Remark:     (1) Dolphin-related monitoring was conducted in the reporting period. According to the EM&A Manual for HKLR, the dolphin-related monitoring was conducted during the bored piling activities (e.g. installation of permanent casting for bored piling activities) which presented in Appendix A.  The dolphin-related monitoring conducted without bored piling activities are for reference only. In addition, no monitoring was conducted in May 2013 as no underwater sockets into rock can be carried out for marine bored piles in West Lantau in May and June in accordance with EP Condition 3.1.
