Section 10 Conclusion

2. Project Background

2.1 Background

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.

impact monitoring for odour patrol

4.2.12. Odour patrols along the shorelines of Causeway Bay Typhoon Shelter and ex-Wan Chai Public Cargo Working Area when there is temporary reclamation in Causeway Bay Typhoon Shelter and/or in the ex-Wan Chai Public Cargo Working Area, or when there is dredging of the odorous sediment and slime at the south-western corner of the Causeway Bay Typhoon Shelter. Odour patrols will be carried out at bi-weekly intervals during July, August and September by a qualified person of the ET who shall:

¡P be at least 16 years of age;

¡P be free from any respiratory illnesses; and

¡P not be allowed to smoke, eat, drink (except water) or use chewing gum or sweets 30 min

¡P before and during odour patrol

4.2.13. Odour patrol shall be conducted by independent trained personnel / competent persons patrolling and sniffing around the shore as shown in Figure 4.1 to detect any odour at the concerned hours (afternoon is preferred for higher daily temperature).

4.2.14. The qualified person will use the nose (olfactory sensor) to sniff odours at different locations. The main odour emission sources and the areas to be affected by the odour nuisance will be identified.

4.2.15. The perceived odour intensity is to be divided into 5 levels which are ranked in the descending order as follows:

¡P 0 - Not detected. No odour perceived or an odour so weak that it cannot be easily characterized or described;

¡P 1 - Slight Identifiable odour, and slight chance to have odour nuisance;

¡P 2 - Moderate Identifiable odour, and moderate chance to have odour nuisance;

¡P 3 - Strong Identifiable, likely to have odour nuisance;

¡P 4 - Extreme Severe odour, and unacceptable odour level.

4.2.16. The findings including odour intensity, odour nature and possible odour sources, and also the local wind speed and direction at each location will be recorded. In addition, some relevant meteorological and tidal data such as daily average temperature, and daily average humidity, on that surveyed day will be obtained from the Hong Kong Observatory Station for reference. The Action and Limit levels for odour patrol are shown in Appendix 6.1.

4.2.17. The qualified odour patrol member has individual n-butanol thresholds complied with the requirement of European Standard Method of Air Quality ¡V Determination of Odour Concentration by Dynamic Olfactometry (EN13725) in the range of 20 to 80 ppb. The certificate for the qualified odour panel member is shown in Appendix 4.2.

4.3 Water Quality Monitoring

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 September) 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 proposed monitoring frequency and water quality parameters. Duplicate in-situ measurements and water sampling should be carried out in each sampling event. For selection of tides for in-situ measurement and water sampling, tidal range of individual flood and ebb tides should be not less than 0.5m.

Table 4.5 Marine Water Quality Monitoring Frequency and Parameters

Activities	Monitoring Frequency^1	Parameters^2
During the 4-week baseline monitoring period	Three days per week, at mid-flood and mid-ebb tides	Turbidity, Suspended Solids (SS), Dissolved Oxygen (DO), pH, Temperature, Salinity
During marine construction works	Three days per week, at mid-flood and mid-ebb tides	Turbidity, Suspended Solids (SS), Dissolved Oxygen (DO), pH, Temperature, Salinity
After completion of marine construction works	Three days per week, at mid-flood and mid-ebb tides	Turbidity, Suspended Solids (SS), Dissolved Oxygen (DO), pH, Temperature, Salinity

Notes:

1. For selection of tides for in-situ measurement and water sampling, tidal range of individual flood and ebb tides should be not less than 0.5m.

2. Turbidity should be measured in situ whereas SS should be determined by laboratory.

Dissolved Oxygen and Temperature Measuring Equipment

4.3.7. The instrument should be a portable, weatherproof dissolved oxygen measuring instrument complete with cable, sensor, comprehensive operation manuals, and use a DC power source. It should be capable of measuring:

¡P a dissolved oxygen level in the range of 0-20 mg/l and 0-200% saturation

¡P a temperature of 0-45 degree Celsius

4.3.8. It should have a membrane electrode with automatic temperature compensation complete with a cable. Sufficient stocks of spare electrodes and cables should be available for replacement where necessary. (e.g. YSI model 59 meter, YSI 5739 probe, YSI 5795A submersible stirrer with reel and cable or an approved similar instrument).

4.3.9. Should salinity compensation not be build-in in the DO equipment, in-situ salinity shall be measured to calibrate the DO equipment prior to each DO measurement.

Turbidity Measurement Instrument

4.3.10. The instrument should be a portable, weatherproof turbidity-measuring instrument complete with comprehensive operation manual. The equipment should use a DC power source. It should have a photoelectric sensor capable of measuring turbidity between 0‑1000 NTU and be complete with a cable (e.g. Hach model 2100P or an approved similar instrument).

¡P Type A filling in FRAW and FRAE above +2.5mPD

¡P General filling works above +2.5mPD in IRAE

¡P Surcharging in FRAW and FRAE

¡P Construction of GPO boundary wall

¡P Construction of PLA boundary wall

¡P Construction of Promenade enhancement works

¡P Construction of buildings at PLA berth

¡P Installation of cooling mains discharge pipes in FRAE and FRAW

¡P Backfilling of CWB structure

¡P Importation of fill material

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 at Reclamation Shoreline Sub-zones under Wan Chai Development Phase II were the dredging and filling at HKCEC3w, dredging at submarine sewage pipelines, reinstatement of seawall block construction at TCBR1W and marine bored piling at MTR Tunnel Crossing in the reporting month.
