Article by SETW on Moving Forward to Clean Seas and Clear Water
在未來10年，政府將投放約200億元在新的污水收集及處理項目上，以改善水質及保障公共衛生。政府將全數承擔有關的建築費用。為支付每年約13億元的日常營運開支，我們預計在10年內，排污費須增至每月27元，每年遞增幅度溫和，平均增幅每日不足一毫。
To enhance water quality and protect public health, the Government plans to invest about $20 billion in new sewerage and sewage treatment facilities in the next ten years. As well as the capital cost to be borne by the Government, there will be additional operating expenditure of about $1.3 billion per annum. To fund these operating costs, the average domestic sewage charge will have to rise to $27 per month in ten years' time - a modest increase each year of no more than 10 cents per day.

香港工商界在改善區域環境擔當著重要的角色。部分港資工廠積極行動，提升其環保表現。環境運輸及工務局局長於2007年4月27及28日參觀了三家位於珠三角區的港資工廠，瞭解廠方的運作和推行環保管理的工作，包括減少排污、推行清潔生產及節能等。這三家工廠的成功經驗說明通過採用良好的作業方法和管理措施、應用先進的技術，企業可以獲益於節省生產成本、改善企業形象，以及滿足市場客戶對生產商日益嚴格的環保要求。
The Hong Kong business community plays an important role in improving the regional environmental quality. Some Hong Kong-invested factories are proactively raising their environmental performance. SETW visited three Hong Kong-invested factories in the PRD on 27 and 28 April 2007 to understand their operation and environmental management efforts, including reduction of pollution emission, adoption of energy efficient and cleaner production practices. Their successful experiences show that, through adoption of good production practices and management measures, application of advanced technologies, enterprises would benefit from reduced production costs, improved corporate image, as well as satisfying the growing customer demands for high environmental performance of their suppliers.
