Table 7.6f Overall Impact Evaluation of Inactive Agriculture (Dry & Wet) and Shrubland Habitats

Evaluation Criteria	Inactive Agriculture (Dry & Wet)	Shrubland
Habitat quality	Luk Tei Tong Marsh: Moderate-high Other Inactive Agriculture: Low-moderate.	Low-moderate.
Species	Potential direct impact to Chinese Bullfrog. Potential indirect impact to wildlife due to construction phase disturbance.	No impact.
Size/Abundance	Direct and permanent impact to 0.8ha of Luk Tei Tong Marsh due to LTT River & LTT (2) River Channel Construction, although affected area of marsh is fairly dry, disturbed and not considered of particular ecological interest. Direct impact to 0.02ha of low-moderate ecological value inactive agricultural land due to PNH River Channel Construction.	No impact.
Duration	Loss of habitat would be permanent. Indirect impacts such as noise disturbance would be largely limited to the construction phase.	No impact.
Reversibility	Loss of habitat would be irreversible. Indirect impacts such as noise disturbance would be largely limited to the construction phase.	No impact.
Magnitude	Luk Tei Tong Marsh: Low-moderate. Other Inactive Agriculture: Low.	No impact.
Overall impact conclusion	Luk Tei Tong Marsh: Moderate. Other Inactive Agriculture: Low.	No impact.
