EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The construction works for the Proposed 132kV Cable Circuit Connecting
with Ting Lai Road Substation and Pak Shek Kok Substation commenced on 3
November 2010. This is the Twenty-second Monthly Site Audit Report
presenting the EM&A works carried out during the period from 1 August to
31 August 2012.

Summary of construction works undertaken during reporting period

The major construction works undertaken during the reporting month include
backfilling and reinstatement.

Environmental Monitoring and Implementation Status of Environmental


Protection Requirements

Monitoring for air, noise, water quality, waste management and cultural
heritage is not required. The Contractor has implemented the mitigation
measures recommended in the PP and environmental requirements stated in
the EP, where applicable.

Environmental Site Auditing

The monthly joint environmental site audit was carried out by the
representatives of the Contractors and Independent Checker. Details of the
audit findings are presented in Section 5.

Environmental Non-compliance

No non-compliance event was recorded during the reporting period.

No environmental complaint and summons was received in this reporting


period.

Future Key Issues

This is the last month’s environmental site inspection and there is no


construction works in the next month. No potential environmental issues are
anticipated since operation of the project is considered to have insignificant
environmental impacts.

2 PROJECT INFORMATION

2.1 BACKGROUND

A new 132kV cable circuit connecting Ting Lai Road Substation and Pak Shek
Kok Substation will be established in order to meet the increasing electricity
demand and to strengthen the electricity capacity in the Tai Po and Pak Shek
Kok areas. The proposed 132kV cable circuit will be installed in eleven
sections (S1 – S11) along the existing footpaths, cycle tracks and carriageways
running alongside Tolo Highway (see Annex A for project location). The total
alignment length is approximately 5km.

The whole alignment will be laid by trenching method (and will make use of
existing ducts if available) except for the two no-dig cable duct crossings at
Lam Tsuen River Channel and underneath the Tai Po Kau outlet within the
Conservation Area. Construction activities will involve:

• Site preparation and clearance

• Road surface breaking (where applicable) and excavation

• Cable duct/cable installation

• No-dig pit construction and pipe jacking

• Backfilling and reinstatement

The potential environmental impacts of the Project have been presented in the
PP “The Proposed 132kV Cable Circuit Connecting with Ting Lai Road Substation
and Pak Shek Kok Substation” (Register No. PP-417/2010), and an
Environmental Permit (EP-398/2010) (EP) for the Project was granted on 21
September 2010. Under the requirements of Condition 2.2 of the EP, the
implementation of all mitigation measures recommended in the PP shall be
audited by an independent checker.

The construction works of the Project commenced on 3 November 2010 (1) and
were scheduled to be completed by mid 2012. An updated construction
programme is shown in Annex B.

2.2 CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES

A summary of the major construction activities undertaken during this


reporting period is shown in Table 2.1.

(1) It should be noted that the commencement date refers to all sections except Section 8 within the Conservation Area.
Construction works within the Conservation Area commenced since January 2011.
