5.8.2	4.3.2	Construction run-off and Drainage Ÿ Silt removal facilities such as silt traps or sedimentation facilities should be provided to remove silt particles from runoff to meet the requirements of the TM standards under the WPCO. The design of silt removal facilities should be based on the guidelines provided in ProPECC PN 1/94. All drainage facilities and erosion and sediment control structures should be inspected monthly and maintained to ensure proper and efficient operation at all times and particularly during rainstorms. Ÿ Careful programming of the works to minimise surface excavations for the road improvement works during the wet season. If excavation of soil cannot be avoided during the wet season, exposed slope surfaces should be covered by a tarpaulin or other means. Other measures that need to be implemented before, during, and after rainstorms are summarized in ProPECC PN 1/94. Ÿ Exposed soil surfaces should be protected by paving or fill material as soon as possible to reduce the potential of soil erosion. Ÿ Open stockpiles of construction materials or construction wastes on-site should be covered with tarpaulin or similar fabric during rainstorms. These materials should not be placed near water courses.	Works Sites / During Construction Phase	Contractor		Ö			ProPECC PN 1/94 WPCO (TM-DSS)
5.8.3 -5.8.4	4.3.3	General Construction Activities Ÿ Debris and refuse generated on-site should be collected, handled and disposed of properly to avoid entering the nearby local stormwater drainage system. Ÿ Stockpiles of cement and other construction materials should be kept covered when not being used. Ÿ Oils and fuels should only be used and stored in designated areas which have pollution prevention facilities. All fuel tanks and storage areas should be provided with locks and be sited on sealed areas, within bunds of a capacity equal to 110% of the storage capacity of the largest tank.

6.6.1	5.2.2	Good Site Practices Ÿ Nomination of an approved person, such as a site manager, to be responsible for good site practices, arrangements for collection and effective disposal to an appropriate facility, of all wastes generated at the site. Ÿ Training of site personnel in proper waste management and chemical waste handling procedures. Ÿ Provision of sufficient waste disposal points and regular collection for disposal. Ÿ Appropriate measures to minimise windblown litter and dust during transportation of waste by either covering trucks or by transporting wastes in enclosed containers. Ÿ Regular cleaning and maintenance programme for drainage systems, sumps and oil interceptors. Ÿ A recording system for the amount of wastes generated, recycled and disposed of (including the disposal sites).	Works Sites / During Construction Phase	Contractor		Ö			Waste Disposal Ordinance (Cap. 354)
6.6.2	5.2.3	Waste Reduction Measures Good management and control can prevent the generation of a significant amount of waste. Waste reduction is best achieved at the planning and design stage, as well as by ensuring the implementation of good site practices. Recommendations to achieve waste reduction include: Ÿ Segregation and storage of different types of waste in different containers, skips or stockpiles to enhance reuse or recycling of materials and their proper disposal. Ÿ Encourage collection of aluminium cans, PET bottles and paper by providing separate labelled bins to enable these wastes to be segregated from other general refuse generated by the work force. Ÿ Any unused chemicals or those with remaining functional capacity shall be recycled. Ÿ Use of reusable non-timber formwork to reduce the amount of C&D material. Ÿ Prior to disposal of C&D waste, it is recommended that wood, steel and other metals shall be separated for re-use and / or recycling to minimise the quantity of waste to be disposed of to landfill. Ÿ Proper storage and site practices to minimise the potential for damage or contamination of construction materials. Ÿ Plan and stock construction materials carefully to minimise amount of waste generated and avoid unnecessary generation of waste.	Works Sites / During Construction Phase	Contractor		Ö			Waste Disposal Ordinance (Cap. 354)
6.6.4	5.2.5	Construction and Demolition (C&D) Material Ÿ The excavated fill material shall be re-used on-site as backfill material as far as possible. Ÿ The surplus excavated material should be disposed of at the designated public fill reception facility, as agreed with the Secretary of the Public Fill Committee, for other beneficial uses. Ÿ C&D waste would require disposal to the designated landfill site. Ÿ In order to monitor the disposal of C&D materials at the public fill reception facility and landfill and to control fly-tipping, a trip-ticket system should be included. One may make reference to ETWB TCW No. 31/2004 for details.	Works Sites / During Construction Phase	Contractor		Ö			Waste Disposal Ordinance (Cap. 354)
6.6.5	5.2.6	Chemical Wastes Ÿ After use, chemical wastes (for example, cleaning fluids, solvents, lubrication oil and fuel) should be handled according to the Code of Practice on the Packaging, Labelling and Storage of Chemical Wastes. Ÿ Spent chemicals should be collected by a licensed collector for disposal at the CWTC or other licensed facility, in accordance with the Waste Disposal (Chemical Waste) (General) Regulation.

6.6.6	5.2.7	General Refuse Ÿ General refuse should be stored in enclosed bins or compaction units separate from C&D material. Ÿ A reputable waste collector should be employed by the contractor to remove general refuse from the site, separately from C&D material. Ÿ An enclosed and covered area is preferred to reduce the occurrence of 'wind blown' light material.

Ÿ Only licensed waste haulers should be used to collect and transport any contaminated material to an appropriate disposal site and procedures should be developed to ensure that illegal disposal of waste does not occur;

Ÿ Necessary waste disposal permits should be obtained, as required, from the appropriate authorities, in accordance with the Waste Disposal Ordinance (Cap 354), Waste Disposal (Chemical Waste) (General) Regulation (Cap 35), as required;

Ÿ Records of the quantities of wastes generated and disposed of should be maintained; Adequate washing facilities should be provided on site; and

Ÿ In accordance with good construction practice, silt traps should be used to reduce the impact to drainage caused by suspended solids arising from disturbed ground, or any construction materials such as cement and gravel. Groundwater should be disposed of in accordance with the Water Pollution Control Ordinance (Cap 358).
