Agenda Item 1: Confirmation of minutes of the 1st meeting held on 19 January 2016 2. The Committee confirmed the above minutes without amendment. Agenda Item 2: Matters for discussion (a) Stepping up cleansing work at hygiene black spots for the improvement of environmental hygiene (EHC Paper 5/16) 3. Mr Vincent CHENG introduced Paper 5/16. The Chairman added that she hoped the Food and Environmental Hygiene Department (“FEHD”) could reply in response to the proposals of the paper. 4. Mr LAI Kah-kit replied as follows: (i) During daily patrols, FEHD identified from time to time places where hygienic conditions were relatively poor. The Department would allocate more resources to handle the issues of these locations accordingly. Regarding the comments or complaints received by the public enquiry hotline 1823 or the Environmental Hygiene Office, the Department would handle them as early as possible. Besides, it would conduct in-depth investigations into hygiene-related cases as raised by Members. (ii) After the meeting, the Department would provide the regular schedule for cleansing rear lane black spots for members’ reference. However, the actual time for cleansing would be adjusted subject to the actual environmental circumstances. (iii) During the Clean Hong Kong Campaign, the Department provided two additional water jet teams to carry out deep cleansing services, and each of them was comprised of a “small trolley”, a high-pressure water jet and three workers. The Department also provided an additional street washing vehicle to strengthen the cleansing services at hygiene black spots, such as areas where restaurants were concentrated, rear lanes, etc. - 5 - Action by (iv) As illegal dumping of construction waste mostly occurred at late night and there was a considerable distance between the locations involved and the CCTV cameras, the recorded information might not be sufficient for effective prosecutions. Installation of CCTV cameras involved privacy issues and therefore, residents in the vicinity expressed reservations about this. The Department maintained an open attitude and would gather views from the public and members in this respect. (v) Currently, there were 10 public toilets in Sham Shui Po. Cleansing services of all these toilets were provided by cleansing contractors, and in each of these male and female toilets, there was a toilet attendant responsible for providing routine cleansing services. Meanwhile, the Department would arrange mobile teams to provide deep cleansing services at all public toilets on a weekly basis, and these teams would also be dispatched to public toilets with higher usage rates (such as Apliu Street and Nam Cheong Street) or to public toilets during peak periods to strengthen cleansing services. The Department would monitor the performance of the contractors in accordance with the contract requirements. If the performance of the contractors was not satisfactory, the Department would issue verbal or written warnings, or even default notices, to them and reduce the monthly payment of service charge. (vi) Apart from strengthening cleansing services, the Department would carry out enforcement actions and raid operations. The Department would conduct three raid operations at hygiene black spots on a monthly basis. Plain clothes staff would be arranged to carry out operations so as to enhance the effectiveness of law enforcement. (vii) The Department carried out publicity and education activities from time to time, for example, by organising hygiene seminars and distributing publicity leaflets and hygiene packs. The Department also proactively participated in publicity activities held by other government departments (e.g. the Home Affairs Department and the Environmental Protection Department (“EPD”)) in order to convey the message of cleaning Hong Kong and encourage the public to keep Hong Kong clean on their own initiative. (viii) The Department proactively coordinated with EPD in the latter’s Peach Blossom Tree Recycling Campaign. It set up collection points for collecting peach blossom trees at two refuse collection points in the district while EPD - 6 - Action by arranged vehicles to collect and recycle those trees into composting materials. (ix) The Department had all along invited tenders for cleansing service contracts in accordance with the procurement requirements and procedures of the Government. The principle of outcome-based approach was adopted to formulate the contract requirements and tenders were evaluated in accordance with the marking scheme approved by the Central Tender Board of the Government. The tender with the highest overall score of technical score and price score would be accepted, and the lowest tender price was not the basis of tender evaluation. According to the past tender results, about 30% to 40% of cleansing service contracts were not awarded to the tenderers offering the lowest tender prices. (x) The Department had participated in inter-departmental joint operations against the nuisance caused by second-hand electrical appliance recycling activities. It was mainly responsible for disposing articles which obstructed its street cleansing work or handling street obstruction issues arising from unlicensed hawking activities. (xi) In the past six months, FEHD and the Police had carried out 60 joint operations at the black spots of second-hand electrical appliance recycling activities. The Department displayed 240 “Notices to Remove Obstruction”, seized some articles and instituted 11 prosecutions against obstruction activities. [Post-meeting note: The Secretariat distributed FEHD’s schedule of cleansing rear lane black spots in April (EHC Paper 21/16) to all members for reference on 22 April 2016.] 5. Mr LAM Wing-yiu responded as follows: (i) Regarding the installation of CCTV cameras, the views of EPD were similar to those of FEHD. The Department and Members had explored for suitable locations in the district for the installation of CCTV cameras. However, some locations might involve privacy issues, and the effectiveness of follow-up action was subject to whether CCTV cameras were able to capture the vehicle registration marks of offending vehicles and the appearance of offenders. It was less often that offenders in the district drove and therefore, it was more difficult to trace them. Nevertheless, the Department maintained an open attitude in this respect. - 7 - Action by (ii) The Department had all along been working with FEHD in implementing the Peach Blossom Tree Recycling Campaign. (iii) The Department had a limited number of enforcement staff and it was difficult for it to increase manpower. It had requested the central authorities to increase its manpower for the Clean Hong Kong Campaign but unfortunately in vain. Therefore, the Department had to prioritise its tasks according to the gravity of issues. For example, in response to the relatively large number of household renovations during Lunar New Year, the Department would deploy manpower and resources to handle issues relating to construction waste and even take enforcement actions during holidays and in the evenings.

  • For Discussion TFWL/01/2018 on 12 July 2018
    Task Force on Water-land Interface For discussion TFWL/01/2018 on 12 July 2018 An Update on the Harbour Area Treatment Scheme PURPOSE This paper provides an update of the Harbour Area Treatment Scheme (HATS) and the improvement it brings to the water quality of Victoria Harbour. BACKGROUND 2. The HATS, formerly known as the Strategic Sewage Disposal Scheme (SSDS), is the largest sewerage infrastructure project in Hong Kong. Aimed at improving the water quality of Victoria Harbour, the Scheme comprises 16 preliminary treatment works (PTWs) across the districts around Victoria Harbour, a total of 44 km length of deep sewage conveyance tunnels, the Stonecutters Island Sewage Treatment Works (SCISTW) and a submarine outfall for the discharge of treated effluent (Figure 1). The system serves over 5.7 million population, and can handle 2.45 million cubic metres of sewage per day, equivalent to the volume of 1,000 Olympic- sized swimming pools. 3. The project was implemented in two Stages. Stage 1, which serves the Kowloon, Tseung Kwan O, Tsuen Wan, Kwai Chung, Chai Wan and Shau Kei Wan areas, was commissioned in December 2001. Stage 2A of the project was subsequently commissioned in December 2015, extending the areas served to cover northern and western Hong Kong Island. In between these, the disinfection system in the SCISTW was put into operation in March 2010. 4. Further details about the implementation of HATS are detailed in the paper ref. TFWL/03/2016 presented to the Task Force on 24 October 2016 at Annex 1. Task Force on Water-land Interface TFWL/01/2018 Figure 1 – The Harbour Area Treatment Scheme IMPROVEMENTS FROM HATS 5.

  • Recovery of Tropical Marine Benthos After a Trawl Ban Demonstrates Linkage Between Abiotic and Biotic Changes ✉ ✉ Zhi Wang 1,2,3, Kenneth M
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s42003-021-01732-y OPEN Recovery of tropical marine benthos after a trawl ban demonstrates linkage between abiotic and biotic changes ✉ ✉ Zhi Wang 1,2,3, Kenneth M. Y. Leung 4,5,7 , Yik-Hei Sung 6, David Dudgeon 4 & Jian-Wen Qiu 1,2 Bottom trawling, which is highly detrimental to seabed habitats, has been banned in some jurisdictions to mitigate the problems of habitat destruction and overfishing. However, most reports of ecosystem responses to trawling impacts originate from temperate latitudes, focusing on commercial species, and recovery of invertebrate macrobenthos from trawl ban has hardly ever been studied in the tropics. In Hong Kong (lat. 22.4°N), a history of intensive 1234567890():,; trawling with various types of gears has long degraded coastal ecosystems. To facilitate the recovery of fisheries resources and associated benthic ecosystems, the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region implemented a territory-wide trawl ban on December 31, 2012. Comparison of surveys conducted in June 2012 (before the trawl ban) and June 2015 (2.5 years after the ban) revealed higher organic contents in sediment and lower suspended-solid loads in water column, as well as a significant increase in site-based abundance, species richness, functional diversity and among-site similarity of macrobenthos after the trawl ban. Our results suggest that the imposition of a trawl ban can be an effective measure for biodiversity conservation in tropical coastal waters. 1 Department of Biology, Hong Kong Baptist University, Kowloon Tong, Kowloon, Hong Kong, China. 2 Southern Marine Science and Engineering Guangdong Laboratory (Guangzhou), Guangzhou, China.

  • 10. HONG KONG's STRATEGIC IMPORTANCE UNDER CHINESE SOVEREIGNTY Tai Ming Cheung Hong Kong Has Come a Long Way Since It Was
    - 170 - 10. HONG KONG’S STRATEGIC IMPORTANCE UNDER CHINESE SOVEREIGNTY Tai Ming Cheung Hong Kong has come a long way since it was dismissed as a barren rock a century and a half ago. This bastion of freewheeling capitalism today is a leading international financial, trading and communications center serving one of the world’s fastest growing economic regions. But Hong Kong is also entering a period of considerable change and uncertainty following its reversion to Chinese sovereignty that is likely to have a far- reaching impact on its strategic importance and role over the coming years. As a British colony, Hong Kong was an important outpost for the West to keep an eye on China and safeguard busy sea-lanes. Under Chinese rule, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (SAR) will play a crucial role in boosting China’s economic growth and promoting Beijing’s long-term goal of reunification with Taiwan. How China handles Hong Kong’s return will have major consequences for the territory as well as for China’s relations with the international community. The world will be watching very carefully whether Beijing will adhere to its international commitments of allowing the SAR to retain a high degree of autonomy. The U.S. has said that the transition will be a key issue in determining its future relations with China. This paper will examine the strategic implications of Hong Kong's return to Chinese rule. Several key issues will be explored: • Hong Kong's past and present strategic significance. • The stationing of the People's Liberation Army (PLA) in Hong Kong.
