2. Noise

Monitoring Requirements

2.1. To ensure no adverse noise impact, noise monitoring is recommended to be carried out within 300m radius from the nearby noise sensitive receivers (NSRs), during construction phase. The NSRs selected as monitoring station are (i) NSR4 - Creative Secondary School, (ii) NSR24 - PLK Laws Foundation College, and (iii) NSR31 - School of Continuing and Professional Studies - CUHK respectively.

2.2. Construction noise level were measured in terms of the A-weighted equivalent continuous sound pressure level (LAeq). Leq 30min was used as the monitoring parameter for the time period between 0700 and 1900 on normal weekdays. Construction works would follow stipulations of the valid Construction Noise Permits if works had to be conducted during restricted hours or public holidays. Table 2.1 summarizes the monitoring parameters, frequency, and duration of the impact noise monitoring.

NSR 24	PLK Laws Foundation College	Pedestrian Road on Ground Floor	Free-field
NSR 31	School of Continuing and Professional Studies - CUHK	Roof Floor	1 m from facade

2.5. Three noise monitoring locations for impact monitoring at the nearby sensitive receivers are shown in Figure 2.1-2.3.

3. Water Quality

3.1. In accordance with the recommendations of the EIA, water quality monitoring is required during dredging for the submarine pipelines and, during operation phase. The following Section provides details of the water quality monitoring to be undertaken by the Environmental Team (ET) to verify the distance of sediment and brine plume dispersion and to identify whether the potential exists for any indirect impacts to occur to ecological sensitive receivers.

3.2. The water quality monitoring programme was be carried out to allow any deteriorating water quality to be readily detected and timely action taken to rectify the situation.

3.3. Water quality monitoring for the Contract can be divided into the following stages:

- Dredging activities during construction phase;

- Discharge of effluent from main disinfection during construction phase; and

- Operation activities during operation phase.

Water Quality Parameters

3.4. The parameters that have been selected for measurement in situ and in the laboratory are those that were either determined in the EIA to be those with the most potential to be affected by the construction works or are a standard check on water quality conditions. Parameters to be measured in the impact monitoring are listed in Table 3.1.

NOTE 1: Monitoring of Total Residual Chlorine will be conducted when cleaning and sterilization of the new freshwater main is carried out.

3.5. In addition to the water quality parameters, other relevant data were also being measured and recorded in Water Quality Monitoring Logs, including the location of the sampling stations, water depth, time, weather conditions, sea conditions, tidal stage, current direction and velocity, special phenomena and work activities undertaken around the monitoring and works area that may influence the monitoring results.

Monitoring Equipment

3.6. For water quality monitoring, the following equipment were used:

Dissolved Oxygen and Temperature Measuring Equipment - The instrument was a portable, weatherproof dissolved oxygen measuring instrument complete with cable, sensor, comprehensive operation manuals, and was operable from a DC power source. It was capable of measuring: dissolved oxygen levels in the range of 0 - 20 mg/L and 0 - 200% saturation; and a temperature of 0 - 45 degrees Celsius. It has a membrane electrode with automatic temperature compensation complete with a cable of not less than 35 m in length. Sufficient stocks of spare electrodes and cables were available for replacement where necessary (e.g. YSI model 59 DO meter, YSI 5739 probe, YSI 5795A submersible stirrer with reel and cable or an approved similar instrument).

Turbidity Measurement Equipment - The instrument was a portable, weatherproof turbidity-measuring unit complete with cable, sensor and comprehensive operation manuals. The equipment was operated from a DC power source, it has a photoelectric sensor capable of measuring turbidity between 0 - 1000 NTU and complete with a cable with at least 35 m in length (for example Hach 2100P or an approved similar instrument).

Salinity Measurement Instrument - A portable salinometer capable of measuring salinity in the range of 0 - 40 ppt was provided for measuring salinity of the water at each monitoring location.

Water Depth Gauge - A portable, battery-operated echo sounder (for example Seafarer 700 or a similar approved instrument) was used for the determination of water depth at each designated monitoring station. This unit will preferably be affixed to the bottom of the work boat if the same vessel is to be used throughout the monitoring programme. The echo sounder was suitably calibrated.

Positioning Device - A Global Positioning System (GPS) was used during monitoring to allow accurate recording of the position of the monitoring vessel before taking measurements. The Differential GPS, or equivalent instrument, was suitably calibrated at appropriate checkpoint (e.g. Quarry Bay Survey Nail) to verify that the monitoring station is at the correct position before the water quality monitoring commence.

Water Sampling Equipment - A water sampler, consisting of a PVC or glass cylinder of not less than two litres, which can be effectively sealed with cups at both ends, was used. The water sampler has a positive latching system to keep it open and prevent premature closure until released by a messenger when the sampler is at the selected water depth.

Total Residual Chlorine -Total residual chlorine (TRC) shall be measured in-situ using approved test kit.

Sampling / Testing Protocols

3.7. All in situ monitoring instruments were checked, calibrated, and certified by a laboratory accredited under HOKLAS or any other international accreditation scheme before use, and subsequently re-calibrated at monthly intervals throughout the stages of the water quality monitoring. Responses of sensors and electrodes were checked with certified standard solutions before each use.

3.8. On-site calibration of field equipment was following the “Guide to On-Site Test Methods for the Analysis of Waters”, BS 1427: 2009. Sufficient stocks of spare parts were maintained for replacements when necessary. Backup monitoring equipment was made available so that monitoring can proceed uninterrupted even when equipment is under maintenance, calibration etc.

Laboratory Measurement and Analysis

3.9. Sufficient volume of each water sample was collected for carrying out the laboratory analyses. Using chain of custody forms, collected water samples were transferred to a HOKLAS accredited laboratory (Acumen Laboratory and Testing Limit - HOKLAS 241) for immediate processing. The determination work was start within the next working day after collection of the water samples. Analytical methodology and sample preservation of other parameters were based on the latest edition of Standard Methods for the Examination of Waste and Wastewater published by APHA, AWWA and WPCF and methods by USEPA, or suitable method in accordance with requirements of HOKLAS or another internationally accredited scheme. The QA/QC details were in accordance with the requirements of HOKLAS or another internationally accredited scheme.

5. Landfill Gas Monitoring

Monitoring Requirement

5.1. In accordance with Section 11 of the EM&A Manual, monitoring of landfill gas is required for construction works within the 250m Consultation Zone. Part of the desalination plant and the indicative area of natural slope mitigation works fall within the SENT Landfill Extension Consultation Zone; and part of the 1,200 mm diameter fresh water mains along Wan Po Road falls within the SENT Landfill and SENT Landfill Extension Consultation Zones, TKO Stage II/III Restored Landfill and TKO Stage I Restored Landfill Consultation Zones.

Monitoring Programme

5.2. Since part of the desalination plant (Wan Po Road and MIC compound/Basketball Court) and the indicative area of natural slope mitigation works fall within the SENT Landfill Extension Consultation Zone in this contract (Figure 5.1), landfill gas monitoring would be required for Wan Po Road and MIC compound/Basketball Court (Figure 5.2) if excavations were conducted at more than 300mm deep. Although SENT Landfill Extension has commenced operation since November 2021, no excavation works were conducted at MIC compound/Basketball Court. Hence no landfill gas monitoring would be scheduled for MIC compound/Basketball Court at the current stage.

Monitoring Location

5.3. Monitoring of oxygen, methane, carbon dioxide and barometric pressure would be performed for excavations at 1m depth or more within the consultation Zone.

5.4. During construction of works within the consultation zones, excavations of 1m depth or more was monitored:

- At the ground surface before excavation commences;

- Immediately before any worker enters the excavation;

- At the beginning of each working day for the entire period the excavation remains open; and

- Periodically through the working day whilst workers are in the excavation.

5.5. For excavations between 300mm and 1m deep, measurements were carried out:

- Directly after the excavation has been completed; and

- Periodically whilst the excavation remains open.

5.6. The area required to be monitored for landfill gas in the reporting period is shown in Figure 5.1.

7. Ecology (Coral Monitoring)

7.1. Under the approval conditions of the EIA Report for the Project, an EM&A programme on coral for the operation phase of the Project is recommended. Pursuant to these EIA approval conditions and Condition 3.1 of the EP and FEP, details of the regular coral monitoring programme have been proposed based on the baseline coral monitoring results in the Report on Pre-Operation Baseline Coral Monitoring and Regular Coral Monitoring Methodology.

Monitoring Location

7.2. In accordance with Appendix B Section 5.1 of the approved supplementary EM&A Manual, two indirect impact sites (C2 and C3) and one control site (C8) as shown in Figure 7.1 should be monitored during the operation Phase. Pre-operation coral survey should be conducted at the indirect impact and control sites. Ten selected hard coral colonies with similar species should be tagged at each of the control and indirect impact sites before commencement of the operation phase. Tagged hard coral colonies should be monitored in open waters during the pre-operation phase and operation phase.
