Table 4.3 Overall Impact Evaluation of Grassland/Shrubland Mosaic and Other habitats

Evaluation Criteria	Discussion
Habitat quality	The habitat quality of grassland/shrubland mosaic is low.
Species	There will be no potential direct impact to the wildlife inhabiting the areas, although indirect impacts may occur
Size/Abundance	Grassland/shrubland cover approximately 90% of Lung Kwu Chau
Duration	The duration of impact will persist during construction and operation phase.
Reversibility	The impact of direct loss of grassland/shrubland mosaic is irreversible.
Magnitude	The scale of habitat loss is small in the context of the surrounding similar habitats.
Overall impact conclusion	Low
