mitigation measures and develop enhancement programmes. Before its submission
to the Director, the noise assessment report shall be certified by the
Environmental Manager with at least 7 years of experience in environmental
monitoring or environmental management and verified by the Independent
Environmental Checker with at least 7 years of experience in environmental
monitoring or environmental management. All measures recommended in the

through which the Project passes and will facilitate, as yet uncommitted,
developments, to be considered in much closer proximity to the railway than
would otherwise be the case.
多重充氣空間系統的設計應該具備彈性，可供將來增大，使圍牆屏障的高度可以由
1.2米逐步提高，以至全面圍封，從而提高消減噪音的效能。這樣可為工程項目所經過的地區的長遠土地用途規劃，提供較大的彈性，並使未承諾的發展項目有較大可能獲考慮在較貼近鐵路的地方興建。

with at least 7 years of experience in environmental monitoring or
environmental management and approved by the Director.
許可證持有人須完全執行在許可證編號EP-004/1998或其後更改許可證下批准的營辦環境監測及審核手冊所訂立的環境監察及審核規定。若要對環境監察及審核安排和規定作出任何更改，有環境監察及審核或環境管理方面至少有 7 年經驗的環境經理必須具備充分理由，並經由在環境監察及審核或環境管理方面至少有
7 年經驗的獨立環境查核人核證，然後提交署長批准。

註 ：
1. This Environmental Permit consists of three parts, namely, PART A (Main Permit), PART B (Description of Designated Project) and part C (Permit Conditions).
本環境許可證共有3部，即：A部（許可證主要部分）；B部（指定工程項目的說明）；及C部（許可證條件）。
2. The Permit Holder may apply under section 13 of the Environmental Impact Assessment Ordinance to the Director for a variation of the conditions of this Environmental Permit. The Permit Holder shall replace the original Permit displayed on the Project site, by the amended Permit.
許可證持有人可根據環境影響評估條例第 13條的規定向署長申請更改本環境許可證的條件。許可證持有人須將經修改的許可證，替換在工程項目工地內展示的原有許可證。
3. A person who assumes the responsibility for the whole or a part of the Project may, before he assumes responsibility of the Project, apply under section 12 of the Ordinance to the Director for a further Environmental Permit.
承擔指定工程項目的整項或部分工程的責任的人，在承擔指定工程項目責任之前，可根據條例第 12條的規定向署長申請新的環境許可證。
4. Under section 14 of the Ordinance, the Director with the consent of the Secretary for Environment, may suspend, vary or cancel this Permit. The Permit shall be removed from the display on the Project site.

Measures to Mitigate the Landfill Gas Hazard During the Operation of the Project
附錄 A
工程項目營運期間的堆填區沼氣風險緩解措施
During non-operational hours and particularly at the time when the first train travels through the tunnel each day, there is potential for accumulated gas to be ignited by an electrical spark caused by the train. To reduce the likelihood of this occurrence, the measures outlines below shall be adopted:
在非運作時間及特別是每天首班列車駛過隧道時，列車所產生的電火花有可能燃點積聚的氣體。為減低發生上述情況的可能，須採用下列措施：
(a) Staff undertaking the daily safety check of each line prior to daily operation shall be trained in the use of portable gas detection equipment. Measurement of methane and carbon dioxide concentrations shall be undertaken as part of the daily safety check of the tunnels. Should the methane concentration exceed 10% of the Lower Explosive Limit (LEL), ventilation shall be increased and operation of the train service shall not commence until the methane level falls below 10% of the LEL. Should the methane concentration exceed 20% of the LEL, all personnel shall be evacuated from the tunnels, operation of the train service shall not commence, and ventilation shall be increased to restore the methane concentration to below 10% of the LEL prior to operation of the train service.
負責在火車每天運作前為每條行車線進行安全檢查的員工，必須接受使用手提氣體探測設備的訓練。量度甲烷和二氧化碳濃度須為每天隧道安全檢查工作的一部分。如甲烷濃度超出爆炸濃度下限百分之十，須加強通風，並不得展開火車服務，直至 甲烷濃度回落至爆炸濃度下限百分之十以下。如甲烷濃度超出爆炸濃度下限百分之二十，所有人員均須撤離隧道，火車服務不得展開，並須加強通風，直至甲烷濃度回落至爆炸濃度下限百分之十以下，火車服務方可展開。
(b) All maintenance personnel and station staff working within the tunnels shall be educated in the dangers of landfill gas and the signs and symptoms of asphyxia.
所有在隧道內工作的維修人員和車站職員，應接受訓練，以認識有關堆填區沼氣危險及引起窒息的蹟象和徵兆。
(c) Smoking within the tunnels shall be prohibited at all times.
隧道內任何時間均不准吸煙。
(d) An assumed presence of landfill gas should be adopted at all times by maintenance workers and a strictly regulated "work permit procedure" involving training, ventilation, gas monitoring, safety tracking and communication with maintenance staff, enforcement of the no smoking order and use of only intrinsically safe equipment and electrical leads;
維修工人在任何時間均應假設堆填區沼氣存在，並應制訂嚴格的「工作許可證程序」，包括訓練、通風系統、氣體監測、維修人員的安全追蹤和聯絡、執行嚴禁吸煙指令，以及只限使用本質安全的設備和電線。
(e) Monitoring for methane and carbon dioxide as recommended above shall be conducted using equipment with the following indication ranges.
(i) Methane 0-100%LEL and 0-100%v/v
(ii) Carbon dioxide 0-100%
(iii) Oxygen 0-21%
上文建議的甲烷和二氧化碳的監測工作，須使用設有下列顯示幅度的設備進行。
(i) 甲烷 0-100%LEL及容積百分比0-100%
(ii) 二氧化碳 0-100%
(iii) 氧氣 0-21%
Measures to Mitigate the Water Quality Impact During the Operation of the Project
附錄 B
工程項目營運期間的水質影響緩解措施
To mitigate the water quality impact during the operation of the Project:
在工程項目營運期間緩解水質影響的措施：
(a) A surface water drainage system shall be provided to collect operational tunnel seepage during the operation of the Project. Where oils and lubricating fluids could be spilt, the operational tunnel discharge and track runoff should pass through oil and grit/silt interceptors/chambers to remove oil, grease and sediment before being pumped to the public storm water drainage system via a rising main. However, washing water from regular tunnel washing shall be directed to foul sewers after pre-treatment.
工程項目營運期間，須設置地面排水系統，以收集因運作而由隧道滲出的水。如果有可能溢出油類及潤滑液，因運作而由隧道排放的物質及車軌徑流須先經過油類及砂礫 /淤泥阻截器 /收集箱，以清除油、油脂和沉積物，然後才經上升總管排入公共雨水渠系統。然而，一般用以清洗隧道的洗滌水須先經預處理後才引至污水渠。
(b) All silt traps and oil interceptors shall be regularly cleaned and maintained during the operation of the Project.
在工程項目營運期間，所有淤泥捕集裝置及截油器均須定期清洗及修護。
(c) Contents of the oil interceptors shall be collected for reuse, or transferred to an appropriate disposal facility.
須收集截油器內的物質循環再用，或轉送至適當的處置設施。
(d) Sanitary fitments and drainage works shall be provided taking into account the Practice Note for Professional Persons, No. 5/93 (ProPECC PN 5/93) - Drainage Plans subject to Comment by the Environmental Protection Department.
設置衛生設備及排水系統時，須參考有關須經由環境保護署評論的排水渠圖則事宜的《專業人士環保事務諮詢委員會專業守則 5/93》。
