Petra's short- to medium-term strategy to secure water resources is through: Š approval of water use licences/permits for current and future production needs; Š service-level arrangements and co-operative agreements with local Government (Kimberley municipality) and neighbouring industries; Š reduction of consumptive water losses by: Š maximising internal recycling and water use efficiency; Š reducing evaporation through shortening reticulation pathways; Š lining return water facilities; and Š active dewatering of seepage plumes under tailings facilities; Š using phytoremediation and stabilisation to treat domestic effluent; Š securing water from Governmental water schemes; Š expanding on own internal storage capacities; and Š maximising 'greywater harvesting' through internal domestic infrastructure and waste water treatment effluent use.
