alternative monitoring location at Chu Kong Air-Sea Union Transportation Co.
Ltd. was approved by EPD on 5 February 2015. However, AMS7A was relocated back
to its original location (AMS7-Hong Kong SkyCity Marriott Hotel) on 30 December
2015. The relocation of air quality monitoring location, AMS7A, back to AMS7
was approved by EPD on 21 December 2015.
(3)
The ET of this Contract should conduct impact noise
monitoring at the NMS listed in the table as part of EM&A programme
according to the latest notification from ENPO when the monitoring station(s)
is/are no longer covered by another ET of the HZMB project.
