This report presents the environmental monitoring and
auditing work carried out in accordance to the Section
10.3 of EM&A Manual
and “Environmental Monitoring and Audit

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 the reporting period, all the
contracts were commenced and contract no. 04/HY/2006 had been completed. The details of individual contracts

According to Condition 3.4 of the
EP-364/2009/B, 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 (November 2012) of Central Reclamation Phase III
(CRIII), filling works, road works, building construction works and pipe works
were performed in the November 2012 reporting month. The water quality
monitoring was completed in October 2011 and no project-related exceedance was
recorded for air and noise monitoring during the reporting quarter. 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, ELS work at TS4 and deep excavation at TPCWAE TCBR1W. Advanced piling works
at FEHD Whitfield Depot, Excavation work at Central Interchange, and marine
pilling and box culvert construction at North Point area. The major
environmental impact was water quality impact at Causeway Bay and Wan Chai.
Land-based construction activity were ELS work at TS4, deep excavation at
TPCWAE TCBR1W, piling works at FEHD Whitfield Depot, excavation at Central and
diaphragm wall construction at North Point and tunnel works at Wan Chai East in
the reporting quarter.
7.0.4.
The major environmental impacts generated
from advanced piling works at FEHD Whitfield Depot were undertaken and excavation
work at Central and tunnel works at Wan Chai East, IECL and Causeway Bay
typhoon shelter in the reporting quarter. No
significant air impact was anticipated in the reporting quarter. Besides,
no Project-related exceedance was recorded
during the environmental monitoring events in the reporting quarter. Thus, it is evaluated that the cumulative
construction impact from the concurrent projects including Wan Chai Development
Phase II was insignificant.
