The following good site practices shall be implemented:

·          Only well-maintained plant should be operated on-site and plant should be serviced regularly during the construction programme

·          Silencers or mufflers on construction equipment should be utilised and should be properly maintained during the construction programme

·          Mobile plant, if any, should be sited as far away from NSRs as possible

·          Machines and plant (such as trucks) that may be in intermittent use should be shut down between work periods or should be throttled down to a minimum

·          Plant known to emit noise strongly in one direction should, wherever possible, be orientated so that the noise is directed away from the nearby NSRs

·          Material stockpiles and other structures should be effectively utilised, wherever practicable, in screening noise from on-site construction activities

Construction Site Runoff and General Construction Activities

·          The practices outlined in ProPECC PN 1/94 Construction Site Drainage should be adopted where applicable, to minimise the potential water quality impacts from construction site runoff and various construction activities. 

·          There is a need to apply to EPD for a discharge licence for discharging effluent from the construction site, if any. The discharge quality is required to meet the requirements specified in the discharge licence. Any wastewater generated from the works areas should be treated so that it satisfies all the standards listed in the TM-DSS.  It is anticipated that the wastewater generated from the works areas, if any, would be of small quantity.

·          Good site practices should be adopted to collect the rubbish and litter on the construction sites so as to prevent the rubbish and litter from spreading from the site area.  It is recommended to clean the construction sites on a regular basis.

·          Scavenging service for collecting any materials/ waste loss from the site into the sea should be provided on a need basis.

Sewage from Workforce

·          The presence of construction workers generates sewage.  The construction workers can make use of the existing toilet facilities within the MFT, as necessary. If required, sufficient portable chemical toilets should be provided in the works areas, and a licensed collector should be deployed for appropriate disposal and maintenance of the toilets on a regular basis. 

·          Notices should be posted at conspicuous locations to remind the workers not to discharge any sewage or wastewater into the nearby environment during the construction phase of the Project.  Regular environmental audit on the construction site can provide an effective control of any malpractices and can achieve continual improvement of environmental performance on site.  It is anticipated that sewage generation during the construction phase of the Project would not cause water pollution problem after undertaking all required measures.

Accidental Spillage of Chemicals

Any service shop and maintenance facilities should be located within a bunded area, and sumps and oil interceptors should be provided. Maintenance of equipment involving activities with potential for leakage and spillage should only be undertaken within the areas appropriately equipped to control these discharges.

Good Site Practices

Good site practices during the construction activities include:

·          Nomination of an approved personnel, such as a site manager, to be responsible for the implementation of good site practices, arrangements for collection and effective disposal to an appropriate facility, of all wastes generated at the site.

·          Training of site personnel in site cleanliness, appropriate waste management procedures and concepts of waste reduction, reuse and recycling.

·          Provision of sufficient waste disposal points and regular collection for disposal.

·          Appropriate measures to minimise windblown litter and dust during transportation of waste by either covering trucks or by transporting wastes in enclosed containers.

·          Regular cleaning and maintenance programme for drainage systems, sumps and oil interceptors.

·          A Waste Management Plan shall be prepared in accordance with ETWB TCW No. 15/2003 and submitted to the Engineer for approval.

General Refuse

General refuse shall be stored in enclosed bins or compaction units.  A reputable waste collector shall be employed by the contractor to remove general refuse from the site.  An enclosed and covered area is preferred to reduce the occurrence of ‘wind blown’ light material.

Chemical Wastes

If chemical wastes are produced at the construction site, the Contractor would be required to register with the EPD as a Chemical Waste Producer and to follow the guidelines stated in the Code of Practice on the Packaging, Labelling and Storage of Chemical Wastes.   The Waste Disposal Ordinance (Cap 354) and its subsidiary regulations, in particular the Waste Disposal (Chemical Waste) (General) Regulation, should be observed and complied with for control of chemical wastes.  The Contractor shall use a licensed collector to transport and dispose of the chemical wastes, to either the Chemical Waste Treatment Centre at Tsing Yi, or another licensed facility, in accordance with the Waste Disposal (Chemical Waste) (General) Regulation.

Disposal of chemical wastes should be carried out in compliance with the Waste Disposal Ordinance. The Code of Practice on the Packaging, Labelling and Storage of Chemical Wastes published under the Waste Disposal Ordinance details the requirements to deal with chemical wastes. General requirements are given as follows:

·         Suitable containers should be used to hold the chemical wastes to avoid leakage or spillage during storage, handling and transport.

·         Chemical waste containers should be suitably labelled, to notify and warn the personnel who are handling the wastes, to avoid accidents.

·         Storage area should be selected at a safe location on site and adequate space should be allocated to the storage area.
