Page 16 of 31
4.2 IDENTIFICATION OF SIGNIFICANT ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS
Before the commencement of this Project, Environmental Officer, with the inputs from Project
Director / Project Manager, will be responsible to identify the environmental aspects of the
activities that it can control or, over which it can be expected to have an influence.
Environmental Officer also determines which environmental aspects have or can have a
significant impact on the environment. The criteria include (but not limit to) previous project
experience, professional and management judgment, advises from environmental team,
employees, consultants, client’s representative, or professional bodies.
For these significant impacts, possible control and/or mitigation measures will be put in place
to manage or improve the impact to an acceptable level. The identification results and
mitigation measures are presented in Annex 4 & Annex 5 of this EMP.

4.3 ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS & MITIGATION PLAN

For this Project, the main environmental aspects and possible impacts come from the
installation works. The majority of the installation works on this project will be carefully
planned in the order stage to minimize the potential environmental impact. A summary of the
identified environmental impacts and relevant mitigation measures is shown below.

Air Pollution Control

For this Project, no environmental license requirement applies. The majority of the works is
simple installation works, thus no significant air polluting work is involved. However, small
amounts of suspended particles, dust and debris are emitted and Tsit Fung’s conducts the
following control measures to minimize the impact to air quality:
 Maintaining a high standard of housekeeping on site.
 All vehicle engines are required to be turned off when they are not in use.
 Damping all dusty materials on proper waste bins before leave the working site.
 Inspecting vehicles regularly to ensure that exhaust emissions are not causing nuisance,
such as dark smoke emission
 All motorized vehicles on site are restricted to a maximum speed of 8km per hour.
 All haulage and delivery vehicles are restricted to designated roadways inside the site.
 Only unleaded fuel or ultra low sulphur diesel is allowed to use for motorized vehicles.
 All ozone depleting substances are not allowed to use in the execution of the Project.
 All asbestos materials are not allowed to use in the execution of the Project.

Water Pollution Control

Tsit Fung will minimize the generation of wastewater from the Site through the following
means:
 Prevent the surface from washing across the Site and spilling over to areas outside of the
Site, which should include the layout plan for collection of wastewater, the provision

Page 17 of 31
 for its treatment before discharge and the method of disposal of sewage effluent from
the Site;

Noise Control
No significant noise-generated mechanical equipment is used in this project, because the
majority of the works are installation, testing and commissioning. Acoustic control required for
all used machinery is complying with the Noise Control Ordinance (Cap 400). No noise permit
for “Powered Mechanical Equipment” is required in this project.

Page 18 of 31
Planning
TSIT FUNG has considered the following areas during the planning stage, in order to reduce
noise problem:
 The installation work will be carried out in the CLIENT’S’ designated areas and any
generated noise will be contained within that area.
 No noisy activity is carried out beyond the restricted hours.
 Avoiding simultaneous operation of several noisy activities close to a noise sensitive
receiver to reduce the cumulative impacts.

4.3.1.1 Precaution & Control Measures

Following measures were conducted to minimize noise arising during work:
 Switching off or throttling down any idle equipment, especially for Powered Mechanical
Equipment.
 Regular maintaining all equipment, especially for Powered Mechanical Equipment, to
avoid noise from abnormal operation.
 Starting up vehicles and equipment sequentially rather than all together.
 For site staffs, ear muffs are strictly required to wear when working under noisy
environment or using Powered Mechanical Equipment.

Waste Management
A waste management scheme is developed for achieving waste avoidance, reduction,
treatment and disposal measures for SHSI. It has divided three types of waste

4.3.1.2 Inert Construction and Demolition (C&D) Waste

Wastes suitable for filling material derived from the following uncontaminated product groups:
clay brick, concrete, mortar, asphalt waste and trimmings, and cement products. These
materials should be transferred to public filling areas. Materials like concrete and asphalt can
also be recovered for construction re-use.

4.3.1.3 Non-inert C&D Waste

Non-inert C&D waste comprises of bamboo, timber, vegetation, packaging waste and other
organic materials. In contrast to public fill, non-inert waste is not suitable for land reclamation
and subject to recovery of reusable / recyclable items, is disposed of at landfills.

Page 19 of 31
4.3.1.4 Municipal Solid Waste
Mixed wastes arising from catering activities, office activities and general domestic waste
which may include (without limitation) putrescibles such as oil, grease, discarded food; food
containers, paper, cardboard, timber, plastics and metal packaging; and other domestic waste
products.

The following sections outline the measures taken.

4.3.1.5 Planning for Waste Reduction

TSIT FUNGhas planned ahead before the project commencement, in order to reduce the
amount of waste generated. Following measures are considered:
 Purchasing environmental friendly materials that can be re-used or recycled.
 Coordinating with clients, suppliers and sub-contractors to minimize over-ordering and use
biodegradable plastic packaging materials, and then wastage of materials.
 Checking consistency of drawings and specifications to avoid unnecessary re-work.
 Implementing an effective materials control system to minimize material loss and ensuring
the efficient use of materials.
 If possible, using alternative materials and practices which generated less amount of
wastes.
 Providing training to all staffs for adopting recycling and re-use practices of materials.

4.3.1.6 Waste Handling

All wastes generated are divided into four categories for disposal at landfills or public filling
areas, which have different handling methods:

4.3.1.6.1 Excavated Materials

No excavated material may be generated by this installation, test and commissioning works.

Page 20 of 31
4.3.1.6.2 Construction & Demolition (C&D) Wastes
Small amounts of C&D wastes are generated during the installation, testing and
commissioning activities. The C&D materials will be included
 Scrap metal/plastic materials from demolition of existing systems/structures/equipment
 Wood crates/drums, plastics, plastics foam, paper, and rubber from packaging waste
for new systems/instruments/equipment
 Unusable/surplus materials from the installation works and
 Site clearance
For the temporary storage of C&D material, it will be preferably at the immediate working area.
The sorted and processed C&D materials shall be promptly removed from site to minimize
temporary stockpiling and to optimize the use of sorting areas. All C&D wastes shall be sorted
into inert portion (e.g. rock, brick and concrete, etc) as public fill and non-inert portion (e.g.
wood, paper, materials) as landfill wastes. The C&D wastes are required to dispose at the
location in the following table
Types of Waste Location
Inert C&D Waste (Public Fills) Public Filling Area Tuen Mun Area 38
Non-inert C&D Waste  WENT Landfill
 NENT Landfill
 SENT Landfill

4.3.1.6.3 Chemical Waste

TSIT FUNG will apply the license to be the Chemical Waste Producer if there is possible
chemical wastes generated by this project. It may include: spent lube oil, spent solvent, spent
lubricating/mineral oil, spent grease, paint residues. All chemical wastes will be temporary
disposed in the chemical waste container and TSIT FUNG will employ licensed chemical
waste collectors to collect the chemical waste.

4.3.1.6.4 General Refuse

Only solid waste is identified for this Project. Following handling measures are carried out:
 Purchasing materials with minimized packaging and encouraged suppliers to reuse or
recycle the original packaging materials.
 Storing and disposing all general refuse in waste skips and garbage bins with proper
covers.
 Ensuring a reputable waste collector to remove general refuse.

Page 21 of 31
Dangerous Goods Control
Dangerous good (as defined by Dangerous Goods (General) Regulation) used in the project
will be stored in the DG store. Tsit Fung will apply for the Dangerous good Storage License.

Chemical Management
For this project, Chemical will be used. It includes: Paints, Spent lubricating/mineral oil.

If it is confirmed that these chemical are sued, following handling measures are required to
apply, if applicable:
 Appropriate "Materials Safety Data Sheet" is prepared and kept.
 Properly labeling, packaging and temporarily storing all chemical in a designated chemical
storage area if applicable.
 Developing and implementing a contingency scheme for handling potential chemical
spillage or accidents in the chemical storage area.
 Storing all chemicals in tanks with a minimum capacity of 110% of chemical storage bins
or tanks.
 The chemical storage area is sheltering from rain water.
 Only authorized staff is allowed to access and use the chemicals.
 Prior to using the chemicals, briefing is arranged to personnel involved for the discussion
on potential hazard and information highlighted in the "Materials Safety Data Sheet".
 Keeping the inventory records for the chemical.

The chemical waste should only be disposed by the licensed chemical waste collector and
transferred to designated and licensed reception point for further treatment.

Energy Conservation
Several measures are taken to reduce the use of energy, most of which involved simple and
effective practices that require minimal time and effort.
 Switching off lighting and electrical equipment when not is use.
 Proper scheduling and monitoring the works to avoid rework or defects.

Ecology
Care is taken before commencement of any work inside a site boundary that there is no threat
to the ecology.
 Prohibit any dumping of rubbish, food, oil or chemicals outside the side boundary.
 Prohibit any accessing or working on restricted areas.

Page 22 of 31
Material Resources Management
TSIT FUNG uses environmental criteria in selecting suppliers and subcontractors for the
materials and services provided. By all means, TSIT FUNG will procure only from sustainable
resources in order to reducing environmental impacts associated with use of materials and
services.
All project activities are designed to optimise the use of materials so as to minimize waste and
scrap. All purchasers of materials shall consider minimizing waste through careful estimation
of quantities required and careful consideration of any environmental impacts created for
materials and services purchased. Also, a clear understanding and control of material
restrictions is necessary.

Consumption and Waste Disposal Figures

The consumption figures on electricity and fuel, and waste disposal figures will be minimized.

General Housekeeping
Site staff will conduct daily site inspections to determine that the requirements of this
Environmental Management Plan are met. Site staff will further check against the site
cleanliness as well as following general housekeeping measures:
 Common areas will be maintained in clean and sanitary conditions at all times.
 All site areas are kept free from liter and rubbish.
 All passageways, staircases, corridors and means of escape routes will always be kept
clear.
 Oily and greasy rages will be stored in metal bins and handled and disposed of as
chemical waste.
 Tools will not be left unattended on the site areas that could potentially cause an accident.
 All lighting and ventilation facilities will be kept clean and unobstructed at all times.
 The floor of work places will be kept in a non-slippery condition.

IMS Section will conduct drill exercises for ensuring the effective implementation of above
emergency procedures. After each drill exercises, the effectiveness will be reviewed. If
necessary, modification to existing emergency procedure will be followed.
Chemical storage, labeling, transportation and spillage plan should be followed as per
guidance given in the Code of Practice of Chemical Waste if appropriate.
Project Manager shall investigate the case and report the details to CLIENT’S’s representative
immediately after occurrence of case. If there is any warning or environmental prosecution
issued by Authorities, Project Manager will immediately notify CLIENT’S’s representative.

5.3 DOCUMENTATION
Tsit Fung’s will maintain records to document the main elements of the EMP. The location of
these documents will be determined by the Project Manager and kept in the project offices so
that any employee can easily access and retrieve information as required. The Environmental
Management System of this Project consist the following documentation structure:
 Environmental legislation (ordinances, technical memoranda, codes of practice and
guidelines) for reference purposes
 Environmental Management Plan
 Environmental Mitigation Implementation Schedule
 Records of permits and licenses
 Records of complaints
 Equipment maintenance / calibration records
 Internal and external audit reports
 Operating procedures and work instructions
 Meeting records
 Records of training and briefing
In addition, communications, correspondence and reporting records between Tsit Fung’s and
external parties will be registered. These documents include:
 communications between the CLIENT’S, Tsit Fung’s and Sub-contractors;
 correspondence with the governmental departments, when related to environmental
matters;
 communications with the Tsit Fung’s Environmental Team;
 Minutes of environmental management site meetings.

5.4 DOCUMENT CONTROL
TSIT FUNG recognizes that maintaining updated documents and records is a critical part of its
environmental management system. In order to ensure that document control is maintained,
the ISO 9001 quality management system method of registering and controlling documents
and their revisions will be used.
The Tsit Fung’s document control system will, therefore, ensure that documents (such as the
EMP, regulations etc.) are:
 located easily;
 identifiable, dated (with reference to current and previous revisions) and maintained safely;
 periodically reviewed and approved for adequacy;
 updated and available to relevant parties;
 the retention period for all records are 7 years after project completion or as specified by
CLIENT’S; and
 Retained for any legal or auditing related purposes, if obsolete, but identified as such.

5.5 ENVIRONMENTAL INSPECTION/PERFORMAANCE MONITORING
In order to establish an environmental monitoring programme. Tsit Fung’s will ensure that the
monitoring programme is a comprehensive but straightforward activity. The most important
step will be to establish and maintain documented procedures for the monitoring of the key
characteristics of Tsit Fung’s operations that may have a significant impact on the
environment. The environmental checklist is attached in Annex 2 and 3 and will be used to
assist in the monitoring.

Environmental Supervisor will conduct daily site environmental inspections based on a

checklist.(Annex 2)
Environmental Officer, the Contractor’s Agent, and client’s Engineer will conduct the weekly
environmental walk to check the environmental performance of the Site is satisfactory and in
compliance with the requirements under the Contract and EMP. A comprehensive checklist for
use in weekly environmental walk is attached in Annex 3.

5.6 COMPLAINTS, NON-CONFORMANCE & CORRECTIVE / PREVENTIVE

ACTION
For all complaints and non-conformances regarding the Environment Management System,
Tsit Fung’s will correct the problems and attempt to prevent their recurrence. The problem will
not only be identified, but the cause will be examined in order to understand why it occurred
and how it can be prevented.
Procedures will be prepared as part of the Environmental Management Plan which will:
 define the responsibility for handling and investigating non-conformance (in most cases it
will be the staff member responsible for the action plan);
 evaluate and mitigate the resulting impact(s) on the environment; initiate and complete
corrective and preventive action (restore compliance as quickly as possible); and
implement and record changes to documented procedures that result from corrective and
preventive action. The Project Manager in co-operation may also carry out cause analysis
with the employee responsible for the area of operations. This will detail the incident, loss,
immediate cause, basic cause and lack of control. This analysis can be used in auditing to
help assess the effectiveness of corrective and, more importantly, preventive measures.
 Inform the Engineer about all complaints and non-conformances and agree with the
Engineer on the mitigation measures.

5.7 PROGRAMME FOR UPDATING ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN

TSIT FUNG will review the EMP after each internal environmental audit. TSIT FUNG will
follow these recommendations made from the initial in order to honour their commitment to
continual improvement.
The Project Manager will review the EMP to ensure the plan remains suitable, adequate and
effective. A comprehensive evaluation will be conducted involving all environmental aspects,

Page 27 of 31
environmental auditing undertaken, and all relevant information. The review will also be
documented.
The review will take into consideration: any changing circumstances (processes, legislation,
and input from interested parties, updated pollution control, upgraded prevention equipment
and environmental incidents) and a commitment to continuous improvement.
The results of the review will be used in the planning and implementation of improvements to
the EMP or the environmental policy statement and, therefore, changes throughout the EMP
itself. The CLIENT’S will be notified and seek approval of any changes made to the EMP.

Page 28 of 31
5.8 CONTROL OF SUBCONTRACTOR
TSIT FUNGuses environmental criteria and commitment in selecting subcontractors. All
subcontractors are encouraged for the environmentally sound work practices and avoid those
that are damaged to the environment.
During the project execution, subcontractor shall:
 Follow all responsibilities set out in the subcontractor agreement and this EMP.
 Comply with legislative and Tsit Fung’s environmental requirements and site regulations.
 Identify and report any environmental problems on site.
 Ensure all their employee complies with environmental requirements.
The performance of subcontractor on environmental management is checked through different
channels such as: site checking by Site Foreman, feedback or complaints raised by
CLIENT’S’s representatives, internal environmental audit by or CLIENT’S, annual re-
assessment, etc.
If any noncompliance found for subcontractor’s works on environmental management, Project
Manager investigates with subcontractor, and develops the corrective and preventive action
required, as well as report non-compliance, and the effectiveness of corrective and preventive
actions to CLIENT’S’s representatives as soon as possible.

5.9 SITE INPSECTION

To ensure all site works comply with requirements of environmental management, Project
Manager / Environmental Officer shall check the environmental elements during the routine
site inspection. If there is any non-compliance found, Project Manager / Environmental Officer
shall inform Project Manager for determining the corrective and preventive action. Records of
the site inspection should be made after site inspection. Besides, a monthly inspection record
is required to complete by Project staff / Environmental Officer or delegated. The copy of
Monthly Environmental Inspection Checklist is shown in Annex 3.
