ET confirmed with the Resident Site
Staff that from 1900hrs to 2115hrs on 06 January 2016, shifting of equipment
and socket H-pile casing was undertaken by the Contractor of HK/2012/08 at the
concerned location. Total one crawler crane was in operation.
According to the relevant site records
provided by RSS, shifting of equipment and socket H-pile casing was undertaken
by the Contractor of HK/2012/08 at the concerned location from 1900hrs to
2115hrs on 06 January 2016. Total one crawler crane was in operation and the
relevant Construction Noise Permit GW-RS0976-15 for the concerned operation was
confirmed in place. Based on the above, the construction activities conducted
under Contract HK/2012/08 on 06 January 2016 after 1900hrs was in compliance
with the statutory requirement. Nevertheless, the Contractor was reminded to
upkeep the site control system for construction works carried out during
restricted hours and night time for Construction Noise Permit compliance in
view of the nearby public concern.
The second ICC complainant on 12 January
2016 (ICC Ref: #2-1759629742) reported that a foul sewer was found choking and
foul water flows onto the carriageways.
ET confirmed with the Resident Site
Staff that no discharge point from the Contractor of HY/2009/15 is located
within the concern portion of public drain (roadside gully) along Hung Hing
Road. The observed yellow pipe extending from the roadside gully at Hung Hing
Road into the site area under Contract HY/2009/15 was installed by the
Contractor of HY/2009/15 to pump excessive sewage from the roadside gully on 11
January 2016.
According to relevant site records and
information provided by RSS, a steady flow of wastewater, noticeably sewer-like
odour, was seeping through an existing sewage manhole at Hung Hing Road on 11
January 2016 and resulting in the formation of local ponding formed around the
low point gully nearby. Based on relevant site information, no discharge point
from the Contractor of HY/2009/15 was located at the concerned public drain
(roadside gully) along Hung Hing Road while the observed yellow pipe extending
from the roadside gully at Hung Hing Road into Contract HY/2009/15 site area
was installed by the Contractor of HY/2009/15 to pump excessive sewage from the
roadside gully on 11 January 2016. In view of no discharge point established
under Contractor HY/2009/15 was observed at the concerned portion of Hung Hing
Road, no direct information indicating the association with the Contractor of
HY/2009/15 is considered available.
Follow up inspection was conducted
during the weekly environmental inspection on 26 January 2016, no further
accumulation of wastewater and no particular blockage of the concerned roadside
gully at Hung Hing Road was observed. In addition, no overflow from the
roadside sewer was observed. Nevertheless, the Contractor of HY/2009/15 was
reminded to upkeep the site exit condition to avoid any potential impact to the
surroundings.
ET confirmed
with the Resident Site Staff that no construction activities with potential
runoff at the main entrance of PRE Office was conducted under Contractor of
HY/2009/15 on 11, 14, 15 and 17 January 2016.Concreting for Seawall
Reinstatement at TPCWAE was conducted under Contractor of HY/2009/15 on 12
January 2016 and 18 January 2016.
Concreting for
construction works at covered Tunnel by using concrete pump at TPCWAE was
conducted under Contractor of HY/2009/15 on 13 January 2016 and 16 January
2016.
According to
relevant site records and information provided by RSS, a steady flow of
wastewater, noticeably sewer-like odour, was seeping through an existing sewage
manhole at Hung Hing Road on 11 January 2016 and resulting in the formation of
local ponding formed around the low point gully nearby.
Based on
relevant site information provided by RSS, no construction activity with
potential runoff at the main entrance of PRE Office were conducted under
Contractor of HY/2009/15 on 11, 14, 15 and 17 January 2016 while concreting for
seawall reinstatement at TPCWAE were conducted on 12 January 2016 and 18
January 2016 and concreting for construction works at covered Tunnel by using
concrete pump at TPCWAE were conducted on 13 January 2016 and 16 January 2016.
All construction runoff was pumped to the wastewater treatment facility. In
addition, no discharge point from the Contractor of HY/2009/15 was located at
the concerned public drain (roadside gully) along Hung Hing Road.
Follow up
inspection was conducted during the weekly environmental inspection on 26
January 2016. No further accumulation of wastewater and particular blockage of
the concerned roadside gully at Hung Hing Road was observed and no overflow
from the roadside sewer was observed. The condition of the construction site
exit under HY/2009/15 was generally in order and no particular construction
surface runoff was observed. Nevertheless, the Contractor of HY/2009/15 was
reminded to upkeep the site exit condition to avoid any potential impact to the
surroundings.

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 Designated 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.
Design and Construction of Central ¡V 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:
¡P
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);
¡P
The Central Interchange near the Rumsey Street Flyover to provide road
connections to the Central area;
¡P
Tunnel control buildings and ventilation buildings;
¡P
Slip roads to connect the CWB to the local road system in the Wan Chai
North and Causeway Bay area;
¡P
Associated road lighting, road signing, traffic control and surveillance
system; and
¡P
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.
