LC Paper No. CB(1)648/19-20(05)
LC Paper No. CB(1)648/19-20(05) For discussion on 26 May 2020 Legislative Council Panel on Development Management of Typhoon Season Flood Risk Purpose This paper aims to brief Members on the flood risk in Hong Kong in the typhoon season1 and the corresponding management measures being taken by the Government. Flood Risk in Hong Kong 2. During the typhoon season, Hong Kong is from time to time threatened by inclement weather such as prolonged heavy rains and typhoons. The average annual rainfall is about 2 400 millimetres (mm), making Hong Kong one of the highest rainfall cities in the Pacific Rim2. Over the past five years, on yearly-average there are over 20 rainstorms which warrant the issuance of the rainstorm warning signal 3 , and six tropical cyclones, including the super typhoons Hato (2017) and Mangkhut (2018). 3. For the weather outlook this year, the Hong Kong Observatory (HKO) forecasted in March 2020 that there would be four to seven tropical cyclones coming within 500 kilometres (km) of Hong Kong this year, more or less the same as the figures of previous years. HKO expected that the annual rainfall would be normal to below normal, but the territory may still be affected by heavy rains. 1 In general, May to November of every year is the typhoon season of Hong Kong. 2 The Pacific Rim is a general term for the surrounding countries including islands in the Pacific region. 3 HKO’s rainstorm warning system is for alerting the public about the soon occurrence of heavy rain and to ensure a state of readiness for performing emergency duties any moment within the organisations and departments providing emergency services. -

Metal Contamination and Studies of Copper-Binding Proteins from Tilapia Collected from Shing Mun River \ V; Szeto Tsz Kwan Leo A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Philosophy in Biochemistry ©The Chinese University of Hong Kong August, 2005 The Chinese University of Hong Kong holds the copyright of this thesis.

I If 6 OCT 2i jlj U:JIVEnSITY jMjj ‘SYSTEM y^K/ I I Abstract Shing Mun River is a river relatively highly contaminated by heavy metals. The heavy metal contents are high at Fo Tan according to government's record. Siu Lek Yuen is another area might be contaminated by industrial discharge as well as illegal discharges into the rainstorm nullah. In order to study the heavy metals uptake of organisms in the river, Tilapia is chosen because of its abundance in the Shing Mun River and availability to residence in the region. Thirty-five (17 male, 18 female) and thirty-two (11 male, 21 female) tilapias were collected in 2001 from the two sites respectively; while twelve (7 male, 5 female) were collected from Fo Tan and sixteen control (all female) were bought from Wo Che Wet Market in 2002. Livers were removed for metal extraction and protein analysis as they were found to be of highest metal accumulation among other tissues from previous studies. The total metal concentrations of six heavy metals: Zn, Cu, Cd, Pb, Cr and Ni were detected by using Flame AAS. -
