Breaches of
Action and Limit Levels
Monitoring results of 1-hr TSP
level and 24-hr TSP level at AMS6 and AMS7/AMS7B are reported in the
corresponding monthly EM&A report prepared by the Contract Nos. HY/2011/03,
HY/2010/02, HY/2013/01 and HY/2013/04 during the reporting period.
Monitoring results of noise
monitoring at NMS2 and NMS3B/NMS3C are reported in the corresponding monthly
EM&A report prepared by the Contract Nos. HY/2010/02, HY/2013/01 and
HY/2013/04 during the reporting period.
Summary of Action and Limit
Level exceedance of 1-hr TSP level and 24-hr TSP level at AMS6 shall be
referred to the corresponding monthly EM&A Reports (i.e. from February 2016 to January 2019)
prepared by Contract No. HY/2011/03 during the reporting period.
There was no Action and
Limit Level exceedance of 1-hr TSP level and 24-hr TSP level recorded at
AMS7/AMS7B during the construction phase of Contract No. HY/2014/05.
Three Action Level
exceedances of 24-hr TSP Level at AMS3B ¡V Site boundary of site office at Work
Area WA2 and one Action Level of 24-hr TSP level were recorded at AMS2 ¡V Tung
Chung Pier by the Environmental Team of Contract No. HY/2013/01, according to
corresponding monthly EM&A Reports
for Contract No. HY/2014/05 during the reporting

Limit Level exceedance for noise recorded at NMS2 and NMS3B/NMS3C during the
construction phase of Contract No. HY/2014/05.
Implementation
Status of Environmental Mitigation Measures
Site inspections were carried
out on a weekly basis to monitor the implementation of proper environmental
pollution control and mitigation measures for the Project. Potential
environmental impacts due to the construction activities were monitored and
reviewed.
Most of the recommended
mitigation measures, as included in the EM&A programme, were implemented
properly in the reporting period.
The recommended
environmental mitigation measures effectively minimize the potential
environmental impacts from the construction works of Contracts (includes the
construction works of Contract No. HY/2013/06 and Contract No. HY/2014/04
within Contract No. HY/2014/05 works area). The EM&A programme effectively
monitored the environmental impacts from the construction activities and ensure
the proper implementation of mitigation measures. No particular
recommendation was advised for the improvement of the programme.
There were six (6)
complaints received in relation to the environmental impact from 29 February
2016 to 31 January 2019.
