  • Chapter 5 Provision of Aquatic Recreational and Sports Facilities
    Chapter 5 Provision of aquatic recreational and sports facilities Audit conducted a review to examine the provision and management of aquatic recreational and sports facilities by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD) and to ascertain whether there were areas for improvement. Gazetted beaches 2. According to paragraph 2.4(a) of the Audit Report, a consultant, who carried out a coastal safety audit on the beaches of Hong Kong in 2000, had advised that the Rocky Bay Beach should be deleted from the list of gazetted beaches because of safety reason and low usage. However, the LCSD considered that de-gazetting beaches was a sensitive issue and decided not to take further action. The Committee asked about the sensitivity of the de-gazetting and whether the LCSD would de-gazette the beach. 3. In response, Ms Anissa WONG Sean-yee, Director of Leisure and Cultural Services, said that: - in deciding to close the Rocky Bay Beach because of its poor water quality, the Administration had considered whether the beach should be de-gazetted. At that time, the Administration was of the view that it should consider the development of the beach water quality. It was also concerned that the relevant District Council and beach goers might consider that they might need to observe the development of the issue for a period of time; and - taking into account the current situation of the water quality, the usage of the beach, as well as other factors, such as the usage rate of the Shek O Beach, the LCSD agreed in principle to Audit’s recommendation that the Rocky Bay Beach be de-gazetted.

  • Measures to Improve the Water Quality of Tsuen Wan Beaches
    Our Mission : To safeguard the health and welfare of the community and meet conservation goals by working to achieve and maintain the Water Quality Objective for bathing beaches At the beach: Fun and exercise for all ages 1 Introduction The objective of the Beach Water Quality Monitoring Programme is to monitor beach water quality and protect the health of the bathers. The background and details of EPD’s monitoring activities can be found on the website. Blue sky, bright sunlight and clean water at Lower Cheung Sha Beach This report summarises the beach monitoring data collected in 2008, and the gradings of the beaches and their compliance with the Water Quality Objective (WQO). In 2008, the EPD monitored 41 gazetted beaches and three non-gazetted beaches located in different parts of the territory. The monitoring frequency was at least three times a month during the bathing season from March to October. During monitoring, the EPD staff made field observations, took measurements such as water temperature and dissolved oxygen, and collected samples for further laboratory tests for the faecal bacteria E. coli and other water quality parameters (pH, salinity and turbidity). Hong Kong’s beaches are assessed using a dual system: annual ranking and weekly grading based on the E. coli level in beach water, which indicates potential health risks associated with swimming. The annual ranking reflects the overall water quality of the beach in the bathing season, while the weekly grading denotes the recent water 2 quality of the beach. Under the dual rating system, beaches are categorised into “Good”, “Fair”, “Poor” and “Very Poor”, and those ranked “Good” and “Fair” meet the WQO for bathing waters.
