under Contract HK/2012/08. One
lorry crane was involved for lifting falsework elements. Dust suppression
measures including the water sprinklers were installed along site haul road.
Regularly removed the floating refuse at
the waterfront of Lung King Street was conducted by the Contractor of
HK/2012/08. The concerned observed floating foam at the waterfront of Lung King
Street was found originating from the diverted cooling mains discharge.
According to the relevant site records

Follow up inspection was conducted
during the weekly environmental site inspection on 15 March 2016 and dust
suppression measures including watering for haul road, tarpaulin sheet covering
for cement bags stored on site and three side and top covering for grouting
station were implemented while and no dark smoke emission from the plant and
machinery deployed on site was observed. Noise mitigation measures including
acoustic covering was implementing for excavator mounted breaker. In addition,
removal of floating refuse on site was observed implemented by the Contractor
of HK/2012/08 and no accumulation of floating refuse was found. The concerned
foam originating from diverted cooling mains discharge was observed during
inspection and the dispersion of the concerned foam of unknown chemical nature
was observed isolated from the nearby public area.
Nevertheless, in view of the public
concern, the Contractor was recommended to maintain regular checking of the
plants and equipment deployed on site to avoid potential air quality impact to
the nearby public and to maintain adequate dust suppression measures on site to
avoid potential dust impact to the surroundings. The Contractor was reminded to
maintain regular cleaning of floating refuse within the construction site area
to avoid potential nuisance to the surroundings. The Contractor was also
reminded to maintain the noise mitigation measure if breaking works would be
required. The Contractor was also suggested to reflect the observed foam to
relevant Cooling Mains owners.

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 – 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 Causeway Bay area;
·
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.
