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
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
2.2.1.
Design and Construction of Central – Wan Chai Bypass and Island Eastern
Corridor Link under the Project involves the construction and operation of a
trunk road and its road tunnel more than 800m in length between portals that is
shown at Figure 2.1.
2.2.2.
The study area encompasses existing
developments from Central to North Point. The scope of the Central-Wanchai Bypass (CWB)
and Island Eastern Corridor Link (IECL) includes:
·
A dual
three-lane trunk road, approximately 4.5 km in length, and tunnel approximately
3.7 km in length defined from the connection with the existing Rumsey Street
Flyover in Central, through to a connection with the existing Island Eastern
Corridor to the east of the Causeway Bay Typhoon Shelter (CBTS);
·
The
Central Interchange near the Rumsey Street Flyover to provide road connections
to the Central area;
·
Tunnel
control buildings and ventilation buildings;
·
Slip
roads to connect the CWB to the local road system in the Wan Chai North and
·
Associated
road lighting, road signing, traffic control and surveillance system; and
·
Other
associated works.
2.2.3.
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 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.
2.3.2.
In the reporting
month, Central-Wanchai Bypass – Tunnel (Causeway Bay Typhoon Shelter Section)
was commenced on 13 July 2011. The details of individual contracts are summarized in Table2.2.

Review of feasibility on the real time noise monitoring stations was
conducted in July with IEC. Station, RTN1a, Tung Lo Wan fireboat Station was
found not appropriate to be a monitoring station for monitoring the IECL Piling
works and Demolition after visited.

Noise Monitoring Parameters, Frequency and Duration
4.1.4.
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.
4.1.5.
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:
·
One set of measurements between
0700 and 1900 hours on normal weekdays.
4.1.6.
Real time noise
shall be carried out at the designated monitoring stations. The following is an
initial guide on the regular monitoring frequency for each station on a 24
hours daily basis when noise generating activities are underway:
·
One set of measurements between
0700 and 1900 hours on normal weekdays.
·
One set of measurements between
1900 and 2300 hours on normal weekdays and 0700 and 2300 hours on public
holidays.
·
One set of measurements between
2300 and 0700 hours on next day on everyday.
4.1.7.
If construction
works are extended to include works during the hours of 1900 – 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
4.1.8.
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.
4.1.9.
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.
4.1.10. The sound level meter shall be checked using an
acoustic calibrator generating a known sound pressure level at a known
frequency before deployment to the site and during each site visit.
Measurements July be accepted as valid only if the calibration level from
before and after the noise measurement agree to within 1.0 dB.
Air Quality Monitoring Stations
4.2.1.
The air
monitoring stations for the Project are listed and shown in Table

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:

According to the
construction programme of Wan Chai Development Phase II, Central-Wan Chai
Bypass and Island Eastern Corridor Link projects, the major construction
activity under Wan Chai Development Phase II were the filling works at NPR2E
and HKCEC1, seawall block construction at TCBR1W, maintenance dredging of
navigation channel and mooring area, HKCEC3w and marine bored piling at MTR
Tunnel Crossing. Advanced piling works at FEHD Whitfield Depot, Central
Interchange, cross-harbour water mains, tunnel works at WCR1, Diaphragm wall
construction at Causeway Bay Typhoon shelter and marine pre-drilling in the
reporting month. The major environmental impact was water quality impact at
7.0.4.
The major
environmental impacts generated from advanced
piling works at FEHD Whitfield Depot were undertaken and sheet piling, pre-drilling and sheet
piling works at Central and tunnel works at Wan Chai East in the
reporting month. No significant air impact was anticipated in the reporting
month. Notwithstanding, a project-related exceedance regarding construction
noise was recorded during non-restricted hours referred to Contract no.

general, it is evaluated that the cumulative construction impact from the
concurrent projects including Wan Chai Development Phase II, and Central
Reclamation Phase III was mainly insignificant.
