The purpose of this EIA Study is to provide information on the nature and extent of environmental impacts arising from the construction, operation, restoration and aftercare stages of the WENT Landfill Extension and to contribute to decisions on the overall acceptability of the Project, after the implementation of environmental mitigation measures.
This Project is a designated project under Schedule 2, G.1, of the Environmental Impact Assessment Ordinance (EIAO): ¡°A landfill for waste as defined in the Waste Disposal Ordinance (Cap. 354)¡±. The EIA Study, undertaken under the WENT Landfill Extension Feasibility Study, has therefore been carried out in strict accordance with the EIAO, including the requirements stipulated in EIA Study Brief No. ESB-117/2004 issued under the EIAO. An EIA Report has been compiled and is available for public inspection.
