It has three tributaries, namely, stream at Ha Tsuen, Shek Po Channel and Tin Sam Channel. It covers a catchment area of 16 km2, with a total stretch of 27 km in length. The major pollution sources were illegal discharges from 11 livestock farms (pig farms) and discharge from unsewered villages in the catchment.
