At the invitation of the Chairman, and with the aid of a powerpoint presentation, Chief Engineer/Port Works, Civil Engineering and Development Department ("CEDD") briefed the Panel on the scope of the proposed planning and engineering study for Lung Kwu Tan reclamation and the re-planning of Tuen Mun West Area ("the P&E Study"), the estimated costs of which and the associated site investigation works would be about $179.0 million in money-of-the-day prices. Subject to the funding approval of the Finance Committee ("FC"), the Administration planned to commence the P&E Study in the latter half of 2020 for completion in 30 months. (Post-meeting note: A soft copy of the powerpoint presentation materials was circulated to members vide LC Paper No. CB(1)348/19-20(01) by email on 20 January 2020.) 4. The Chairman reminded members that in accordance with Rule 83A of the Rules of Procedure of the Legislative Council ("LegCo"), they should disclose the nature of any direct or indirect pecuniary interests relating to the subjects under discussion at the meeting before they spoke on the subjects. Impact of the proposed reclamation and development on the local community 5. Mr Kenneth LAU declared that he was the Indigenous Inhabitant Representative of Lung Kwu Tan Village and owned land there. Mr LAU relayed the concerns of the villagers of Lung Kwu Tan Village over the impact of the proposed Lung Kwu Tan reclamation and developments on the shoreline, the environment and air quality in the area. The villagers also worried that the proposed reclamation and the intended future use of the reclaimed land as industrial sites would aggravate the long existed traffic congestion along Lung Kwu Tan Road, a single-lane dual carriageway frequented by heavy trucks shuttling to the power stations, landfills and other industrial facilities at Lung Kwu Tan and its adjoining areas. Mr LAU was disappointed that the Administration had not yet taken forward the plan to build a tunnel to Hong Po Road to ease the traffic congestion along Lung Kwu Tan Road, and expressed that he and the villagers would not support the proposed developments at Lung Kwu Tan in the absence of appropriate measures Action - 7 - to address the pollution, traffic congestion and other problems including seawater infusion, blocked drains, etc. 6. SDEV advised that the Administration had well noted the villagers' concerns, and would foster the community environment and the living quality of the local residents by means of urban design in order to minimize the impact brought about by the future land use, including brownfield operations. The Administration would also optimize the design of the reclamation area in the P&E Study to preserve the existing natural shoreline as far as possible. It was expected that a green-channel of about 100 metres ("m") in width would be provided so that part of the existing shoreline would be preserved. Further, to cope with the proposed reclamation development and to enhance the connectivity of Lung Kwu Tan and River Trade Terminal ("RTT") and its coastal areas ("the Tuen Mun West area"), the Administration proposed upgrading Lung Mun Road and constructing a new road within the reclaimed land as an alternative to Lung Kwu Tan Road. After construction of the new road, the distance between the road traffic and Lung Kwu Tan Village could be increased to about 400 m to 500 m. Besides, the Administration would upgrade Nim Wan Road and Deep Bay Road to improve the connectivity between Lung Kwu Tan Village and Lau Fau Shan. 7. Mr Kenneth LAU enquired about the details of the re-planning of the Tuen Mun West area for residential developments of about 20 000 units, and how the strategic transport networks being planned would enhance the connectivity of Tuen Mun with the urban areas and the future developments under the Lantau Tomorrow Vision.

    CB(1)1429/08-09(01) Hon Cheung Hok-ming, SBS, JP Chairman Panel on Transport Legislative Council Legislative Council Building 8 Jackson Road, Central Hong Kong Dear Mr. Cheung, Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge (‘HZMB’) and public opposition to the Hong Kong Link Road (‘HKLR’) route The purpose of this letter is to urgently bring to the attention of the Panel on Transport the extent of public opposition to the proposed route of the HKLR of the HZMB after the bridge ‘lands’ in Hong Kong territory. Tung Chung Sustainable Development and other local organisations working to promote sustainable development have voiced concerns to the Highways Department regarding the impact of the proposed HKLR route and made counter proposals for a viable alternative. We request the Legislative Council Panel on Transport to urgently review the counter proposal and take account of the public opposition to the road route proposed by the Highways Department. Details of the negative impact of the HD / Arup proposed route for the HKLR for the HZMB are in the attached documents. Most importantly, the proposed route will have a huge negative impact on the health of local residents because of the proximity of vehicle emissions from a major highway. As management professionals we favour sustainable development and do not appose the construction of the HZMB, but we do object to the proposed route. We urge you to table the details of the no pollution solution to the Panel on Transport during your meeting on Friday 24th April. Yours sincerely, (Martin Purbrick) for Tung Chung Sustainable Development Alliance c.c.

  • 1. INTRODUCTION Background to the Study 1.1 a Doppler VHF Omni
    1. INTRODUCTION Background To The Study 1.1 A Doppler VHF Omni-directional Range and Distance Measuring Equipment (DVOR/DME) Station is being operated on Lung Kwu Chau to provide bearing and distance information to the approaching/departing aircrafts to and from the Chek Lap Kok Airport. The existing jetty at Lung Kwu Chau, which is ruined and abandoned for use, is too small and of too shallow water depth to accommodate the Civil Aviation Department’s (CAD) vessels for transporting equipment and personnel for servicing and maintaining the DVOR/DME. Currently, the transportation has to rely on helicopters, which is however prohibited during night times and adverse weather conditions. In order that emergency repair work can be undertaken during such periods, CAD has proposed to construct a proper jetty for berthing of marine vessels. The construction work will be implemented under the project, namely “Construction of Lung Kwu Chau Jetty” (hereinafter referred to as “ the Project”). 1.2 Maunsell Consultants Asia Ltd have been commissioned by the Civil Engineering Department (CED) of the Hong Kong SAR Government to undertake the EIA Study of the Project. In accordance with the EIA Study Brief, an initial assessment of the environmental impacts arising from the Project was firstly undertaken to identify those environmental issues of key concern during the construction and operation phases of the Project that require further more detailed assessment. The findings of the initial assessment were presented in the Final Initial Assessment Report (IAR) submitted on 16 May 2001. A detailed assessment of all the key issues identified in the IAR has followed after the consultation exercise with the Lung Kwu Tan villagers, relevant government departments and the Marine Parks Committee, and confirmation of the preferred jetty location.

    Agreement No. CE 55/2000 EIA Study For Construction of Lung Kwu Chau Jetty Civil Engineering Department Final EIA Report 2 PROJECT DESCRIPTION Location and Scale of Project 2.1 The proposed site of the Project is located on the eastern coast of Lung Kwu Chau as shown in Figure 2.1. Lung Kwu Chau is situated within the gazetted Sha Chau and Lung Kwu Chau Marine Park. Due to the remoteness of the site, the island is uninhabited with no infrastructure other than the existing jetty and the Doppler VHF Omni-directional Range and Distance Measuring Equipment (DVOR/DME) Station. The location of the existing jetty is also shown on Figure 2.1. 2.2 The scope of this project comprises the construction of a precast concrete blockwork jetty and a concrete catwalk, dredging of an approach channel, installation of miscellaneous facilities and demolition of the existing jetty. 2.3 A jetty was constructed at nearby Sha Chau to serve the radar station set up by CAD on the island for the new airport at Chek Lap Kok. To date it appears that no environmental concerns have been raised in connection with the operation of this radar station and the assoc iated jetty, which is also located within the Sha Chau and Lung Kwu Chau Marine Park. The structural form of the Sha Chau jetty is similar to that proposed under the preliminary design of the jetty at Lung Kwu Chau, although the jetty at Sha Chau is larger in size. A jetty has also been provided at Siu Mo To to serve the DVOR/DME station located there.
