EIA OF A STADIUM
Kai Tak Multi-purpose Sports

Complex
THE PROJECT
• The Project site covers a land area of about 28.2 hectares.
• It is bounded by Central Kowloon Route to the south and
dissected by Road D2 in the middle.
• It is a multi-purpose complex comprising a 50,000-seat
Main Stadium,
• a 7,000-seat Public Sports Ground, an Indoor Sports Centre,
• and other ancillary/supporting facilities such as car parking
spaces, hotel, office area for sports-related organizations
and a commercial area.
AIR QUALITY IMPACT
ASSESSMENT
• The Project by itself is not an air pollutant source;
• however, the traffic induced by the operation of the Project
may cause additional air quality impact on sensitive receivers
along the traffic routes in the area.
• Study Area is defined by a distance of 500m from the
boundary of the Project site.
• with consideration to be extended to include major existing,
planned and committed air pollutant emission sources that
may have a bearing on the environmental acceptability the
Project.
Key Air Pollution Parameters
• Construction Phase:
• The major construction works of the Project would be piling, pile cap
construction and backfilling, works for basement structures,
superstructure,
• installation of steel frame and retractable roof of the Main Stadium,
builder’s works, external works and landscaping works.
• During the construction phase of the Project, dust would arise
• primarily from:
• Heavy construction works (piling, pile cap construction,
backfilling,basement construction and foundation); and
• Wind erosion of open sites.
• Operational Phase
• The emission sources during the operational phase
of the Project would be the vehicular emissions
from both the new and existing roads.
• Nitrogen dioxide (NO2), respirable suspended
particulates (RSP), and fine suspended particulates
(FSP) are the key criteria pollutants for assessment
of the air quality impact in this Project
• Mitigation Measures
• Traffic Management
• Restriction on loading and unloading time
• Reduction of Emissions at Source
NOISE IMPACT ASSESSMENT
• The major construction activity of the Project would involve
piling works and
• pipe cap construction, foundation works, superstructure,
builder works, and external works.
• There will be several concurrent construction projects within
the construction programme of the Project including Sha Tin
Central Link (SCL), Kai Tak Development (KTD), and Central
Kowloon Route (CKR).
• Construction noise from these concurrent projects will be key
noise sources to the identified NSRs under the Project.
• OPERATIONAL PHASE
• Traffic induced by the Main Stadium would
aggravate the traffic noise impact on the NSRs
along the traffic routes during the operation of the
Project.
• Entertainment activities, such as musical concerts,
would make use of loudspeakers with powerful
bass. The spectators participated in such activities
would also create noise.
Mitigation of Environmental Impacts
• Construction Noise
• Construction noise impact can be mitigated with the following measures:
• (a) Adopt good site practice, such as throttle down or switch off equipment
unused or intermittently used between works.
• (b) Regular maintenance of equipment to prevent noise emission due to impair.
• (c) Position mobile noisy equipment in locations away from NSRs and point the
noise sources to directions away from NSRs.
• (d) Use silencer or muffler for equipment.
• (e) Make good use structures for noise screening.
• (f) Use Quality Powered Mechanical Equipment (QPME) and quiet
equipmentwhich produces lower noise level.
• Operational phase:
• The structure of the stadium shall be
soundproofing and complete.
• The entrances of the stadium shall have special
acoustic design (e.g. double acoustic door)
• such that the soundproofing performance of the
structure is not compromised
WATER QUALITY IMPACT
ASSESSMENT
• Construction Phase
• During construction phase, the marine water
activities include marine transportation of
construction material, prefabricated items and
construction waste material.
• Other activities will be land based.
• General Construction Activities
• Construction Runoff and Drainage
• Groundwater Seepage during Construction
• Operational phase:
• The potential water quality impact would be
caused by dripping of organics from vehicles in car
parking area.
• There will be some level of chemicals/fuels to be
stored on site, such as
• cleaning products, turf maintenance products
(fertilizers/pesticides etc.), different type of fuel.
• potential impacts may be caused by use of
detergents in cleaning seats and building facades,
and mixing of solids with the stormwater runoff.
• Mitigation Measures for Adverse Environmental
Impacts
• Construction Phase Impacts
• Construction Site Runoff and General Construction
Activities
• Sewage from Workforce
• The presence of construction workers generates
sewage. It is recommended to
• provide sufficient temporary toilets in the works areas.
The toilet facilities should be
• more than 30 m from any watercourse. A licensed
waste collector should be
• deployed to clean the temporary toilets on a regular
basis.
CONCLUSION
• Air impact assessment :
• all dust concentrations at ASRs would comply with the TSP criterion as
well as the relevant AQO for RSP and FSP. Hence, no adverse residual air
quality impacts are anticipated during the construction phase.
• Noise impact assessment :
• Construction noise would be generated from the use of powered
mechanical equipment (PME). With the implementation of mitigation
measures such as adoption of good site practice and use of quieter PME
and mobile noise barriers,
• the mitigated construction noise from the Project at all the
representative noise sensitive receivers(NSR) would comply with the
criterion.
• Water impact assessment :
• with the implementation of the recommended
mitigation measures, the operation of the Project
will unlikely result in unacceptable stormwater
discharge problem.
Thank you.
