environmental summons or successful prosecutions were recorded in the Reporting
Period.
Reporting Changes
ES.06. No
reporting changes were made in the Reporting Period.
Future key issues
ES.07. During dry
season, special attention should be paid on the potential construction dust
impact since most of the construction sites are adjacent to villages. The
Contractor should fully implement the construction dust mitigation measures
properly.
ES.08. The
Contractor was also reminded to prevent muddy water or other water pollutants
from site surface flow to local stream such as Kong Yiu Channel and Ma Wat
Channel or public area. Water
quality mitigation measures to prevent muddy runoff into nearby water bodies or
public areas should paid attention and fully implemented.
ES.09. Construction
noise would be a key environmental issue during construction work of the
Project. Noise mitigation measures
such as using quiet plants should be implemented in accordance with the
EM&A requirement.

3.1.1
The Environmental Monitoring and Audit
requirements are set out in the Approved EM&A manual. Environmental issues
such as air quality, construction noise and water quality were identified as
the key issues during the construction phase of the Project.
3.1.2
A summary of construction phase EM&A
requirements are presented in the
sub-sections below.
3.2.1
The EM&A program of construction phase
monitoring shall cover the following environmental issues:
•
Air quality;
•
Construction noise; and
•
Water quality
3.2.2
A summary of the monitoring parameters is
presented in Table 3-1.

3.3.1
The designated monitoring locations as
recommended in the EM&A Manual
are shown in Appendix D.
As the access to some of the designated monitoring locations was
questionable due to safety reason or denied by the landlords, alternative
locations therefore have had proposed. The proposed alternative monitoring
locations has updated in the revised EM&A Programme which verified by IEC
and certified by ET Leader prior submitted to EPD on 10 July 2013. Table 3-2, Table 3-3 and Table
3-4 are respectively listed the air quality, construction noise and
water quality monitoring locations for the Project and a map showing these
monitoring stations is presented in Appendix E.
