2. Project Background

2.1 Background

2.1.1. “Wan Chai Development phase II and Central-Wan Chai Bypass” and “Central-Wan Chai Bypass and Island Eastern Corridor Link” (hereafter called “the Project”) are Designed Project (DP) under the Environmental Impact Assessment Ordinance (Cap. 499) (EIAO). The Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Reports for Central-Wan Chai Bypass and Island Eastern Corridor Link (Register No. AEIAR-041/2001) and Wan Chai Development phase II and Central-Wan Chai Bypass (Register No.: AEIAR-125/2008) have been approved on 31 August 2001 and 11 December 2008 respectively.

2.1.2. The key purpose of Wan Chai Development Phase II (WDII) is to provide land at Wan Chai North and North Point for construction of the Central-Wan Chai Bypass and Island Eastern Corridor Link (CWB). Land formed under the project will be developed as a world-class waterfront promenade joining that at the new Central waterfront for public enjoyment.

2.1.3. There is a compelling and present need for the CWB to provide relief to the very congested east-west Connaught Road Central/Harcourt Road / Gloucester Road Corridor (the Corridor) which is currently operating beyond its capacity. The CWB will provide relief to the existing congestion along the Corridor and cater for the anticipated growth of traffic on Hong Kong Island. Without the CWB and its access roads, there will not be sufficient capacity to serve the heavy traffic demands at both strategic and local levels.

2.2 Scope of the Project and Site Description

2.2.1. The Project is located mainly in Wan Chai North, Causeway Bay and North Point, and is demarcated by Gloucester Road and Victoria Park Road to the south, Fenwick Pier Street to the west and Tong Shui Road Interchange to the east, as shown in Figure 2.1.

2.2.2. The study area encompasses existing developments along the Wan Chai, Causeway Bay and North Point shorelines. Major land uses include the Hong Kong Convention & Exhibition Centre (HKCEC) Extension, the Wan Chai Ferry Pier, the ex-Wan Chai Public Cargo Working Area (ex-PCWA), the Royal Hong Kong Yacht Club (RHKYC), the Police Officers’ Club, the Causeway Bay Typhoon Shelter (CBTS) and commercial and residential developments.

2.2.3. The scope of the Project comprises:

· Land formation for key transport infrastructure and facilities, including the Trunk Road (i.e. CWB) and the associated slip roads for connection to the Trunk Road and for through traffic from Central to Wan Chai and Causeway Bay. The land formed for the above transport infrastructure will provide opportunities for the development of an attractive waterfront promenade for the enjoyment of the public

· Reprovisioning / protection of the existing facilities and structures affected by the land formation works mentioned above

· Extension, modification, reprovisioning or protection of existing storm water drainage outfalls, sewerage outfalls and watermains affected by the revised land use and land formation works mentioned above

· Upgrading of hinterland storm water drainage system and sewerage system, which would be rendered insufficient by the land formation works mentioned above

· Provision of the ground level roads, flyovers, footbridges, necessary transport facilities and the associated utility services

· Construction of the new waterfront promenade, landscape works and the associated utility services

· The Trunk Road (i.e. CWB) within the study area and the associated slip roads for connection to the Trunk Road.

2.2.4. The project also contains various Schedule 2 DPs that, under the EIAO, require Environmental Permits (EPs) to be granted by the DEP before they may be either constructed or operated. Table 2.1 summarises the five individual DPs under this Project. Figure 2.1 shows the locations of these Schedule 2 DPs.

9. Complaints, Notification of Summons and Prosecution

9.0.1. There were three environmental complaints received on 8, 10 and 26 August 2011 in the reporting month.

9.0.2. To follow-up the noise complaint via 1823 (ICC no.1-304615409) by Ms. Chiu on 27 July 2011 in last reporting month, she complained on the construction noise generated from the construction operations of Central-Wanchai Bypass in the morning at 7am rather than at noon. RSS confirmed to start the rock breaking activities at 8m as a mitigation measure to minimize the noise nuisance in the vicinity of the residents. Further investigation revealed that no construction noise exceedance was recorded at noise monitoring station of Victoria Centre on 25 July, 4 and 10 August 2011 during daytime period while breaking and excavation works were undertaken during monitoring. However, complainant did not satisfy with the response on the noise nuisance from the rock-breaking during morning in front of Victoria Centre and then further complained via 1823 on 8 August 2011. Highways contacted the complainant on 15 August 2011 that the noisy rock breaking operation had been completed. No further complaint from complainant was received after the liaison. In conclusion, it was related to the construction works under Contract HY/2009/15 and mitigation measure was provided.

9.0.3. An ICC complaint no. 1 – 306740207 was received on 10 August 2011. The complainant, Mr. Yip complained that muddy water was discharged from work site to the seafront near Oil Street during heavy rain. According to the Hong Kong Observatory, there was amber rainstorm on August 2011. Confirmed with RE, muddy water was caused by a heap of earth being washed to the sea by heavy rain. The heap of earth was referred as a small stockpile placed close to the seafront in front of Oil Street within the site area under handover transition period from contract HY/2009/11 to contract HY/2009/19. The necessary mitigation measures to protect the small stockpile against rainfall were missing at the time of complaint. The stockpile at the seafront near Oil Street had been removed. The cause of the complaint is still under investigation between ET and RSS of CWB. To avoid any further environmental deficiency, Contractors shall ensure all necessary environmental mitigation measures will not be missing during site area handover.

9.0.4. A noise complaint was raised by Grand Hyatt and a complainant via 1823 on 26 August 2011 regarding construction noise and vibration nuisance generated from the works at Convention Avenue and inside the HKCEC1 reclamation area. Confirmed with the Resident Site Staff, the construction works were referred to the Contractor HK/2009/01 and the excavator mounted breaker at Convention Avenue and drilling rig at HKCEC1 reclamation area were the dominant construction noise source during this period. The drilling rig at HKCEC1 reclamation area and excavator mounted breaker at Convention Avenue were then temporary suspended after received the complaint.

9.0.5. Investigation revealed that the erected noise barriers (4m cantilevered movable noise barrier for the drilling rig and 1m movable noise barrier for the excavator mounted breaker) were not located close to the plants to provide adequate noise screening. Contractor was advised to avoid concurrent operation of construction plants at site. Further enhancement of movable noise barriers at HKCEC1 and providing noise enclosure for the excavator mounted breaker at Convention Avenue are needed. Further investigation and checking on 31 August and 7 September 2011 revealed that the implemented noise mitigation measures were in proper and minimize the noise impact.

9.0.6. To follow-up the noise complaint via 1823 (ICC no. 1-304013959) by Ms. Yau, the resident at Victoria Centre on 23 July 2011 in last reporting month, she complained that noise impact was generated from the operations at the reclamation area of Causeway Bay Typhoon Shelter at 7am while most of the residents at Victoria Centre were sleeping. RSS confirmed to start the rock breaking activities at 8m as a mitigation measure to minimize the noise nuisance in the vicinity of the residents. Further investigation revealed that no construction noise exceedance was recorded at noise monitoring station of Victoria Centre on 25 July and 4 August 2011 during daytime period while breaking and excavation works were undertaken during monitoring. In conclusion, it was related to the construction works under Contract HY/2009/15 and mitigation measure was provided. No further complaint from complainant was received after proposed the mitigation measure.

9.0.7. The details of cumulative complaint log and updated summary of complaints are presented in Appendix 9.1.
