For the dredging

operation will be restricted to only 1 small close grab dredger to minimise
the odour impact during the dredging activity. The dredging rate should be reduced as
much as practicable for the area in close proximity to the Police Officers’
Club. The sediments contain
highly contaminated mud which may be disposed with the use of geosynthetic
containers (details shall refer to Section 6), grab dredger has to be used
for filling up the geosynthetic containers on barges. the dredging rate for the removal of
the sediments at the south-west corner of the typhoon shelter shall be slowed
down or restricted to specific non-popular hours in weekdays when it is

Containment of fill within each of the reclamation phases by seawalls is proposed, with the seawall constructed first (above high water mark) with filling carried out behind the completed seawalls.

Silt screens are recommended to be deployed at the seawater intakes during the reclamation works period. Installation of silt screens at the seawater intake points may cause a potential for accumulation and trapping of pollutants, floating debris and refuse behind the silt screens and may lead to potential water quality deterioration at the seawater intake points. Major sources of pollutants and floating refuse include the runoff and storm water discharges from the nearby coastal areas. As a mitigation measure to avoid the pollutant and refuse entrapment problems and to ensure that the impact monitoring results are representative, regular maintenance of the silt screens and refuse collection shall be performed at the monitoring stations at regular intervals on a daily basis. The Contractor shall be responsible for keeping the water behind the silt screen free from floating rubbish and debris during the impact monitoring period. |

Construction Runoff and Drainage Exposed soil areas should be minimised to
reduce the potential for increased siltation, contamination of runoff, and
erosion. Construction runoff
related impacts associated with the above ground construction activities can
be readily controlled through the use of sediment traps and adequate
maintenance of drainage systems to prevent flooding and overflow. Construction site should be provided with adequately designed perimeter channel and pre-treatment facilities and proper maintenance. The boundaries of critical areas of earthworks should be marked and surrounded by dykes or embankments for flood protection. Temporary ditches should be provided to facilitate runoff discharge into the appropriate watercourses, via a silt retention pond. Permanent drainage channels should incorporate sediment basins or traps and baffles to enhance deposition rates. The design of efficient silt removal facilities should be based on the guidelines in Appendix A1 of ProPECC PN 1/94. Ideally, construction works
should be programmed to minimise surface excavation works during the rainy
season (April to September). All
exposed earth areas should be completed as soon as possible after earthworks
have been completed, or alternatively, within 14 days of the cessation of
earthworks where practicable. If
excavation of soil cannot be avoided during the rainy season, or at any time
of year when rainstorms are likely, exposed slope surfaces should be covered
by tarpaulin or other means. A sediment tank constructed

Manholes (including newly
constructed ones) should always be adequately covered and temporarily sealed
so as to prevent silt, construction materials or debris being washed into the
drainage system and storm runoff being directed into foul sewers. Precautions to be taken at
any time of year when rainstorms are likely, actions to be taken when a
rainstorm is imminent or forecast, and actions to be taken during or after
rainstorms are summarised in Appendix A2 of ProPECC PN 1/94. Particular attention should be paid to
the control of silty surface runoff during storm events. Oil interceptors should be
provided in the drainage system and regularly cleaned to prevent the release
of oils and grease into the storm water drainage system after accidental
spillages. The interceptor should
have a bypass to prevent flushing during periods of heavy rain. All vehicles and plant
should be cleaned before leaving a construction site to ensure no earth, mud,
debris and the like is deposited by them on roads. An adequately designed and located
wheel washing bay should be provided at every site exit, and wash-water
should have sand and silt settled out and removed at least on a weekly basis
to ensure the continued efficiency of the process. The section of access road leading to,
and exiting from, the wheel-wash bay to the public road should be paved with
sufficient backfall toward the wheel-wash bay to prevent vehicle tracking of
soil and silty water to public roads and drains. |

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; ·
