such instance or circumstance or change of circumstances. The ET Leader’s
log-book shall be kept readily available for inspection by all persons
assisting in supervision of the implementation of the recommendations of the
EIA Report and this Permit or by the Director or his authorized officers.
Failure to maintain records in the log-book, failure to discharge the duties of
the ET Leader as defined in the EM&A Manual or failure to comply with this
Condition would entitle the Director to require the Permit Holder by notice in
writing to replace the ET Leader. Failure by the Permit Holder to make replacement, or further failure to keep contemporaneous
records in the log-book despite the employment of a new ET Leader may render
the Permit liable to suspension, cancellation or variation.

might affect the monitoring or control of adverse environmental impacts from
the Project. In the case where the IEC fails to so notify the Director of the same, fails to discharge the duties of the IEC as defined in
the EM&A Manual or fails to comply with this Condition, the Director may
require the Permit Holder by notice in writing to replace the IEC. Failure to
replace the IEC as directed or further failure to so notify the Director
despite employment of a new IEC may render the Permit liable to suspension,

11 to 28 of this Permit. The perimeter silt curtains as described in Figure 12 shall be installed around
the HKBCF site before the commencement of marine works. No dredging works of marine sediment shall be

below +2.5mPD during construction of the seawall. After the seawall is
completed except for the
3.17H Only grab dredgers shall be used for dredging works in this Project.
Each grab dredger shall be enclosed by a cage type silt curtain with steel
enclosure as illustrated in Figure 8
of this Permit to reduce sediment loss to the surrounding environment during
dredging operation.
3.17I No more than 5 filling barge trips per day shall be made with a maximum daily rate of
3.17J Upon
completion of
3.17K During the stone column installation, silt
curtain shall be installed near the active stone column installation points as
indicated in Figure 29 of this
Permit. A layer of geotextile
with stone blanket on top shall be placed on the seabed prior to stone column
installation works.
Measures to mitigate water quality impacts from re-deposition of
Dredged Sediment in Sheet Pile Cellular Structures
3.18 The
dredged sediment from the Project shall be disposed of inside the sheet pile
cellular structures within the Project boundary or the re-deposition area
described in Condition
3.19 Before
re-deposition the dredged sediment, a layer of geotextile
shall be placed at the bottom of the sheet pile cellular structures to avoid
the direct contact of the re-deposited sediment and the bottom sediment.
3.20 Not used.
3.22 The dredged sediment shall not be
disturbed after re-deposition. No piling works or deep foundation which may
disturb the dredged sediment is allowed within the cellular structures as
described in Condition 3.18 of this Permit.
Measures to mitigate water quality impacts from re-deposition of
Dredged Sediment within Designated Re-deposition Area
3.22B Prior to the erection of the steel sheet piles and
re-deposition of sediment, silt curtain shall be installed around the area of
the re-deposition subarea.
3.22D After the re-deposition of sediment within
the re-deposition subarea, a layer of geotextile and
a minimum
3.22E Field trial(s) shall be carried out to demonstrate that the removal of the temporary steel sheet piles walls would not cause adverse water quality impacts. A Trial Report shall be endorsed by the IEC and deposited to the Director. No removal of the steel sheet piles, except those involved in the field trial(s), shall be carried out before the Trial Report is endorsed by the IEC and is deposited to the Director.
Measures to mitigate
