    - 3 - PREFACE In keeping with our policy of releasing information of general technical interest, we make available some of our internal reports in a series of publications termed the GEO Report series. The reports in this series, of which this is one, are selected from a wide range of reports produced by the staff of the Office and our consultants. A charge is made to cover the cost of printing. The Geotechnical Engineering Office also publishes guidance documents and presents the results of research work of general interest in GEO Publications. These publications and the GEO Reports may be obtained from the Government's Information Services Department. Information on how to purchase these publications is given on the last page of this report. A.W. Malone Principal Government Geotechnical Engineer November 1997 - 4 - FOREWORD This report is the first volume of a set of three reports on the phase 2 study of performance of hydraulic fill in Hong Kong. The phase 1 study has been published as GEO Report No. 40. The phase 2 study was carried out by Professor C.K. Shen, Dr K.M. Lee and Dr X.S. Li of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) as consultants to the Geotechnical Engineering Office (GEO) of the Civil Engineering Department. Professor J.K. Mitchell of the University of California at Berkeley, USA, Professor M. Jamiolkowski of the University of Turin, Italy and Dr. K. Been of Golder Associates Limited, UK assisted as sub- consultants.

    Agreement No. CE 25/2002 (DS) Hong Kong West Drainage Tunnel Drainage Improvement in Northern Hong Kong Island - Environmental Impact Assessment Hong Kong West Drainage Tunnel Final 382403/14/Issue 1 11. MARINE ECOLOGY 11.1 INTRODUCTION 11.1.1 This chapter assesses the impacts of the Project upon marine ecology. 11.1.2 The Project consists of the provision of a drainage tunnel and collecting system for northern Hong Kong Island as well as a discharge outlet at Cyber Port. The discharge outlet includes a stilling basin to release the surface runoff arising from the Hong Kong Island catchment to the Lamma Channel. 11.1.3 The objective of this assessment is to describe ecological conditions in the marine environment of the Study Area, evaluate any impacts of the Project at both construction and operational phases and, where required, to propose mitigation measures to minimize adverse impacts. The assessment follows the criteria and guidelines as stated in Annexes 8 and 16 of the EIAO TM and the EIA Study Brief No. ESB-070/2001. 11.1.4 The assessment is mainly focused on the outlet structures at the proposed Hong Kong West Drainage Tunnel and the receiving water body. The impacts from above-ground intake structures along the tunnel are covered by the chapter for terrestrial ecological assessment in this report. 11.1.5 The nature and scope of the Project are described in Section 2 of this Report. In accordance with the EIA Study Brief No. ESB-070/2001, this section identifies and assesses the marine ecological impact associated with the Designated Project described in Section 2.

  • Preliminary Numerical Study on Groundwater System at the Hong Kong International Airport
    Environmental Hydraulics and Sustainable Water Management – Lee & Lam (eds) © 2005 Taylor & Francis Group, London, ISBN 04 1536 546 5 Preliminary numerical study on groundwater system at the Hong Kong International Airport Fuli Wang Lincoln Ventures Ltd, Lincoln, Christchurch, New Zealand Jiu J. Jiao Department of Earth Sciences, University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong, China ABSTRACT: The Hong Kong International Airport was built on a man-made island. The ground- water head of the deep basal sand and gravel aquifer remains high several years after the land reclamation. The heads in different aquifers indicate an upward groundwater flow. The aim of this study is to understand the abnormally high pore water pressure in the basal aquifer. The most plausible explanation for the abnormal pressure distribution is that the groundwater flow below the airport is probably a part of the regional groundwater flow system of the Lantau Island. The airport is located at the upward discharge zone of the Lantau groundwater flow system. Based on groundwater level measurement in the airport site, a multi-aquifer model is used to simulate groundwater flow in the regional flow system. Simulation results illustrate that the high pore pres- sure in the basal aquifer can be generated by the regional flow system in the Lantau Island and the pore pressure is strongly affected by the seasonal variation in rainfall recharge and the hydraulic conductivity of the alluvial clay. 1 INTRODUCTION Large-scale land reclamation may introduce substantial changes to original geological, hydro- geological and environmental conditions. Understanding such changes is important for properly designing and maintaining engineering projects on reclaimed land.

Lam Institute for East-West Studies (LEWI) Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU) LEWI Working Paper Series is an endeavour of David C. Lam Institute for East-West Studies (LEWI), a consortium with 28 member universities, to foster dialogue among scholars in the field of East-West studies. Globalisation has multiplied and accelerated inter-cultural, inter-ethnic, and inter-religious encounters, intentionally or not. In a world where time and place are increasingly compressed and interaction between East and West grows in density, numbers, and spread, East-West studies has gained a renewed mandate. LEWI’s Working Paper Series provides a forum for the speedy and informal exchange of ideas, as scholars and academic institutions attempt to grapple with issues of an inter-cultural and global nature. Circulation of this series is free of charge. Comments should be addressed directly to authors. Abstracts of papers can be downloaded from the LEWI web page at http://www.hkbu.edu.hk/~lewi/publications.html. Manuscript Submission: Scholars in East-West studies at member universities who are interested in submitting a paper for publication should send an article manuscript, preferably in a Word file via e-mail, as well as a submission form (available online) to the Series Secretary at the address below.

  • Sustainable Financing for the Hong Kong International Airport
    Harvard Graduate School of Design December 2010 Justin Chapman Andreas Georgoulias Sustainable Financing for the Hong Kong International Airport On July 6, 1998, the momentous landing of Cathay Pacific flight 889 at Chep Lap Kok on Lantau Island signaled a new era. Not only was the occasion significant for the former British colony, in many ways the event also solidified China’s transition from the Communist Autocracy, haunted by the 1989 Tienanmen Square crackdown, into the quasi capitalist modern economic power it is today. Though their work was far from over, Airport Authority Chairman Mr. Wong Poyan, and his new Finance Director Raymond Lai could take a brief moment to celebrate a giant step forward in the life of Hong Kong’s most important development project: The construction of the new Hong Kong International Airport. 1 Figures 1 & 2.
