Air Quality Impact 5.1 Introduction 5.1.1 Overview 5.1.1.1 This section presents the assessment of potential air quality impacts associated with the construction and operation phases of the project, which has been conducted in accordance with the criteria and guidelines as stated in section 1 of Annex 4 and Annex 12 of the Technical Memorandum on Environmental Impact Assessment Process (EIAO-TM) as well as the requirements given in Clause 3.4.3 and Section I of Appendix A of the EIA Study Brief (ESB- 250/2012). 5.1.2 Air Quality Legislations, Standards and Guidelines 5.1.2.1 The assessment is carried out following the relevant criteria and standards as specified in the following legislation and guidelines for evaluating air quality impacts: ° Environmental Impact Assessment Ordinance (EIAO) (Cap. 499.S16), EIAO-TM, Annexes 4 and 12; ° Air Pollution Control Ordinance (APCO) (Cap. 311): ° Air Pollution Control (Construction Dust) Regulation; ° Guidance Note on the Best Practicable Means for Cement Works (Concrete Batching Plant) BPM 3/2 (93); ° Guidance Note on the Best Practicable Means for Tar and Bitumen Works (Asphaltic Concrete Plant) BPM 15 (94); and ° Guidance Note on the Best Practicable Means for Mineral Works (Stone Crushing Plants) BPM 11/1 (95). Technical Memorandum on Environmental Impact Assessment Process 5.1.2.2 The criteria and guidelines for evaluating air quality impacts are set out in Section 1 of Annex 4 and Annex 12 respectively of the EIAO-TM. Section 1 of Annex 4 stipulates the criteria for evaluating air quality impacts. This includes meeting the Air Quality Objectives (AQOs) and other standards established under the APCO, as well as meeting the hourly Total Suspended Particulate (TSP) concentration of 500 µg/m 3. Annex 12 provides the guidelines for conducting air quality assessments under the EIA process, including determination of Air Sensitive Receivers (ASRs), assessment methodology as well as impact prediction and assessment. Air Pollution Control Ordinance Air Quality Objectives 5.1.2.3 The principal legislation for the management of air quality is the APCO. It specifies AQOs which stipulate the statutory limits of air pollutants and the maximum allowable numbers of exceedance over specific periods. The AQOs are listed in Table 5.1.1. 308875/ENL/ENL/03/07/D May 2014 P:\Hong Kong\ENL\PROJECTS\308875 3rd runway\03 Deliverables\07 Final EIA Report\Ch 5 - Air Quality.doc 5-1 Expansion of Hong Kong International Airport into a Three-Runway System Environmental Impact Assessment Report Table 5.1.1 Air Quality Objectives Pollutant Averaging Time AQO concentration Allowable exceedances (µg/m³) Sulfur Dioxide (SO 2) 10 minute 500 3 24 hour 125 3 Respirable Suspended Particulates 24 hour 100 9 (PM ) 10 Annual 50 0 Fine Suspended Particulates (PM 2.5 ) 24 hour 75 9 Annual 35 0 Nitrogen Dioxide (NO 2) 1 hour 200 18 Annual 40 0 Carbon Monoxide (CO) 1 hour 30,000 0 8 hour 10,000 0 Ozone (O 3) 8 hour 160 9 Lead Annual 0.5 0 Specified Processes 5.1.2.4 Under the APCO, a number of major stationary air pollution sources are classified as Specified Processes, which are subject to stringent emission control. A licence is required for the operation of these processes under the APCO. Three of the Specified Processes, namely, Cement Works (Concrete Batching Plant), Tar and Bitumen Works (Asphaltic Concrete Plant) and Mineral Works (Stone Crushing Plants), which involve particulate matter emissions, would be relevant to this project as concrete and asphalt batching plants as well as stone crushing plant would be used during the construction phase (see Section 5.2.3 ). The relevant requirements of the three Specified Processes are described in Sections 5.1.2.9 to 5.1.2.15 . Air Pollution Control (Construction Dust) Regulation 5.1.2.5 The Air Pollution Control (Construction Dust) Regulation enacted under the APCO defines notifiable and regulatory works activities that are subject to construction dust control, as listed below: 5.1.2.6 Notifiable Works: 1.

  • Paper on Fare Adjustment of Airport Express Line Prepared By
    立法會 Legislative Council LC Paper No. CB(4)839/16-17(07) Ref. : CB4/PL/TP Panel on Transport Meeting on 21 April 2017 Background brief on fare adjustment of Airport Express Line Purpose This paper provides background information on the fare adjustment of of the Airport Express Line ("AEL"). It also summarizes the major views and concerns expressed by Legislative Council ("LegCo") Members on the subject. Background 2. AEL provides a dedicated express railway service linking the city centre with the Hong Kong International Airport ("HKIA") and the AsiaWorld-Expo ("AWE"). It commenced operation in July 1998 to tie in with the opening of the new airport, and has been extended to AWE since December 2005 to serve passengers patronizing the exhibition centre. AEL is operated by the MTR Corporation Limited ("MTRCL"). At present, there are five stations along AEL, namely, AWE Station, Airport Station, Tsing Yi Station, Kowloon Station and Hong Kong Station. Patronage 3. As the clienteles of AEL are mainly passengers travelling to and from HKIA, MTRCL advises that its patronage fluctuates and is affected by various factors such as travel season and overall economic conditions. From 2006 to 2016, the average daily patronage of AEL increased from around 26 200 to around 44 100. Having regard to the growing loading in recent years, MTRCL has enhanced train frequency of AEL from 12 minutes to 10 minutes since January 2012, with a view to providing a better travelling environment for passengers. The patronage figures for the past decade are at Appendix I. - 2 - Fares 4. According to the Operating Agreement signed between the Government and MTRCL ("OA") upon the rail merger in 2007, AEL is not a public transport mode for daily commuting, but mainly for business and travelling.

Roger Peterson Arthur and Ruth Sloan Professor of Political Science Chair, Graduate Program Committee 1 Why some airport-rail links get built and others do not: the role of institutions, equity and financing by Julia Nickel Submitted to the Department of Political Science On October 12, 2010, in partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Political Science Abstract The thesis seeks to provide an understanding of reasons for different outcomes of airport ground access projects. Five in-depth case studies (Hongkong, Tokyo-Narita, London- Heathrow, Chicago- O’Hare and Paris-Charles de Gaulle) and eight smaller case studies (Kuala Lumpur, Seoul, Shanghai-Pudong, Bangkok, Beijing, Rome- Fiumicino, Istanbul-Atatürk and Munich- Franz Josef Strauss) are conducted. The thesis builds on existing literature that compares airport-rail links by explicitly considering the influence of the institutional environment of an airport on its ground access situation and by paying special attention to recently opened dedicated airport expresses in Asia.

  • When Is the Best Time to Go to Hong Kong?
    Page 1 of 98 Chris’ Copyrights @ 2011 When Is The Best Time To Go To Hong Kong? Winter Season (December - March) is the most relaxing and comfortable time to go to Hong Kong but besides the weather, there's little else to do since the "Sale Season" occurs during Summer. There are some sales during Christmas & Chinese New Year but 90% of the clothes are for winter. Hong Kong can get very foggy during winter, as such, visit to the Peak is a hit-or-miss affair. A foggy bird's eye view of HK isn't really nice. Summer Season (May - October) is similar to Manila's weather, very hot but moving around in Hong Kong can get extra uncomfortable because of the high humidity which gives the "sticky" feeling. Hong Kong's rainy season also falls on their summer, July & August has the highest rainfall count and the typhoons also arrive in these months. The Sale / Shopping Festival is from the start of July to the start of September. If the sky is clear, the view from the Peak is great. Avoid going to Hong Kong when there are large-scale exhibitions or ongoing tournaments like the Hong Kong Sevens Rugby Tournament because hotel prices will be significantly higher. CUSTOMS & DUTY FREE ALLOWANCES & RESTRICTIONS • Currency - No restrictions • Tobacco - 19 cigarettes or 1 cigar or 25 grams of other manufactured tobacco • Liquor - 1 bottle of wine or spirits • Perfume - 60ml of perfume & 250 ml of eau de toilette • Cameras - No restrictions • Film - Reasonable for personal use • Gifts - Reasonable amount • Agricultural Items - Refer to consulate Note: • If arriving from Macau, duty-free imports for Macau residents are limited to half the above cigarette, cigar & tobacco allowance • Aircraft crew & passengers in direct transit via Hong Kong are limited to 20 cigarettes or 57 grams of pipe tobacco.

  • PRESS STATEMENT 1 September 2019 MTR Strongly Condemns The
    PRESS STATEMENT 1 September 2019 MTR Strongly Condemns the Continuous Vandalism at MTR Stations Apart from the damage of varying extents caused at multiple MTR stations which resulted in the suspension of service on five railway lines yesterday (31 August 2019), some people once again vandalised station facilities today (1 September 2019). These acts have endangered the safety of staff and passengers, as well as station and train operations. The MTR Corporation strongly condemns these acts and has reported the cases to the Police. A number of stations including Tung Chung, Tsing Yi, Lam Tin, Kwun Tong, Diamond Hill, Lok Fu, Tsuen Wan, Lai King, Sha Tin, Sha Tin Wai, Siu Hong and Tin Shui Wai stations were damaged today (as at 10:00pm). Some people damaged CCTVs, ticket issuing machines and add value machines, took away fire extinguishers and defaced stations, etc. In addition, a large group of people trespassed into the area of the Station Control Room at Tung Chung Station which threatened the safety of the station staff. The staff therefore were required to evacuate. In addition, a door at the Station Control Room of Tsing Yi Station was also damaged. Accordingly, it was necessary for the station staff to summon Police to handle the situation. The station was closed afterwards with assistance from the Police. Besides, there were people trespassing and throwing objects at a section of track near Airport Station on the Airport Express. Stones and steel bars were also thrown onto the tracks. These acts posed high risks to safe train operations. The service on the Airport Express was therefore suspended due to safety considerations.
