·
dredging
should be undertaken using grab dredgers with a maximum rate of working of
2,000 m3 day-1; and
·
filling
should be undertaken behind seawalls which have been constructed above the
water surface.
·
Siu Ho Wan
- 2 grab dredgers;
·
Northshore
- 1 grab dredger;
·
Fa Peng - 3
grab dredgers; and
·
Theme Park
Extension - 3 grab dredgers.
·
the use of
rockfill containing no soil or organic debris will prevent the loss of fine
sediment; and
·
if the
trenches are to be backfilled with sandfill then the fill should be placed by
pumping down the arm of a trailing suction hopper dredger, which is positioned
within the trench below the level of the surrounding seabed.
·
fully-enclosed
grabs should be used when dredging contaminated sediments to minimise the loss
of sediment during the raising of the loaded grabs through the water column;
·
tightly
closing grabs should be used when dredging uncontaminated sediments to restrict
the losses of sediment to suspension;
·
the descent
speed of grabs should be controlled to minimise the seabed impact speed;
·
barges
should be loaded carefully to avoid splashing of material;
·
all barges
used for the transport of dredged materials should be fitted with tight bottom
seals in order to prevent leakage of material during loading and transport;
·
all barges
should be filled to a level which ensures that material does not spill over
during loading and transport to the disposal site and that adequate freeboard
is maintained to ensure that the decks are not washed by wave action;
·
the speed
of vessels should be controlled within the works area to prevent propeller wash
from stirring up the sea bed sediments;
·
“rainbowing”
sand fill will not be permitted; and
·
the works
shall cause no visible foam, oil, grease or litter or other objectionable
matter to be present in the water within and adjacent to the reclamation site
and along the route to and from the marine borrow area and disposal site.

·
The island
reclamation in Tung Chung Bay was deleted;
·
The layout
of the South East Kowloon reclamation was reduced to account for the new
planning proposals for the area;
·
A
reclamation was introduced on the western side of Lamma Island for a proposed
Waste to Energy Incineration Facility; and

The West

necessary once any proposed container terminals were constructed in the

The
computational grid is sufficiently refined to provide representative simulations
results;
·
The model
has been calibrated and validated to provide reliable predictions of
hydrodynamics in the areas affected by the Northshore Lantau Development
reclamations; and
·
The
simulations comprise a sufficient spin up period of 8 days so that the initial
conditions do not affect the results.
·
The upper
bound estimates were used for the sewage effluent flows and pollutant
concentrations from the Northshore Lantau Development and from other
developments on Lantau Island; and
·
The
background pollutant loads have been derived from conservative population
estimates, and may therefore over-predict the loads.
