10 Conclusion
2.1.1.
¡§Wan Chai Development phase II and Central-Wan Chai
Bypass¡¨ and ¡§Central-Wan Chai Bypass and Island Eastern Corridor Link¡¨
(hereafter called ¡§the Project¡¨) are Designed Project (DP) under the
Environmental Impact Assessment Ordinance (Cap. 499) (EIAO). The Environmental Impact Assessment
(EIA) Reports for Central-Wan Chai Bypass and Island Eastern Corridor Link
(Register No. AEIAR-041/2001) and Wan Chai Development phase II and Central-Wan
Chai Bypass (Register No.: AEIAR-125/2008) have been approved on 31 August 2001
and 11 December 2008 respectively.
2.1.2.
The key purpose of Wan Chai Development Phase II
(WDII) is to provide land at Wan Chai North and North Point for construction of
the Central-Wan Chai Bypass and Island Eastern Corridor Link (CWB). Land formed
under the project will be developed as a world-class waterfront promenade
joining that at the new Central waterfront for public enjoyment.
2.1.3.
There is a compelling and present need for the CWB
to provide relief to the very congested east-west Connaught Road
Central/Harcourt Road / Gloucester Road Corridor (the Corridor) which is
currently operating beyond its capacity. The CWB will provide relief to the
existing congestion along the Corridor and cater for the anticipated growth of
traffic on Hong Kong Island. Without the CWB and its access roads, there will
not be sufficient capacity to serve the heavy traffic demands at both strategic
and local levels.
2.2.1.
The Project is located mainly in Wan Chai North,
Causeway Bay and North Point, and is demarcated by Gloucester Road and Victoria
Park Road to the south, Fenwick Pier Street to the west and Tong Shui Road
Interchange to the east, as shown in Figure 2.1.
2.2.2.
The study area encompasses existing developments
along the Wan Chai, Causeway Bay and North Point shorelines. Major land uses
include the Hong Kong Convention & Exhibition Centre (HKCEC) Extension, the
Wan Chai Ferry Pier, the ex-Wan Chai Public Cargo Working Area (ex-PCWA), the
Royal Hong Kong Yacht Club (RHKYC), the Police Officers¡¦ Club, the Causeway Bay
Typhoon Shelter (CBTS) and commercial and residential developments.
2.2.3.
The scope of the Project
comprises:
¡P
Land formation
for key transport infrastructure and facilities, including the Trunk Road (i.e. CWB) and the associated
slip roads for connection to the Trunk Road and for through traffic from Central to
Wan Chai and Causeway Bay. The land formed for the above transport infrastructure
will provide opportunities for the development of an attractive waterfront
promenade for the enjoyment of the public
¡P
Reprovisioning /
protection of the existing facilities and structures affected by the land
formation works mentioned above
¡P
Extension,
modification, reprovisioning or protection of existing storm water drainage
outfalls, sewerage outfalls and watermains affected by the revised land use and
land formation works mentioned above
¡P
Upgrading of
hinterland storm water drainage system and sewerage system, which would be
rendered insufficient by the land formation works mentioned above
¡P
Provision of the
ground level roads, flyovers, footbridges, necessary transport facilities and
the associated utility services
¡P
Construction of
the new waterfront promenade, landscape works and the associated utility
services
¡P
The Trunk Road
(i.e. CWB) within the study area and the associated slip roads for connection
to the Trunk Road.
2.2.4.
The project also contains various Schedule 2 DPs
that, under the EIAO, require Environmental Permits (EPs) to be granted by the
DEP before they may be either constructed or operated. Table 2.1
summarises the five individual DPs under this Project. Figure 2.1 shows the
locations of these Schedule 2 DPs.

2.3.1.
Due to the multi-contract nature of the Project,
there are a number of contracts sub-dividing the whole works area into
different work areas to be commenced.
Contractors of individual contracts will be required by the EP holder to
apply Further Environmental Permits (FEP) such that the impact monitoring
stations are sub-divided accordingly to facilitate the implementation of
EM&A programme and to streamline the EM&A reporting for individual FEP
holders correspondingly.

Noise Monitoring Parameters, Frequency and Duration
4.1.3.
The construction noise
level shall be measured in terms of the A-weighted equivalent continuous sound
pressure level (Leq). Leq (30 minutes) shall be used as
the monitoring parameter for the time period between 0700 and 1900 hours on
normal weekdays. For all other time periods, Leq (5 minutes) shall
be employed for comparison with the Noise Control Ordinance (NCO) criteria.
Supplementary information for data auditing, statistical results such as L10
and L90 shall also be obtained for reference.
4.1.4.
Noise monitoring shall be carried out at all the
designated monitoring stations. The monitoring frequency shall depend on the
scale of the construction activities. The following is an initial guide on the
regular monitoring frequency for each station on a weekly basis when noise
generating activities are underway:
¡P
one set of
measurements between 0700 and 1900 hours on normal weekdays.
4.1.5.
If construction works are extended to include works
during the hours of 1900 ¡V 0700 as well as public holidays and Sundays,
additional weekly impact monitoring shall be carried out during respective
restricted hours periods. Applicable permits under NCO shall be obtained by the
Contractor.
Monitoring Equipment
4.1.6.
As referred to in the Technical Memorandum ™ issued
under the NCO, sound level meters in compliance with the International
Electrotechnical Commission Publications 651: 1979 (Type 1) and 804: 1985 (Type
1) specifications shall be used for carrying out the noise monitoring.
Immediately prior to and following each noise measurement the accuracy of the
sound level meter shall be checked using an acoustic calibrator generating a
known sound pressure level at a known frequency. Measurements may be accepted
as valid only if the calibration level from before and after the noise
measurement agree to within 1.0 dB.
4.1.7.
Noise measurements shall not be made in fog, rain,
wind with a steady speed exceeding 5 m/s or wind with gusts exceeding 10 m/s.
The wind speed shall be checked with a portable wind speed meter capable of
measuring the wind speed in m/s.
Air Quality Monitoring Stations
4.2.1.
The air monitoring stations for the Project are
listed and shown in Table 4.3 and Figure 4.1. Appendix 4.1 shows the established
Action/Limit Levels for the monitoring works.

Air Monitoring Parameters, Frequency and Duration
4.2.2.
One-hour and 24-hour TSP levels should be measured
to indicate the impacts of construction dust on air quality. The 24-hour TSP
levels shall be measured by following the standard high volume sampling method
as set out in the Title 40 of the Code of Federal Regulations, Chapter 1 (Part
50), Appendix B.
4.2.3.
All relevant data including temperature, pressure,
weather conditions, elapsed-time meter reading for the start and stop of the
sampler, identification and weight of the filter paper, and any other local
atmospheric factors affecting or affected by site conditions, etc., shall be
recorded down in detail.
4.2.4.
For regular impact monitoring, the sampling
frequency of at least once in every six-days, shall be strictly observed at all
the monitoring stations for 24-hour TSP monitoring. For 1-hour TSP monitoring,
the sampling frequency of at least three times in every six-days should be
undertaken when the highest dust impact occurs.
Sampling Procedure and Monitoring Equipment
4.2.5.
High volume samplers (HVSs) in compliance with the
following specifications shall be used for carrying out the 1-hour and 24-hour
TSP monitoring:
¡P
0.6 - 1.7 m3 per
minute adjustable flow range;
¡P
equipped with a
timing / control device with +/- 5 minutes accuracy for 24 hours operation;
¡P
installed with
elapsed-time meter with +/- 2 minutes accuracy for 24 hours operation;
¡P
capable of
providing a minimum exposed area of 406 cm2;
¡P
flow control
accuracy: +/- 2.5% deviation over 24-hour sampling period;
¡P
equipped with a
shelter to protect the filter and sampler;
¡P
incorporated
with an electronic mass flow rate controller or other equivalent devices;
¡P
equipped with a
flow recorder for continuous monitoring;
¡P
provided with a
peaked roof inlet;
¡P
incorporated
with a manometer;
¡P
able to hold and
seal the filter paper to the sampler housing at horizontal position;
¡P
easily
changeable filter; and
¡P
capable of
operating continuously for a 24-hour period.
4.2.6.
Initial calibration of dust monitoring equipment
shall be conducted upon installation and thereafter at bi-monthly intervals.
The transfer standard shall be traceable to the internationally recognized
primary standard and be calibrated annually. The concern parties such as IEC
shall properly document the calibration data for future reference. All the data
should be converted into standard temperature and pressure condition.
Laboratory Measurement / Analysis
4.2.7.
A clean laboratory with constant temperature and
humidity control, and equipped with necessary measuring and conditioning
instruments to handle the dust samples collected, shall be available for sample
analysis, and equipment calibration and maintenance. The laboratory should be
HOKLAS accredited.
4.2.8.
An alternative non-HOKLAS
accredited laboratory was set-up for carrying out
the laboratory analysis, the laboratory equipment was approved by the ER
on 8 February 2011 and the measurement procedures were witnessed by the IEC. Any
measurement performed by the laboratory was be demonstrated to
the satisfaction of the ER and IEC.
IEC shall regularly audit to the measurement performed by the laboratory
to ensure the accuracy of measurement results.
4.2.9.
Filter paper of size 8" x 10" shall be
labelled before sampling. It shall be a clean filter paper with no pinholes,
and shall be conditioned in a humidity-controlled chamber for over 24-hours and
be pre-weighed before use for the sampling.
4.2.10. After
sampling, the filter paper loaded with dust shall be kept in a clean and
tightly sealed plastic bag. The filter paper shall then be returned to the
laboratory for reconditioning in the humidity controlled chamber followed by
accurate weighing by an electronic balance with readout down to 0.1 mg. The
balance shall be regularly calibrated against a traceable standard.
4.2.11. All the
collected samples shall be kept in a good condition for 6 months before
disposal.
4.3.1.
The EIA Report has identified that the key water
quality impact would be associated with the dredging works during the
construction phase. Marine water
quality monitoring for dissolved oxygen (DO), suspended solid (SS) and
turbidity is therefore recommended to be carried out at selected WSD flushing
water intakes. The impact
monitoring should be carried out during the proposed dredging works to ensure
the compliance with the water quality standards.
4.3.2.
The updated EM&A Manual for EP-356/2009
(Version in March 2011) is approval by EPD on 29 April 2011. As such, the
Action Level and Limit Level for the wet season (April ¡V October) will be
effected and applied to the water quality monitoring data from 30 April 2011.
Water Quality Monitoring Stations
4.3.3.
It is proposed to monitor the water quality at 9
WSD salt water intakes and 12 cooling water intakes along the seafront of the
Victoria Harbour. The proposed water quality monitoring stations of the Project
are shown in Table 4.4 and Figure 4.1. Appendix 4.1 shows the established
Action/Limit Levels for the monitoring works.

Water Quality Parameters
4.3.4.
Monitoring of dissolved oxygen (DO), turbidity and
suspended solids (SS) shall be carried out at WSD flushing water intakes and
cooling water intakes. DO and Turbidity are measured in-situ while SS is
determined in laboratory.
4.3.5.
In association with the water quality parameters,
other relevant data shall also be measured, such as monitoring
location/position, time, sampling depth, water temperature, pH, salinity,
dissolved oxygen (DO) saturation, weather conditions, sea conditions, tidal
stage, and any special phenomena and work underway at the construction site
etc.
Sampling Procedures and Monitoring Equipment
4.3.6.
The interval between two sets of monitoring should
not be less than 36 hours except where there are exceedances of Action and/or
Limit Levels, in which case the monitoring frequency will be increased. Table 4.5 shows the

Remarks: - Considering the absence of intake pump operation at Windsor House intake (C7), this sensitive receiver was apparently not exist during this period so that no water quality monitoring at C7 for compliance checking was undertaken in this reporting month.
- The cessation of seawater intake operation for C6 was confirmed on 17 May 2011, the water monitoring at C6 was then terminated since 17 May 2011.
5.4.6.
The
enhanced water quality monitoring at C6, C7, Ex-WPCWA-SW and Ex-WPCWA-SE was
commenced on 13 January 2011. One dissolved oxygen level at Ex-WPCWA-SE on 25
May 2011 during mid-ebb was exceeded.
5.4.7.
As
no dredging of the sediment
at the south-western corner of the Causeway Bay Typhoon Shelter in reporting
month, no daily
monitoring of suspended solids and 24 hours monitoring of turbidity at the cooling water intakes at C6 and C7 were required.
5.4.8.
The
maintenance works and testing of flush water pump system at Windsor House intake
(C7) have been carried out in the reporting month. The
silt screen at C7 was then removed on 15 February 2011 and then reinstated on
29 March 2011 to facilitate their maintenance works as per the intake owner¡¦s
request. Considering the absence of intake pump operation at Windsor
House intake (C7), this sensitive receiver was apparently not exist
during this period so
that no intake water quality monitoring at C7 for compliance checking was
undertaken in this reporting month.
5.4.9.
As
per the meeting with the representative of Excelsior Hotel and World Trade
Centre on 17 May 2011, they confirmed that the seawater intake for The
Excelsior was no longer in use and replaced by the connected permanent water
supply from WSD pipelines since 11 January 2011. Thus, the impact water quality
monitoring for the cooling intake - C6 was terminated effective from 26 May
2011 and no compliance checking for intake water monitoring at C6 was
undertaken in this reporting month.
5.4.10.
Water monitoring results measured in this reporting
period are reviewed and summarized.

Remarks: - Considering the absence of intake pump operation at Windsor House intake (C7), this sensitive receiver was apparently not exist during this period so that no water quality monitoring at C7 for compliance checking was undertaken in this reporting month.
- The cessation of seawater intake operation for C6 was confirmed on 17 May 2011, the water monitoring at C6 was then terminated since 17 May 2011.
- It was not included the exceedances recorded at C3 in the daily monitoring from 17 May to 27 May 2011.
5.4.11.
Investigation found that turbidity and/or SS level
exceedances at C3 recorded on 5 and 7 May 2011 were caused by silt screen
defect and improper maintenance of deployed silt curtain as identified during
regular site inspections. In additional, the exceedances at C3 on 16, 18 and 19
May 2011 were caused by improper control and management of deployed silt
curtain as identified during site inspections and monitoring. Other than these
exceedances, it was concluded not related to the Project works. The details of
the recorded exceedances can be referred to the Section 6.3.

6.4.1.
Referring to the
exceedances shown in Table 5.9, the occasionally Action and Limit
level exceedances of turbidity and suspended solid were recorded at Stations C8
and C9. Since there were numerous unknown outfalls from the nearby coastal area
closed to the cooling intakes C8 and C9, it causes the potential for
accumulation of pollutants near the intakes and may lead to potential water
quality deterioration at the seawater intake points. Besides, muddy discharge
from the outfalls near Oil Street and C9 were recorded in reporting month.
6.4.2.
Major marine works were only installations of caisson
seawall at NPR2E and reclamation work at NPR1 and NPR2W in this reporting
month. Proper condition of silt curtain was provided between the barge and the
seawall during the filling material transportation. The recorded turbidity and
SS exceedances were concluded as not project-related.
6.4.3.
Reviewed the trend of overall results at all
monitoring stations nearer the marine work area, the turbidity exceedance recorded
at WSD15 on 12 May 2011 while low turbidity and SS levels were recorded at the
stations near the marine work area without exceeded the action and limit level.
Besides, the exceedances recorded at WSD17 during mid-flood were located in the
upstream of the marine works. Thus, theses turbidity and SS exceedances were
considered not related to the Project works.
Contract
no. HK/2009/01 - Wan Chai Development Phase II ¡V Central ¡VWanchai Bypass at

6.4.4.
Since
there were only filling works at HKCEC1 and no dredging works of the Cross
Harbour Water Mains on 5 May 2011, no potential water impact was near the
station C1. Thus, it was considered not related to the Project works.
6.4.5.
Referring
to exceedances recorded at WSD19 on 5 May 2011 during mid-ebb, it was located
in upstream of the Project works, the exceedances were definitely non-works
related under the Project.
6.4.6.
Exceedances
of turbidity and/or SS level at C3 were recorded on 28 and 30 April, 3, 5, 7, 12,
14, 16, 18, 19, 23, 25 and 27 May 2011. Investigation found that the turbidity
levels outside the silt screen on 28, 30 April and 3, 12 and 14 May 2011 were
well below the Action Level while turbidity exceedances were recorded inside
the silt screen. Recorded exceedances on these days might be caused by trapping
of material inside the silt screen and not adequately removed by Contractor in
time.
6.4.7.
In
the additional turbidity measurements at the outside the silt screen on 5, 7,
16, 18, and 19 May 2011, it indicated that the turbidity levels outside the
silt screen were also higher than the Limit Level. In the further
investigation, silt screen defect and deployed silt curtain not properly
maintained as identified during regular site inspections were the findings to
cause the exceedances recorded on 5 and 7 May 2011. Besides, deployed silt
curtain was not properly managed and controlled as identified during site
inspections and monitoring on 16, 18 and 19 May 2011. These exceedances were
concluded to be in relation to the deployed silt screen and silt curtain. The frequency
of water quality monitoring has been increased to daily from 17 May 2011 so as
to keep in view of any further deterioration of water quality in water channel.
Filling operation was then suspended since 19 May 2011 morning.
6.4.8.
The
turbidity inside the silt screen on 23, 25 and 27 May 2011 were higher than the
turbidity outside the silt screen. The exceedances recorded on these days were
considered in relation to the accumulation of wastewater and debris since a
discharge pipe was discovered inside the silt screen by Contractor on 24 May
2011. The monitoring frequency was then resumed to normal monitoring
frequency on 27 May 2011. The diversion of the discharge pipe is under liaison
with the stakeholder. Follow-up action will be taken in the coming month.
6.4.9.

silt screen was checked in proper condition during water quality monitoring.
Besides, the silt curtain for the dredging work at submarine outfall was then
checked in proper condition during the site inspection on 5 May 2011. It was concluded
that the SS level exceedance was not related to the Project works.
Contract no. HY/2009/15 - Central-Wanchai Bypass ¡V Tunnel (Causeway Bay Typhoon Shelter Section)

There
was one DO level at ex- WPCWA SE exceeded the Action Level on 25 May 2011 in
the Enhanced DO monitoring. According to the information reported by Contractor
HY/2009/15, no marine activities were carried out at ex-WPCWA on 25 May 2011.
In view that no marine activities were undertaken and no odour nuisance was
noted during monitoring, the DO exceedance was considered not related to the
Project.

for notification of exceedances can be referred to Appendix 6.2.
6.5.1.
There was no non-compliance from the site audits in
the reporting period. The observations and recommendations made in each
individual site audit session were presented in Section 8.
6.5.2.
There were exceedances of turbidity and/or SS level recorded at
C3 on 5, 7, 16, 18 and 19 May 2011 that were considered in relation to the deployed
silt screen and silt curtain as identified during the site inspection and
monitoring.
6.6.1.
When the exceedance was recorded during water quality
monitoring, repeated in-situ measurement and additional turbidity measurement were immediately taken
outside the silt screen when the Action Level or Limit Level exceedance was
recorded inside the silt screen for checking of relation from the filling works.
Diver
inspection on the silt screen and silt curtain was conducted on 5 May 2011. The
maintenance works of geotextile was then conducted on 6 and 7 May 2011.
Additional silt curtains have been installed in HKCEC water channel on 7 May
2011.
6.6.2.
In response to further recorded exceedances at
water monitoring station C3, the
frequency of water quality monitoring has been increased to daily from 17 May
2011 so as to keep in view of any further deterioration of water quality in
water channel. Filling operation was then suspended from 19 May 2011 morning
until 23 May 2011 morning.
6.6.3.
A
discharge pipe for HKCEC was discovered located in between the C3 intake inlets
and inside the silt screen by Contractor on 24 May 2011. A site investigation
with ARE and SIOW from AACL, ET, IEC, Contractor and stakeholder was conducted
on 27 May 2011 to confirm the location of the discharge pipe. The monitoring
frequency was then resumed to normal monitoring frequency on 27 May 2011. The
diversion of the discharge pipe is under liaison with stakeholder. Follow-up
action will be taken in the coming month.
6.6.4.
The implementation of the recommended mitigation
measures would be continuously followed-up and reported in the next reporting
period.
7.0.1.
According to Condition 3.4 of the EP-356/2009, this
section addresses the relevant cumulative construction impact due to the
concurrent activities of the current projects including the Central Reclamation
Phase III, Central-Wanchai Bypass and Island Eastern Corridor Link projects.

7.0.3.
According to the construction programme of Wan Chai
Development Phase II, Central-Wan Chai Bypass and Island Eastern Corridor Link
projects, the major construction activities under Wan Chai Development Phase II
were the filling works at North Point Reclamation Shoreline Subzone (NPR2E) and
(NPR1& NPR2W), the filling at WCR1 and dredging at Wan Chai Reclamation
Shoreline Subzone (Submarine sewage pipeline) respectively, filling at HKCEC1
and dredging at TCBR and filling at TPCEAE, and the dredging works at MTR
Tunnel Crossing in the reporting month. The major environmental impact was
water quality impact at North Point and Wan Chai.
7.0.4.
The major environmental impacts generated from the
filling work at Central Reclamation Phase III were only located along the coastline
of Central and Admiralty while the adverse water impact was located in the HKCEC
water channel in relation to the filling operation causing exceedances at
station C3 in this reporting month. Other than the exceedances recorded at C3,
it was concluded not related to the Project works. Thus, it was unlikely to
have cumulative impact from CRIII. It is evaluated the cumulative construction
impact from the concurrent projects including Wan Chai Development Phase II and
Central Reclamation Phase III was insignificant.
8.0.1.
During this reporting month, weekly environmental
site audits were conducted for Contracts no. HY/2009/11, HK/2009/01, HK/2009/02,
