S3.8.1	2.9.3	The Air Pollution Control (Construction Dust) Regulation shall be implemented and good site practices shall be incorporated in the contract clauses to minimize construction dust impact. A number of practical measures are listed below: · Use of regular watering to reduce dust emissions from exposed site surfaces and unpaved road, with complete coverage, particularly during dry weather; · Use of frequent watering for particularly dusty static construction areas and areas close to ASRs; · Side enclosure and covering of any aggregate or dusty material storage piles to reduce emissions. Where this is not practicable owing to frequent usage, watering shall be applied to aggregate fines; · Open stockpiles shall be avoided or covered. Where possible, prevent placing dusty material storage piles near ASRs; · Tarpaulin covering of all dusty vehicle loads transported to, from and between site location; · Establishment and use of vehicle wheel and body washing facilities at the exit points of the site; · Provision of wind shield and dust extraction units or similar dust mitigation measures at the loading points, and use of water sprinklers at the loading area where dust generation is likely during the loading process of loose material particularly in dry seasons/periods; · Imposition of speed controls for vehicles on unpaved site roads. Ten kilometers per hour is the recommended limit; · Where possible, routing of vehicles and positioning of construction plant should be at the maximum possible distance from ASRs; and · Instigation of an environmental monitoring and auditing program to monitor the construction process in order to enforce controls and modify method of work if dusty conditions arise.

S5.8.33	S4.7		Construction works should be programmed to minimize soil excavation works in rainy seasons (April to September). If excavation in soil could not be avoided in these months or at any time of year when rainstorms are likely, for the purpose of preventing soil erosion, temporary exposed slope surfaces should be covered e.g. by tarpaulin, and temporary access roads should be protected by crushed stone or gravel, as excavation proceeds. Intercepting channels should be provided (e.g. along the crest / edge of excavation) to prevent storm runoff from washing across exposed soil surfaces. Arrangements should always be in place to ensure that adequate surface protection measures can be safely carried out well before the arrival of a rainstorm.

S7.8.6		Standard good site practice measures should be implemented throughout the construction phase. The measures should include: · Placement of equipment or stockpile in designated works areas and access routes selected on existing disturbed land to minimise disturbance to natural habitats. · Construction activities should be restricted to work areas that should be clearly demarcated. The work areas should be reinstated after completion of the works. · Waste skips should be provided to collect general refuse and construction wastes. The wastes should be disposed of timely and properly off-site. · General drainage arrangements should include sediment and oil traps to collect and control construction site run-off. · Open burning on works sites is illegal, and should be strictly prohibited.

S7.8.7		Construction and operation phase disturbance impacts are expected to be relatively minor in all three Assessment Areas. Nevertheless, measures should be implemented to minimise potential disturbance where possible, particularly during the construction phase. The following measures are recommended: · Use of Quiet Mechanical Plant during the construction phase should be adopted wherever possible. · General measures to reduce noise generated during the construction phase (as outlined in Section 4.8.5 of the Report) should be effectively implemented. · Hoarding or fencing should be erected around the works area boundaries during the construction phase. The hoarding would screen adjacent habitats from construction phase activities, reduce noise disturbance to these habitats and also to restrict access to habitats adjacent to works areas by site workers. The use of hoarding/fencing would be of most importance in the E-WCR and PSK Assessment Areas, where it would reduce disturbance to moderate-high ecological value secondary woodland and moderate ecological value stream habitats.

S7.8.15		Measures to control potential sedimentation/water quality impacts during the construction phase should be implemented. Such measures are detailed in Section 5 of EIA Report Volume 1, and should include: · To minimize sedimentation and soil erosion, soil excavation should be scheduled for the dry season where practicable. Exposed areas of soil should be covered with tarpaulin or other material to minimize potential sedimentation. · Interceptor channels should be constructed around the boundaries of works areas to collect site run-off. Run-off should be routed through silt traps/oil interceptors before being discharged. · Adequate toilet facilities should be provided for site workers.

S7.8.9		It is recommended that adult Philippine Neon Gobies are captured from the E-WCR Stream and transferred to fish tanks prior to the start of the construction phase. In this way, the habitat conditions of the fishes can be closely monitored and controlled, thereby maximising the probability of their survival. Following the completion of Phase I Reclamation Works, the fish would be re-introduced into the preserved E-WCR Stream.

S7.8.11		The design of reclamation works for the WCR have been considered to maintain the connection between the E-WCR Stream and marine habitats. The alignment of the reclamation would avoid an area of marine habitat at the base of the E-WCR Stream. This area would in turn be connected to Junk Bay via a large pipe (2.5m in diameter) running underneath the proposed reclamation for the remainder of the construction phase. A permanent culvert of similar size would be constructed to replace the pipe during operation.	Minimise impacts to Neon Goby	WCR reclamation/ construction phase	CEDD’s Contractors		Ö			-
S7.8.12 & S7.10.3		Further surveys of the E-WCR stream should be conducted 1-2 years before construction works commence. The surveys should record the number of Philippine Neon Gobies present in the Stream. At least four surveys should be conducted, covering both the wet and dry seasons. The requirement for construction phase mitigation measures to minimize impacts to Philippine Neon Gobies should be reviewed based on the findings of these surveys.

For WCR
S8.8.3 & S8.10.2		The feasibility of transplanting potentially impacted hard corals from the reclamation area to suitable nearby habitats is investigated during the detailed design stage of the Project. To achieve this aim, surveys of the proposed reclamation area should be conducted during the detailed design stage, at least 8 months prior to the start of the construction phase. These surveys should focus on identifying and mapping hard corals that would be suitable for transplantation (i.e., corals encrusting small boulders of a manageable size that can be moved by divers with lifting aids). If corals suitable for transplantation are identified during these surveys, a detailed transplantation methodology (including monitoring of transplanted corals) should be drafted during the detailed design stage of the Project.	Minimise impacts to corals	WCR Reclamation area/ design/ construction phase	Marine ecologist appointed by CEDD.	Ö	Ö
S8.8.4		During construction phase for Phase I reclamation, mitigation measures used to control water quality (e.g. deployment of a silt curtain and reduced dredging rate as presented in Section 5) would serve to protect corals in proximity to the reclamation to acceptable levels. Construction methods for reclamation would involve filling within enclosed areas behind seawalls with no dredging required for Phase II and Phase III of the WCR reclamation. These construction methods are expected to result in no substantial water quality or marine ecological impacts. Nevertheless, silt curtains would be deployed and other measures implemented to minimise any potential water quality impacts during these works.	Minimise impacts to corals	WCR/ Construction phase	CEDD’s Contractors		Ö
S8.8.5		Mitigation is recommended to prevent potentially lethal direct impacts of construction activities on individual Grassy Puffers, if found stranded in rock pools within the works area. It is recommended that the rock pool is visited after each spring tide (i.e. about every 2 weeks) during the construction phase of the WCR reclamation until the shore is no longer available due to filling associated with the Project. Any puffers present in the pool should be captured and transferred to a temporary holding tank. Captured fish should be returned to the sea outside the project works boundary. Owing to their defence mechanism of self-inflating, particular care should be employed when capturing and releasing the puffer fish (i.e. keeping the fish submerged in water at all times to prevent gulping of air, which could be lethal). Details of mitigation plans to rescue stranded puffers should be drafted at the detailed design stage.	Minimise impacts to Puffer Fish	WCR/ Design and Construction phase	CEDD’s Contractors	Ö	Ö
S8.8.7		To provide suitable substrata for recolonisation by corals, the seawall of the proposed WCR was recommended to be of a rubble mound design. Elsewhere in Hong Kong seawall habitat have been found to be suitable to support coral growth. The rubble mound seawall consisting of haphazardly arranged boulders is expected to provide a large amount of hard substrata and increased surface areas for settlement and recruitment of coral assemblages similar to those previously recorded from this coast.
