Notes:

1. The dust and noise monitoring station proposed in the EM&A Manual (i.e. Ko Fai House, Kwun Fai Court with ID: M-A6/ M-N6) was not available for impact dust and noise monitoring, therefore impact monitoring was conducted at M-A3/M-N3 as an alternative which was agreed by the ER, IEC and EPD;

2. The coordinates of SKH Tsoi Kung Po Secondary School can be represented as follow:

Latitude: 22.314719, Longitude: 114.180694 (HK80 Geographical Coordinates)

2.1

2.2 Construction Dust Monitoring

Monitoring Requirement

2.2.1 In accordance with the approved EM&A Manual, 1-hour and 24-hour Total Suspended Particulates (TSP) levels should be measured at the designated air quality monitoring stations to indicate the impacts of construction dust on air quality. Regular Impact 24-hour TSP monitoring should be carried out for at least once every 6 days, and 1-hour TSP monitoring should be done at least 3 times every 6 days when the highest dust impact occurs.

Monitoring Equipment

2.2.2 24-hour TSP air quality monitoring was performed using High Volume Sampler (HVS) deployed at the designated monitoring station. The HVS shall meet all the requirements of the EM&A Manual.

2.2.3 A portable direct reading dust meter was used to carry out the 1-hour TSP monitoring.

2.2.4 The model of the dust monitoring equipment used is summarized in Table 2.2.

2.2.1

2.2.2

2.2.3

2.2.4

2.2.5 The following guidelines were adopted during the installation of HVS:

· Sufficient support is provided to secure the samplers against gusty wind.

· No two samplers are placed less than 2 meters apart.

· The distance between the sampler and an obstacle, such as buildings, is at least twice the height that the obstacle protrudes above the sampler.

· A minimum of 2 meters of separation from walls, parapets and penthouses is required for rooftop samples.

· A minimum of 2 meters separation from any supporting structure, measured horizontally is required.

· No furnaces or incineration flues are nearby.

· Airflow around the samplers is unrestricted.

· The samplers are more than 20 meters from the drip line.

· Any wire fence and gate, to protect the sampler, should not cause any obstruction during monitoring.

· Permission must be obtained to set up the samplers and to obtain access to the monitoring stations.

· A secured supply of electricity is needed to operate the samplers.

2.2.6 Prior to the commencement of the dust sampling, the flow rate of the high volume sampler shall be properly set. The power supply should be checked to ensure the proper functioning of the sampler. The sampler is recommended to be operated for 5 minutes to establish thermal equilibrium before placing any filter media at the designated air monitoring station.

2.2.7 The filter holding frame should be removed by loosening the four nuts and placing carefully a weighted and conditioned filter at the centre with the stamped number upwards on a supporting screen.

2.2.8 The filter should be aligned on the screen so that the gasket formed an airtight seal on the outer edges of the filter. The filter holding frame should be tightened to the filter holder with swing bolts. The applied pressure should be sufficient to avoid air leakage at the edges.

2.2.9 A programmed timer should be used to control the duration of operation. Information should be recorded on the record sheet, which included the starting time, the weather condition and the filter number.

2.2.10 After sampling process is finished, the filter should be removed and sent to the laboratory for weighting. The elapsed time should also be recorded.

2.2.11 All filters should be equilibrated in a conditioning environment for 24 hours before weighting. The conditioning environment temperature should be between 25°C and 30°C and not vary by more than ±3°C; the relative humidity (RH) should be <50% and not vary by more than ±5%. A convenient working RH is 40%.

Maintenance and Calibration for HVS

2.2.12 The high volume motors and their accessories should be properly maintained, including routine motor brushes replacement and electrical wiring checking, to ensure that the equipment and a continuous power supply were in good working condition.

2.2.13 Initial calibration of dust monitoring equipment shall be conducted upon installation and thereafter at fortnightly intervals. The transfer standard shall be traceable to the internationally recognized primary standard and be calibrated annually. The calibration certificate for the HVS is provided in Appendix C.

Maintenance and Calibration for Direct Reading Dust Meter

2.2.15 ET shall submit sufficient information to the IEC to prove that the instrument is capable of achieving comparable results to the HVS. The instrument should also be calibrated regularly, and the 1-hour sampling shall be determined periodically by the HVS to check the validity and accuracy of the results measured by direct reading method. The calibration certificate for the direct reading dust meter is provided in Appendix C.

2.3 Construction Noise Monitoring

Monitoring Requirement

2.3.1 In accordance with the EM&A Manual, impact noise monitoring should be conducted at the designated noise monitoring stations for at least once a week during the construction phase of the Project. The parameters, frequency and duration of impact noise monitoring is summarized in Table 2.3.

Table 2.3 Construction Noise Monitoring Parameters, Frequency and Duration

Parameter	Duration	Frequency
A-weighted equivalent continuous sound pressure level (Leq). L10 and L90 were also recorded	30 minutes	At least once per week

Monitoring Equipment

2.3.2 Noise monitoring was performed using sound level meter at the designated monitoring station. The sound level meters deployed comply with the International Electrotechnical Commission Publications 651:1979 (Type 1) and 804:1985 (Type 1) specifications. Acoustic calibrator was deployed to check the sound level meters at a known sound pressure level.

2.3.4 Noise measurement should be conducted as the following procedures:

a) Free field measurements was made at monitoring location M-N3. A correction of +3 dB(A) shall be made to the free field measurements.

b) The battery condition should be checked to ensure good functioning of the meter.

c) Parameters such as frequency weighting, the time weighting and the measurement time should set as follow:

(i) Frequency weighting: A

(ii) Time weighting: Fast

(iii) Measurement time: continuous 5 minutes interval

d) Prior to and after noise measurement, the meter shall be calibrated using the calibrator for 94.0 dB at 1000 Hz. If the difference in the calibration level before and after measurement is more than 1.0 dB, the measurement will be considered invalid and repeat of noise measurement is required after re-calibration or repair of the equipment.

e) The wind speed at the monitoring station shall be checked with the portable wind meter. Noise monitoring should be cancelled in the presence of fog, rain, and wind with a steady speed exceeding 5 m/s, or wind with gusts exceeding 10 m/s.

f) Noise measurement should be paused during periods of high intrusive noise if possible and observation shall be recorded when intrusive noise is not avoided.

g) At the end of the monitoring period, the Leq, L10 and L90 should be recorded. In addition, site conditions and noise sources should also be recorded on a standard record sheet.

Maintenance and Calibration

2.3.5 Maintenance and calibration procedures should also be carried out, including:

a) The microphone head of the sound level meter and calibrator should be cleaned with a soft cloth at quarterly intervals.

b) The sound level meter and calibrator should be calibrated annually by a HOKLAS laboratory or the manufacturer.
