Flora and vegetative matter might be gathered for consumption or for fuel; eggs taken from breeding bird nests; poaching of hare, ground birds or tortoise for consumption or for domestic trade; and persecution of raptors, snakes, and carnivores could potentially take place. The magnitude and unmitigated significance calculations are presented in the table below.

Staff training such as toolbox talks on the importance of ecosystem integrity, especially focused on species of importance such as Russian Tortoise and Southern Even-fingered Gecko. With the above measures, the residual significance is presented in the following table.

Species particularly sensitive include the shy Goitered Gazelle and Bustard species, although most wildlife which is not already habituated to anthropogenic disturbance is anticipated to be negatively affected. Particularly, breeding birds with colonies present will be negatively affected if works occur during the breeding season.
