Waste Management Implications. The Consultants shall follow the criteria and guidelines for evaluating and assessing waste management implications as stated in Annexes 7 and 15 of the TM respectively. The study of waste management impacts shall cover the following:
Waste Management Implications. The demonstration advanced treatment plant and the associated facilities will be installed above ground. Some excavation is expected for the installation of the temporary reclaimed water distribution pipelines. However, as most of the pipeline is expected to be constructed above ground, the volume of excavated material generated would be minimal.
Waste Management Implications. Excavation will be required for the construction of the proposed effluent reuse system. The volume of excavated material generated from the construction of the effluent reuse system would be about 1,300 m3 (excluding excavated material for emergency storage tank which has been taken into account in the EIA report for Ngong Ping STP). Construction waste used in formwork and temporary works will also be generated.
Waste Management Implications. The volume of additional excavated material generated from the effluent reuse scheme would be about 1,300 m3. About 213 m3 of this excavated spoil could be reused on-site and the remaining surplus of 1,088 m3 will be transported to the Public Fill Stockpiling Area at Mui Wo for reuse in suitable public filling areas or land formation projects. The mitigation measures proposed in Section 6.5 of the Ngong Ping STP and Sewerage EIA report will be adopted for the effluent reuse scheme. No adverse waste impact is anticipated with proper mitigation measures in place. Clauses will be incorporated into the contract documents requiring the contractors to comply with the Waste Control Ordinance and its subsidiary regulations as well as the relevant measures recommended in the Ngong Ping STP and Sewerage EIA.
Waste Management Implications. 3.9.1 The dredged volume for the WCR Phase 1 reclamation was estimated to be approximately 20,000 m3. With the implementation of the recommended mitigation measures and management procedures in accordance with the requirements of ETWB TCW No. 34/2002, no residual impact was predicted.
3.9.2 Other waste types generated by the construction activities are likely to include construction and demolition (C&D) material (from foundation, excavation and tunnelling works), general refuse from the workforce and chemical wastes from the maintenance of construction plant and equipment. Provided that these identified waste arisings are to be handled, transported and disposed of using approved methods and that the recommended good site practices are to be strictly followed, adverse environmental impacts would not be expected. During the operation phase, domestic waste would be generated by the planned residential use at the new development areas at PSK, TCS and TKL. Domestic waste generated in the development areas would be directed to the SENT Landfill.
Waste Management Implications. 16.6.1 Wastes generated during the construction stage of the development would generally include construction and demolition (C&D) material, chemical waste, and workforce waste. With the implementation of practicable waste management measures, the associated impacts are not considered to be an insurmountable environmental constraints.
16.6.2 Waste generated during the operational stage is mainly municipal solid waste. It is estimated that the total waste (i.e domestic and C&I waste) generated from SEKD would increase from 95 tpd in year 2005 to 434 tpd in year 2018. Together with the municipal solid waste generated from the existing catchment of KBTS, the capacity of the existing KBTS would be exceeded in year 2006. Based on the future waste arising estimated in this study, a new RTS with capacity in the range of 3000 to 3700 tpd and with marine access is proposed in Area 6C of SEKD to serve the SEKD and the existing catchment of KBTS. The proposed RTS site is located at more than 300m from existing and planned residential uses. With the implementation of practicable mitigation measures adopted in other newly built RTSs in the territory, adverse environmental impact associated with the operation of the proposed RTS is not expected. The proposed RTS is a Designated Project under Schedule 2 Part I:G.2 of the EIAO, a detailed EIA should be carried out by the future project proponent and approved under the EIAO to confirm that there will be no insurmountable environmental impacts associated with the construction and operation of the RTS.
16.6.3 There is no major difficulty on technical grounds, as evidenced by the application of the Automated Refuse Collection System to 2 public housing estates in the pilot scheme. The use of ARCS for combined sites will have institutional and financial issues to be resolved, though not insurmountable. South East Kowloon Development, being a newly developed area, will provide better opportunity of applying the ARCS than in other developed and congested areas. As such, an institutional framework should be formulated to target for a wider application. A further study, based on the initial findings of this report, is recommended to allow the implementation to follow.
Waste Management Implications. (a) The Consultants shall follow the technical requirements of assessing waste management implications in Para.
Waste Management Implications. 4.6.1.1 The contractor will formulate waste management measures on waste minimization, storage, handling and disposal in a Waste Management Plan as part of Environmental Management Plan in accordance with the Environment, Transport and Works Bureau Technical Circular (Works) No. 19/2005. Weekly site audit should be carried out to check the implementation status of the recommended waste management measures throughout construction period.
4.6.1.2 During the operational phase of the Project, with proper implementation of the proposed mitigation measures, adverse waste impact arising from the Project is not expected. No monitoring or audit is required.
Waste Management Implications. 11.3.1 Wastes generated by the decommissioning works are likely to include C&D material from demolition of the remaining structures within the Project boundary, general refuse from the workforce and chemical waste from the maintenance of construction plant and equipment and from the soil remediation process. Provided that these identified waste arisings are handled, transported and disposed of using approved methods and that the recommended good site practices are strictly followed, adverse environmental impacts would not be expected during the decommissioning works and from the soil remediation process of the Project.
Waste Management Implications. The Contractor should comply with the Waste Disposal (Chemical Waste) (General) Regulation, the Waste Disposal Ordinance and its subsidiary regulations. The Contractor should not permit any sewage, waste water or effluent containing sand, cement, silt or any other suspended or dissolved material to flow from site onto any adjoining land or allow any waste matter which is not part of the final product from waste processing plants to be deposited anywhere within any site or onto any adjoining land. The construction waste generated by the Contractor on-site would be transported to the designated disposal facilities managed by EPD or CEDD. Monitoring of the Contractor’s compliance with the requirements of the trip ticket system would be carried out to ensure that the waste actually reaches the intended disposal facility and the correct procedures are being followed at all times.
