  • Jockey Club Age-Friendly City Project Action Plan for Tai Po District
    Jockey Club Age-friendly City Project Action Plan for Tai Po District CUHK Jockey Club Institute of Ageing October 2016 1. Background By 2041, one third of the overall population in Hong Kong will be the older people, which amount to 2.6 million. The demographic change will lead to new or expanded services, programs and infrastructure to accommodate the needs of older people. Creating an age-friendly community will benefit people of all ages. Making cities age-friendly is one of the most effective policy approaches for responding to demographic ageing. In order to proactively tackle the challenges of the rapidly ageing population, The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust is implementing the Jockey Club Age- friendly City (“JCAFC”) Project in partnership with four gerontology research institutes in Hong Kong. The project aims to build momentum in districts to develop an age-friendly community, recommend a framework for districts to undertake continual improvement, as well as arouse public awareness and encourage community participation. Eight districts have been piloted. The CUHK Jockey Club Institute of Ageing is responsible for Sha Tin and Tai Po District. 2. Profile of Tai Po District Tai Po is located in the northeast part of the New Territories. Topographically, Tai Po is encircled on three sides by the mountain. The valley areas and basins become the major grounds for human settlements. Tai Po is one of the new towns in Hong Kong since 1979. Historically, Tai Po is a market town famous for trading of agricultural and fishing products. The old market was located at the coastal plains where Tai Po River and Lam Tsuen River cross.

  • Drainage Improvement Works in Tai Po
    CB(1)1619/06-07(02) For information Legislative Council Panel on Planning, Lands and Works 109CD – Drainage improvement works in Tai Po PURPOSE This paper briefs Members on the Administration’s proposal to part-upgrade 109CD entitled “Drainage improvement works in Tai Po” to Category A, at an estimated cost of about $426 million in money-of-the-day (MOD) prices, for drainage improvement works in Upper Lam Tsuen River, She Shan River, Upper Tai Po River, Ping Long and Kwun Hang in Tai Po. PROPOSAL 2. The scope of the part of 109CD which we propose to upgrade to Category A comprises construction of – (a) about 2.6 kilometres (km) drainage channel of width ranging from 18 to 29 metres (m) in Upper Lam Tsuen River; (b) about 1.1 km drainage channel of width ranging from 8.5 to 21.5 m in She Shan River; (c) about 0.7 km drainage channel of width ranging from 13 to 20 m in Upper Tai Po River; (d) about 25 m long twin-cell box culvert with internal cell dimensions of 1 350 millimetres (mm) high by 2 500 mm wide at Ping Long, and about 18 m long single-cell box culvert with internal cell dimensions of 2 150 mm high by 3 000 mm wide at Kwun Hang; and (e) ancillary road works. We plan to commence construction in September 2007 for completion in end 2011. A site plan and typical sections showing the proposed works are at Enclosure 1. 2 JUSTIFICATION 3. Owing to inadequate drainage capacity, the areas in the vicinity of the existing Upper Lam Tsuen River, She Shan River, Upper Tai Po River, and at Ping Long and Kwun Hang, are susceptible to flooding during heavy rainstorms.

    Metal Contamination and Studies of Copper-Binding Proteins from Tilapia Collected from Shing Mun River \ V； Szeto Tsz Kwan Leo A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Philosophy in Biochemistry ©The Chinese University of Hong Kong August, 2005 The Chinese University of Hong Kong holds the copyright of this thesis. Any person(s) intending to use a part or whole of the materials in the thesis in a proposed publication must seek copyright release from the Dean of the Graduate School. I If 6 OCT 2i jlj U:JIVEnSITY jMjj ‘SYSTEM y^K/ I I Abstract Shing Mun River is a river relatively highly contaminated by heavy metals. The heavy metal contents are high at Fo Tan according to government's record. Siu Lek Yuen is another area might be contaminated by industrial discharge as well as illegal discharges into the rainstorm nullah. In order to study the heavy metals uptake of organisms in the river, Tilapia is chosen because of its abundance in the Shing Mun River and availability to residence in the region. Thirty-five (17 male, 18 female) and thirty-two (11 male, 21 female) tilapias were collected in 2001 from the two sites respectively; while twelve (7 male, 5 female) were collected from Fo Tan and sixteen control (all female) were bought from Wo Che Wet Market in 2002. Livers were removed for metal extraction and protein analysis as they were found to be of highest metal accumulation among other tissues from previous studies. The total metal concentrations of six heavy metals: Zn, Cu, Cd, Pb, Cr and Ni were detected by using Flame AAS.

The river originates from the northern slopes of Tai Mo Shan (大帽山) at a height of 740m above sea level. Its main stream flows north through the famous Ng Tung Chai waterfalls (梧桐寨瀑布群), and Chai Kek (寨乪), and turns northeast after passing Lam Kam Road (林錦公路). The river meanders past Ma Po Mei (麻布尾), San Tong (新塘), Fong Ma Po (放馬莆), and Chuen Pei Lung (川背龍), turning 90 degrees to head southeast when it reaches Wai Tau Tsuen (圍頭村). It continues flowing to Shui Wai (水圍) via Mui Shue Hang (梅樹坑), converges with Tai Po River at Tai Po New Town, and finally enters Tolo Harbour (吐露港) by Kwong Fuk Estate (廣福邨).

  • The Empty Forest
    MAY 2002 NUMBER 25 Porcupine! Newsletter of the Department of Ecology & Biodiversity, The University of Hong Kong The empty forest In Hong Kong’s climate, forest is the natural vegetation everywhere. It can be suppressed by regular cutting or burning, but the harvesting of biomass for fuel ended decades ago and fires, although still common, are less often started and more rapidly controlled near urban areas than next to rural villages. An increase in the area of forest is therefore an inevitable, if paradoxical, consequence of the increasing urbanisation of the New Territories. Hong Kong Island, where the last grassland is disappearing under a tidal wave of shrubs and trees, illustrates the future for the whole territory. Within fifty years, forest will cover most of Hong Kong. Good news for native biodiversity, surely? Well…yes… partly. It is true that many of our most diverse inland sites are in forest, but these are areas that have had continuous tree cover for centuries, as a result of inaccessibility or the protection of feng shui. The much larger areas of young secondary forest are a lot less diverse. Even at the best sites, the diversity is in the plants and invertebrates – organisms that can persist in the tiniest of forest patches. Vertebrates do not survive in such situations so Hong Kong has lost most species that require forest. The new forests are therefore empty in comparison with the larger, older forest areas in Guangdong, and even more so if compared with what must have been here a thousand years ago. There are no reliable records for Hong Kong from before the nineteenth century, when the vertebrate fauna was already impoverished.
