1.0 Background
1.1 Project Description
One of the Government Departments of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (hereafter referred

essential associated infrastructure (hereafter referred as the Project). Proposed facilities will include the
Green Park, entertainment, retail and dining outlets, resort hotel with 100 rooms, and essential supporting
services. New roads, public transport interchange, vehicle parking areas, and associated stations will
provide direct transport links to the proposed park.
Wan Bao Construction Limited (WBC) has been awarded the Contract CV/2006/EMP-01 for Stanley
Bay’s Development Contract by Client. The construction work is scheduled to commence in Jan 2006 and
will be completed tentatively by Dec 2008. The contract include the following designated projects:
Western Storm water Drainage Channel at Stanley Bay;
• Construction and operation of drainage channel which discharges into an area, where is 800 m away
from the St. Stephen’s Beach;
Chung Hom Kok Link Road;
• Construction of the site formation for about 1.5 km of a road, which is an expressway.

1. Make reference to statutory environmental requirements and obligations;
2. Clarify responsibilities of various parties involved;
3. Address all potential significant environmental impacts;
4. Set out environmental management approach;
