First question. Assistance Provided for Fishermen Affected by Marine Works 1. MR STEVEN HO (in Cantonese): President, in recent years, marine works have commenced one after another in Hong Kong. Following the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge (Hong Kong Section) (HK-ZMB) project that is underway, other marine works will be launched soon. Some fishermen have relayed to me that the marine works in recent years have resulted in a shrinkage of fishing grounds and affected their livelihood. They have also pointed out that the Government's current package of ex-gratia allowance (EGA) has not fully reflected the fishermen's losses arising from a permanent or temporary loss of fishing grounds as a result of marine works. In addition, upon the completion of some marine works, the Government has set up restricted areas near the worksites (such as the Hong Kong International Airport) to which vessel entry is prohibited, but has not compensated the fishermen in this regard. Quite a number of fishermen have pointed out that the incessant launching of marine works by the Government has rendered the fisheries industry unable to have sustainable development, and breached the pledge of the Chief Executive in his election manifesto to promote the development of the agricultural and fisheries industry. In this connection, will the Government inform this Council: (a) whether it conducted in the past five years comprehensive or localized surveys on the fisheries resources in Hong Kong waters (in particular the waters to the west of the New Territories) to compile statistics on the area of Hong Kong waters (away from fairways) that is actually available for fishing each year and on the fisheries resources in various stretches of waters, and to assess the impacts of the marine works to be launched in the next five years on the ecological environment of fishing grounds, and so on; if it did, of the details; if not, the reasons for that, and whether it will collect such data and information as soon as possible; (b) whether it has any measure to increase fisheries resources, such as placing more artificial reefs in the sea, restocking, and adjusting the proposed policy on marine reserve, and so on, so as to protect 2796 LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL ─ 20 November 2013 fishermen's livelihood and promote the sustainable development of the fisheries industry; if it has, of the details; if not, the reasons for that; and (c) given that the restricted areas set up by the authorities in some waters have led to a shrinkage of fishing grounds, whether the authorities will review the scope of compensation covered by the existing EGA package and make compensation to the affected fishermen; if they will, of the details; if not, the reasons for that? SECRETARY FOR FOOD AND HEALTH (in Cantonese): President, my reply to Mr Steve HO's question is as follows: (a) The Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department (AFCD) conducts surveys on fisheries resources in Hong Kong waters since 2010 to monitor the fisheries resources in Hong Kong waters and evaluate the effectiveness of the trawl ban. Introduced in late 2012, the trawl ban will change the baseline conditions of the existing marine and fisheries resources in Hong Kong. The AFCD considers it necessary to capture data over a longer period of time for meaningful analysis and study. As regards fishing grounds in Hong Kong, according to the data released by the Survey and Mapping Office of the Lands Department in 2012, the total sea area of Hong Kong is 1 650.60 sq km. Fishing is prohibited in areas such as principal fairways, public bathing beaches and typhoon shelters, covering about 34 sq km. The remaining stretches of waters are available for fishing according to the relevant law. Marine works that are being developed or under planning include dredging and reclamation to the south western coast of Shek Kwu Chau for the Integrated Waste Management Facilities Phase I, a third runway at the airport, and the Tung Chung New Town Development Extension.

  • 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.
