18. No project related exceedance was recorded in March, April and May reporting month at RTN2a-Hong Kong Electric Centre during this reporting quarter.
19. No limit level exceedance was recorded in March reporting month and no project related exceedance was recorded in the April and May reporting month at RTN3-Yu Lee Mo Fan Memorial School during this reporting quarter.
20. No limit level exceedances were recorded in March reporting month and no project related exceedance was recorded in April and May reporting month at RTN4-Causeway Bay Community Centre during this reporting quarter.

Air Quality Monitoring

21. Due to extension of site boundary by contractor of HY/2009/19, location of air monitoring station CMA1b – Oil Street Community Liaison Centre has been finely adjusted on 21 April 2012.

No action level and no limit level exceedances were recorded in this reporting quarter.

Complaints, Notifications of Summons and Successful Prosecutions

23. One environmental complaints under FEP-05/364/2009/B were received in the reporting quarter.

24. A public complaint regarding construction noise impact referred by EPD was received by ET on 11 March 2014 (Ref: H04/RS/0004232-14 dated11 March 2014) under FEP-05/364/2009/B. The complainant reported that excessive noise (from the operation of compressors, other heavy machinery and concrete breaking) was emanated from the construction site near IFC in daytime on 27 Feb 2014.
    
    
25. ET confirmed with the Resident Site Staff that the major construction activities at the concerned location conducted on 27 Feb 2014 (Daytime) include backfilling works between north wall and sheet piles and for roof slab, Site hoarding removal; Formwork erection and removal works, false work erection; Concrete breaking works at roof slab and base slab and breaking up of existing tunnel corner; Concreting works for profile barrier inside cut and cover tunnel; and rebar fixing works and WVB basement remediation works. Mitigation measures implemented by the Contractor for the above construction works include the use of quiet plants (air compressor with a Noise Emission Label of 99 dB(A)).
    
    
26. According to relevant site records, major noise emanating construction activities conducted around the concerned location on 27 Feb 2014 include concrete breaking works at roof slab and base slab and breaking up of existing tunnel corner and concreting works. Based on information verified by the RSS, noise mitigation measure including utilization of quiet air compressor with noise emission label of 99 dB(A) was implemented by the Contractor on the 27 February 2014 to minimize the potential noise impact.
    
    
27. Having reviewed the monitoring data of the monitoring stations in the vicinity of the construction site near IFC, namely noise monitoring stations M7e and M7w, no limit level exceedances were recorded on 24 Feb 2014 and 4 March 2014 and the major concrete breaking works at the concerned location conducted on 27 February 2014 was continued across the above monitoring period. In addition, no particular observations regarding noise impact were recorded during weekly site inspection conducted on 27 Feb 2014. No non-conformity was identified. As such, the construction activities under Contract HY/2009/18 were considered generally in compliance with the statutory requirement.

Nevertheless, in view of the concern regarding noise nuisance raised by public, it is considered desirable for the Contractor to review and strengthen the noise mitigation measures around the concerned location.

28. Follow-up inspection was conducted during weekly environmental inspection on 13 March 2014, additional noise mitigation measure including erection of noise blanket for concrete breaking works were implemented by the Contractor to further minimize the noise nuisance to nearby public.

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. Design and Construction of Central – Wan Chai Bypass and Island Eastern Corridor Link under the Project involves the construction and operation of a trunk road and its road tunnel more than 800m in length between portals that is shown at Figure 2.1.

2.2.2. The study area encompasses existing developments from Central to North Point. The scope of the Central-Wanchai Bypass (CWB) and Island Eastern Corridor Link (IECL) includes:

· A dual three-lane trunk road, approximately 4.5 km in length, and tunnel approximately 3.7 km in length defined from the connection with the existing Rumsey Street Flyover in Central, through to a connection with the existing Island Eastern Corridor to the east of the Causeway Bay Typhoon Shelter (CBTS);

· The Central Interchange near the Rumsey Street Flyover to provide road connections to the Central area;

· Tunnel control buildings and ventilation buildings;

· Slip roads to connect the CWB to the local road system in the Wan Chai North and Causeway Bay area;

· Associated road lighting, road signing, traffic control and surveillance system; and

· Other associated works.

2.2.3. 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.

Table 2.1 Schedule 2 Designated Projects under this Project

Item	Designated Project	EIAO Reference	Reason for inclusion
DP1	Central-Wanchai Bypass (CWB) including its road tunnel and slip roads	Schedule 2, Part I, A.1 and A.7	Trunk road and road tunnel more than 800 m in length
DP2	Road P2 and other roads which are classified as primary/district distributor roads	Schedule 2, Part I, A.1	Primary / district distributor roads
DP3	Reclamation works including associated dredging works	Schedule 2, Part I, C.1 and C.12	Reclamation more than 5 ha in size and a dredging operation less than 100 m from a seawater intake point
DP5	Wan Chai East Sewage Outfall	Schedule 2, Part I, F.5 and F.6	Submarine sewage pipelines with a total diameter more than 1,200 mm and include a submarine sewage outfall
DP6	Dredging for the Cross-harbour Water Mains from Wan Chai to Tsim Sha Tsui	Schedule 2, Part I, C.12	A dredging operation less than 100 m from a seawater intake point

2.3 Division of the Project Responsibility

2.3.1. Due to the multi-contract nature of the Project, there are a number of contracts sub-dividing the whole works area into different work areas to be commenced. Contractors of individual contracts will be required by the EP holder to apply Further Environmental Permits such that the impact monitoring stations are sub-divided accordingly to facilitate the implementation of EM&A programme and to streamline the EM&A reporting for individual FEP holders correspondingly.

2.3.2. In the reporting period, all the contracts were commenced and contract no. 04/HY/2006 had been completed. The details of individual contracts are summarized in Table2.2.
