  • Cameron Dueck Explored Beyond the Beaten Track
    a tale of two cities CAMERON DUECK EXPLORED BEYOND THE BEATEN TRACK AROUND THE WATERS OF HIS HOMETOWN, HONG KONG Baona/Getty The old and the new: a traditional junk crosses the glassy waters of Hong Kong Harbour 52 53 ‘Hong Kong is so much more than just a glittering metropolis’ We had just dropped the anchor in a small bay, and I was standing on the deck of our Hallberg-Rassy, surveying the turquoise water and shore that rose steep and green around us. At one end of the bay stood a ramshackle cluster of old British military buildings and an abandoned pearl farm, now covered in vines that were reclaiming the land, while through the mouth of the bay I could see a few high- prowed fishing boats working the South China Sea. I felt drunk with the thrill of new discovery, even though we were in our home waters. I was surprised that I’d never seen this gem of a spot before, and it made me wonder what else I’d find. Hong Kong has been my home for nearly 15 years, during which I’ve hiked from its lush valleys to the tops of its mountain peaks and paddled miles of its rocky shoreline in a sea kayak. I pride myself in having seen Lui/EyeEm/Getty Siu Kwan many of the far-flung corners of this territory. The little-known beauty of Hong Kong’s Sai Kung district I’ve also been an active weekend sailor, crewing on racing yachts and sailing out of every local club.

  • Literature Review
    Annex 9A Ecology – Literature Review LITERATURE REVIEW INTRODUCTION A literature review was conducted to review the baseline ecological characters of the Assessment Area, identify habitat resources and species of potential conservation importance, and identify information gaps to determine whether field surveys are required to provide sufficient information for the Ecological Impact Assessment. This Annex presents the findings of this literature review. LEGISLATIVE REQUIREMENTS AND EVALUATION CRITERIA 9A.1.2.1 Marine Parks Ordinance (Cap. 476) and its Subsidiary Legislation The Marine Parks Ordinance (Cap. 476) provides for the designation, control and management of marine parks and marine reserves. It also stipulates the Director of Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation as the Country and Marine Parks Authority which is advised by the Country and Marine Parks Board. The Marine Parks and Marine Reserves Regulation was enacted in July 1996 to provide for the prohibition and control of certain activities in marine parks or marine reserves. 9A.1.2.2 Wild Animals Protection Ordinance (Cap. 170) Under the Wild Animals Protection Ordinance (Cap. 170), designated wild animals are protected from being hunted, whilst their nests and eggs are protected from destruction and removal. All birds and most mammals including all cetaceans are protected under this Ordinance, as well as certain reptiles (including all sea turtles), amphibians and invertebrates. The Second Schedule of the Ordinance that lists all the animals protected was last revised in June 1997. 9A.1.2.3 Protection of Endangered Species of Animals and Plants Ordinance (Cap. 586) The Protection of Endangered Species of Animals and Plants Ordinance (Cap. 586) was enacted to align Hong Kong’s control regime with the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES).

In early 2015, the draft Po Toi Islands Outline Zoning Plan (OZP) was 1 gazetted, however, the SSSI/CP proposal was not reflected in the draft OZP. The HKBWS, along with nine other organizations, are concerned over the lack of adequate biodiversity and geological protection available under the Town Planning Ordinance, and request for the designation of Po Toi Islands as a Country Park under the Country Parks Ordinance for the long term conservation of the area. A proposal prepared by the HKBWS describing the conservation value of Po Toi and detailed justifications for the request is attached (Attachment 1). It is a revised version of the proposal made in 2012 so as to include the latest findings. The revised proposal was also submitted to the Town Planning Board in April 2015.

  • PILOTAGE ADVISORY COMMITTEE Proposed Marine Parks At
    PAC Paper No. 3/2001 PILOTAGE ADVISORY COMMITTEE Proposed Marine Parks at Southwest Lantau and Soko Islands 1. Purpose To seek members’ view on the preliminary proposal of designating two marine parks at Southwest Lantau and Soko Islands. 2. Background 2.1 A study on the suitability of the waters around Southwest Lantau and Soko Islands was conducted by Hong Kong Institute of Education in 1998 and 1999. Results of the study show that the waters around Southwest Lantau and Soko Islands are frequented by the Chinese White Dolphins. These areas are found to be important habitats for the species. In particular, waters around Soko Islands are also home to Finless Porpoise. 2.2 In The Policy Address 2000, Chief Executive announced in October that two more marine parks would be designated in 2001-2002. The Authority plans to designate the above areas as marine parks with a view to conserving the natural environment and protecting the Chinese White Dolphins, Finless Porpoises and other species. 3. Conservation Value 3.1 The waters around South and Southwest Lantau are important habitats for the Chinese White Dolphins and have been heavily used by them (Tsang and Milicich, 1999). The area near Fan Lau, in particular, is a location where dolphins are frequently found in all seasons. 3.2 The area around Soko Islands is a unique location where both the Chinese White Dolphin and Finless Porpoise are regularly sighted (Jefferson 1998; Tsang and Milicich 1999). The two species use the site in different seasons. In winter and spring, the site is heavily used by the Finless Porpoise and their abundance in Hong Kong peaks in spring.
