4.1.1
In
accordance with the Updated EM&A Manual, 1-hr and 24-hr total suspended
particulate (TSP) levels at the designated air quality monitoring station are required. Impact 24-hour TSP monitoring should be
carried out for at least once every 6 days. For the 1-hr TSP impact monitoring, the
sampling frequency of at least three times in every 6 days should be undertaken
when the highest dust impact occurs.
4.2.1
The
1hr- TSP and 24-hr TSP air quality monitoring were performed using a High
Volume Sampler (HVS), of which its location and operation satisfy, as far as
practicable, all the requirements as specified in the Updated EM&A Manual. The brand and model of the equipment are
given in Table 4.1.

The
HVS and its accessories were maintained in good working condition, such as
replacing motor brushes routinely and checking electrical wiring to ensure a
continuous power supply.
4.2.3
Calibration
of the HVS (five point calibration) using Calibration Kit was carried out every
two months. The HVS calibration
orifice will be calibrated annually.
4.2.4
The electricity supply of HVS at
AM1(SR77) was suspended from 16 May 2019 and was no longer available. In order
to have a more secure electricity supply, an alternative Handheld TSP meter was proposed to
use for the temporary monitoring of
24-hr & 1hr air quality from 22 May 2019. In this regard, IEC and ER have
no adverse comment on it. And Calibration certificates of the Handheld TSP
meter are provided in Appendix C.
4.3.1
Air
quality monitoring was conducted at the location specified in the Updated
EM&A Manual. Table 4.2 describes the details of the air

4.5.1
With
the consideration of criteria stated in the Updated EM&A Manual, the HVS
was installed in the vicinity of the air sensitive receivers.
4.5.2
The
relevant data including temperature, pressure, weather conditions, elapsed-time
meter reading for the start and stop of the sampler, identification and weight
of the filter paper, and any special phenomena observed were recorded. The weather information was referenced
from Hong Kong Observatory (http://www.weather.gov.hk/wxinfo/pastwx/extractc.htm).
4.5.3
A
HOKLAS accredited laboratory with constant temperature and humidity control,
and equipped with necessary measuring and conditioning instruments, to handle
the 24-hr TSP samples, was employed for sample analysis.
4.5.4
Filter
papers of size 8"x10" were labelled before sampling. They were inspected to be clean with no
pin holes and conditioned in a humidity controlled chamber for over 24-hr and
were pre-weighed before use for the sampling.
4.5.5
The
24-hr TSP levels were measured by following the standard high volume sampling
method for TSP as set out in the Title 40 of the United States Code of Federal
Regulations, Chapter 1 (Part 50), Appendix B. TSP was sampled by drawing air through a
conditioned, pre-weighted filter paper inside the HVS at a controlled air flow
rate. After 24-hr sampling, the
filter papers loaded with dust were kept in a clean and tightly sealed plastic
bag, and then returned to the laboratory for reconditioning in the humidity
controlled chamber followed by accurate weighing by an electronic balance with
a readout down to 0.1 mg.
4.5.6
All
the collected samples were kept in a good condition for 6 months before
disposal.
4.5.7
For
1-hr TSP monitoring, monitoring methodology is the same as 24-hr TSP monitoring
which has been presented in Section 4.5.1 to Section 4.5.6, but with sampling period changed
to 1 hour.
4.6.1
As
informed by the contractor, all major construction activities of the Entrusted Portion
Project of Section 1A and 1B were substantially completed on 28 September 2018
and 3 October 2018 respectively. In such regard, the EM&A Programme of the
captioned project, including monthly EM&A reporting and the corresponding
environmental monitoring and audit works, is no longer required and we proposed
to cease it by the end of December 2018 and we have submitted the termination
proposal to EPD on 24 December 2018. And EPD are replied the EM&A
monitoring shall only be terminated when insignificant environmental impacts of
the remaining outstanding construction works are expected and agreement of EPD.
After that we have submitted the termination proposal to EPD on 4 April 2019
again. EPD replied we need to provide the Final EM&A Report to facilitate
their consideration for the termination on 14 May 2019. Therefore, the EM&A
monitoring and audit works will be ceased upon EPD¡¦s approval for the termination
proposal is approved. The tentative
schedule for environmental monitoring for the reporting month is provided in Appendix
D.

weighting and the measurement time were set as follows:
¡P
Frequency weighting: A
¡P
Time weighting: Fast
¡P
Parameters: Leq, L10 and L90
¡P
Time measurement: Leq(30-minutes) during
non-restricted hours i.e. 07:00 ¡V 19:00 hrs on normal weekdays
¡P
Prior to and after each noise measurement, the meter
was calibrated using the acoustic calibrator for 94dB(A) at 1000 Hz. If the difference in the calibration
level before and after measurement was more than 1dB(A), the measurement would
be considered invalid and repeat of noise measurement would be required after
re-calibration or repair of the equipment.
¡P
At the end of the monitoring period, the Leq, L10
and L90 were recorded. In addition,
site conditions and noise sources were recorded on a standard record sheet.
