avoid being penalised under the new penalty regime.

R45-m cold store officially launched Yesterday saw the official launch of Transnet’s R45 million cold store at the Cape Town Multipurpose Terminal. The facility is located at the Port of Cape Town’s E–Berth where the draft of approximately 10.4 metres caters for most conventional vessels in operation today

‘Strong rand would create double jeopardy for exporters’ The increase in electricity tariffs and the high wage and salary increases in unionised parts of the labour force are among the concerns raised as economists look ahead

Sars vows to introduce hefty penalties The South African Revenue Service (Sars) will introduce a system of strict new administrative

to the expected upturn. “Higher electricity tariffs are apparently unavoidable and one should worry how this will affect our trade competitiveness, seeing that many of our exporters are high electricity users,” says First National Bank chief economist Cees Bruggemans. “This makes it imperative that the rand doesn’t become too overvalued, as it would create double jeopardy for many of our key strategic producers.” Another voice added to chorus of objection over Eskom tariffs Business Unity South

Africa has added its voice to the growing chorus of objection to the proposed Eskom electricity tariff hikes. How will the Consumer Protection Act affect the freight industry and your business? FTW, in association with Transport Forum special interest group, has scheduled a seminar on November 5 that will take an in-depth look at the impact on the freight industry of this Act. Venue is the School of Tourism and Hospitality, University of Johannesburg in Auckland Park. To register

An executive at the privately owned Buenos Aires-based company told Lloyd’s List that it was prepared to consider all options in a bid to settle mounting debts.

New overnight service caters for fragile cargo The continuing growth in fragile consignments has prompted Transit Airfreight to offer special provision

for this category of cargo within its overnight express container service linking SA’s major air cargo centres.

‘Significant increase in the tendering of fragile consignments.’

“Having noted the significant increase in the tendering of fragile consignments,” sales manager Jurie Koen told FTW, “we saw the need for a service that would cater for this type of shipment.” Transit, therefore, launched its TLC ONX service, with the needs of fragile cargo taken into account. “The allocated loading space is critical,” said Koen, “with the need for the cargo to have no downward pressure on it, and secured both at front and sides.” And for this extra safety, there is only a minimal extra charge, he added. “It will attract a higher limited liability,” he said, “at a minimal additional surcharge, and a separate waybill pertaining to the specific consignment. This will ensure that these

consignments are separated from the run-of-the-mill freight.” This new service became available on October 6 on the main airways between Johannesburg and Cape Town; Port Elizabeth, and East London; Cape Town to Johannesburg; and Durban to Cape Town, serviced by airline SAA. Transit is currently

negotiating with its airline partners to extend this service, and, in addition, it has also incorporated this service into its road and regional network. “Our philosophy is that this will not only assist in the safe and secure movement of these shipments,” Koen said, “but also provide that little additional peace of mind that we all need.”

Rail champion spells out carbon ‘cost’ of road usage By Liesl Venter Road transport remains one of the largest consumers of energy and creators of pollution and while energy efficiency in the transport sector has improved dramatically, it remains a concern. Allen Jorgensen, media research officer for the Railroad Association of South Africa, says rail offers a much-needed alternative. “The cost, supply and consumption of energy has become a major environmental concern in recent times. From 1978 to 1988 the energy needed to move one passenger one kilometre was reduced by 3% but the number of passengers increased by 31%. In the freight sector the increase was even greater,” says Jorgensen. “It is clear that a careful examination of the overland transport modal mix is urgently required and that no doubt, rail has an important

role to play.” According to Jorgensen, electric haulage by rail reduces the carbon footprint quite substantially. “A road vehicle on the N3 uses 280-300 litres of diesel for a single run from Durban to Gauteng. At 30 million tons of through road traffic per annum, or one million trips, 280 million litres of fuel is consumed. Such traffic on rail would rely almost entirely on electricity generated from coal – a much more abundant resource.” Jorgensen says rail also uses less space as a singletrack railway line can handle four to eight times the volume of a two lane bi-directional road. “Yes, road transport is fast and flexible, but the impact on the environment is greater. Nearly all road transport operations rely on diesel or petrol usage while rail in comparison relies largely on electricity generated in thermal power stations.”

Allen Jorgensen … ‘Electric haulage by rail reduces the carbon footprint quite substantially.’

Jorgensen believes that to make any informed infrastructure investment, total transport costs must be factored in which include energy use and externalities including environmental degradation, accidents, congestion and related costs. “Only once all these costs are factored into the total cost of transportation can we make an informed decision on what infrastructure to invest in.”

DoT’s axle mass reduction From page 1 Road Freight Association (RFA), said the association was “totally against” this departmental proposal. “This for two reasons,” he told FTW. First, it will affect the overall vehicle payloads, “requiring a rush of extra trucks on the roads to distribute the same amount of goods”. “More trucks,” said Kelly, “and a higher cost-per-ton to move the goods will only increase transport costs, and therefore the cost of all the goods carried, and push up the end-prices of goods on-theshelf to consumers across the country. “It’s funny that they stress goods-carrying vehicles,” Kelly said, “when buses have a mass limit of 10.2-tons on the four-wheeled rear-axle. “What does more damage – an illegal-to-be nine-ton axle on a truck carrying goods or a legal 10.2-t on a bus carrying people?” There is also a serious contradiction in government policy-thinking. According to Barney Curtis, executive officer of the Federation

the strengthening of the transmission infrastructure to the Eastern Cape in order to cater for future growth in the area,” says Eskom’s chief executive, Jacob Maroga in the statement.

The parties also concur that it is of utmost importance that a project like the Coega aluminium smelter comes on stream when power is reliably available and the facility’s consumption does

of Southern African Road Transport Associations, the protocol of the Southern African Development Community calls for a harmonisation of permissible axle masses (amongst all the other vehicle specifications) amongst the member states. And the figure chosen was 10 tons. The problem is that the SA minister of transport has signed this agreement, and with this latest proposal to drop the SA axle mass the department will be shooting the minister’s agreement in the foot. “A 10 tons harmonised mass across the SADC region,” said Curtis, “but not in South Africa – where the new proposal suggests 8-tons. “This is completely unacceptable. We recognise that there is damage to the roads, but feel that this proposal is just a political ploy to move things to rail.” All the questions that are being asked, like what commodities are going to be banned from what roads, need to be answered before another move is made.
