Based on the findings assembled in Step 4, environmental constraints, issues, opportunities as well as their linkages should be identified and examined, providing inputs to the next step where appropriate. In the identification and examination process, both the characteristics of impact generators and impacts receivers should be taken into account. For instance, in RDS2, the impact generators (i.e. railway networks’ and developments’ characteristics) and the impact receivers (i.e. the characteristics on environment and sensitive land uses) should be fully considered.

During the Study, the following environmental constraints and their possible opportunities were identified and examined in a systematic manner:
Besides, the following environmentally sensitive areas were identified and examined:
