in the EM&A Manual of the approved Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA)
Report for Wan Chai Development phase II and Central-Wan Chai Bypass (Register
No.: AEIAR-125/2008) and in the EM&A Manual of the approved EIA Report for
Central-Wan Chai Bypass and Island Eastern Corridor Link (Register No.
AEIAR-014/2001).

Section 8     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.
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.

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

Monitoring Parameters, Frequency and Duration
3.1.3.
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.
3.1.4.
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:
 -
One
set of measurements between 0700 and 1900 hours on normal weekdays.
3.1.5.

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.
3.1.8.
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.

According
to Condition 3.4 of the EP-364/2009/A, this section addresses the relevant
cumulative construction impact due to the concurrent activities of the current
projects including the Central Reclamation Phase III (CRIII), Wan Chai
Development Phase II (WDII), Central-WanChai Bypass (CWB), Island Eastern
Corridor Link projects (IECL) and Wan Chai Development Phase II  Central
 Wan Chai Bypass at Wan Chai East (CWB Tunnel).
7.0.2.
According to the Monthly EM&A report (July 2012)
of Central Reclamation Phase III (CRIII), filling works, building construction
works and pipe works were performed in the reporting period. The water quality
monitoring was completed in October 2011 and no exceedance was recorded for air
and noise monitoring. It can be
concluded that cumulative construction impact due to the concurrent activities
of the current projects with the Central Reclamation Phase III (CRIII) was
insignificant.
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 activity under Wan Chai Development Phase II
was marine works at HKCEC areas, cross-harbour Watermains, Fresh Watermains,
Cooling Watermains and Salt Watermains Installations, tunnel works at Wan Chai
East, diaphragm wall construction at TS4; dredging at TS2; temporary
reclamation removal at TS1 and deep excavation at TPCWAE TCBR1W.
Advanced piling works at FEHD Whitfield Depot, Central Interchange, and
diaphragm wall construction at North Point area. The major environmental impact
was water quality impact at Causeway Bay and Wan Chai. Land-based construction
activity were Diaphragm wall construction at TS4, deep excavation at TPCWAE
TCBR1W, piling works at FEHD Whitfield Depot, Diaphragm wall at Central and
North Point and tunnel works at Wan Chai East in the reporting period.
7.0.4.
The
major environmental impacts generated from advanced piling works at FEHD
Whitfield Depot were undertaken and Diaphragm wall construction at Central and
tunnel works at Wan Chai East, IECL and Causeway Bay typhoon shelter in the
reporting month. No significant air impact was anticipated in the reporting
month. Besides, no Project-related exceedance was recorded during the
environmental monitoring events in the reporting month. Thus, it is evaluated that the cumulative
construction impact from the concurrent projects including Wan Chai Development
Phase II was insignificant.
