1 Introduction

1.1 Background

The project proponent, Airport Authority Hong Kong (“AAHK”) is planning to construct a dedicated road, named as the Airport Tung Chung Link (“ATCL”), to extend the passenger transport services using autonomous vehicles (“AV”) from the Airportcity Link (“ACL”), which is currently under construction, to Tung Chung, aiming to enhance connectivity between the Hong Kong Port (“HKP”), SKYCITY and Tung Chung.

ATCL Project (hereafter referred to as “the Project”), comprising ATCL and the marine facilities in the waters between Airport Island and HKP Island, is a designated project under Environmental Impact Assessment Ordinance (“EIAO”). The ATCL Project Environmental Impact Assessment Report (“EIAR”) (Register No. AEIAR-254/2023) was approved by the Director of Environmental Protection (“DEP”) and an Environmental Permit No. EP-630/2023 for the construction and operation of the ATCL Project was first granted by DEP to AAHK on 26 October 2023. Subsequently an application for variation of the Environmental Permit was submitted on 3 November 2025 and the current valid Environmental Permit (No. EP-630/2023/A) (hereafter referred to as “the EP”) was issued by Environmental Protection Department (“EPD”) on 1 December 2025.

The marine facilities in the waters between Airport Island and HKP Island are included in the ATCL Project EIAR (Register No. AEIAR-254/2023) and the ATCL Project EP (EP No. EP-630/2023/A), however, the construction of marine facilities and spur line of ATCL (including Academy Station) are not included in the current stage of ATCL construction. The alignment of ATCL is shown in Figure 1.1.

In February 2025, Mott MacDonald Hong Kong Limited (MMHK) was commissioned by AAHK under Contract C24C02 to provide Environmental Team (ET) consultancy services for implementation of an EM&A programme in accordance with the ATCL Project EP requirements throughout the Pre-construction, Construction and Post-construction phases of the ATCL Project. The construction phase EM&A programme of the ATCL Project started on 17 December 2025.

This is the 2^nd Monthly EM&A report summarising the key findings of the construction phase EM&A programme from 1 to 31 January 2026 (the reporting period) and is submitted to fulfil requirements in Condition 3.4 of EP and Section 12.3 of EM&A Manual of the Project.

2 Air Quality

2.1 Monitoring Requirements

According to the Sections 3.2.23 to 3.2.28 in the ATCL Project EM&A Manual, impact air quality monitoring for 1-hour Total Suspended Particulates (TSP) should be carried out at designated monitoring locations for at least three times in every six days when the highest dust impacts occur. Further details of the impact air quality monitoring are presented in the following sections.

2.1.1 Monitoring Parameters

1-hour TSP levels have been measured during impact air quality monitoring in accordance with the ATCL Project EM&A Manual. The monitoring information (e.g. monitoring date, monitoring time, weather conditions, dust source(s), other specific phenomena) was recorded in the data record sheet during the monitoring.

2.1.2 Monitoring Locations

The monitoring locations for impact air quality monitoring are summarised in Table 2.1 and shown in Figure 2.1.

Table 2.1: Impact Air Quality Monitoring Stations

ID	ASR ID adopted in EIA Report	Description	Monitoring Parameter	Monitoring Level
AM1a ⁽¹⁾	---	Tat Tung Road Garden	1-hour TSP	Ground Floor
AM2	A11	Hong Kong Airlines Training Academy	1-hour TSP	Ground Floor
AM3	A10	CNAC House	1-hour TSP	Podium

Remark:

(1) As advised by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department, Tung Chung Community Garden (original monitoring station ID: AM1; ASR ID: A20) as stipulated in Table 3.1 of the ATCL Project EM&A Manual has been decommissioned and hence not accessible. Therefore, Tat Tung Road Garden which located next to the Tung Chung Community Garden is proposed to be the alternative air quality monitoring station. The proposed alternative location was agreed by the Independent Environmental Checker (“IEC”) and AAHK on 3 April 2025 and approved by EPD on 2 June 2025.

Impact air quality monitoring station, AM4, which is designated in the ATCL Project EM&A Manual for the proposed marine facilities during construction phase is not included in this report, as the construction of marine facilities is not part of the current stage of ATCL construction (refer to Section 1.1).

2.1.3 Monitoring Equipment and Methodology

Direct reading method by the use of portable direct reading dust meters was proposed to be used for impact air quality monitoring for this ATCL Project, based on the provisions set out in Section 3.2.7 of the ATCL Project EM&A Manual. With the use of portable direct reading dust meters, it can allow prompt and direct results for the EM&A reporting and the implementation of the Event and Action Plan. The proposal for adopting direct reading method by the use of portable direct reading dust meters was approved by the IEC.

General meteorological conditions throughout the impact monitoring period were recorded. It is considered that the wind data obtained at the existing Hong Kong Observatory’s (HKO) Chek Lap Kok wind station is representative of the Project area and could be used for undertaking the impact air quality monitoring programme for the ATCL Project. The proposed use of the existing wind data collected from Chek Lap Kok wind station for wind data collection instead of setting up wind monitoring equipment near the monitoring stations was proposed by the ET Leader and agreed by the IEC, in accordance with the requirements stated in Section 3.2.9 of the ATCL Project EM&A Manual.

The measuring procedures of the portable direct reading dust meter are followed in accordance with the Manufacturer’s Instruction Manual as presented below:

SIBATA model no. LD-3B

a) set POWER to “ON” and make sure that the battery level was not flash or in low level;

b) pull the air sampling inlet cover up;

3 Noise

3.1 Monitoring Requirements

According to the Section 4.3.11 in the ATCL Project EM&A Manual, impact construction noise monitoring for L_eq
(30min)should be carried out at designated monitoring locations once every week when there are project-related construction activities being undertaken within a radius of 300m from the monitoring stations. Further details of the impact construction noise monitoring are presented in the following sections.

3.1.1 Monitoring Parameters

Construction noise level should be measured in terms of the A-weighted equivalent continuous sound pressure level (L_eq). L_{eq (30min)}shall be used as the monitoring parameter for the time period between 0700 and 1900 hours on normal weekdays. For all other time periods, L_{eq (5min)}shall be employed for comparison with the Noise Control Ordinance (NCO) criteria. As supplementary information for data auditing, statistical results such as L₁₀ and L₉₀ were also obtained for reference.

3.1.2 Monitoring Locations

The monitoring locations for impact construction noise monitoring are summarised in Table 3.1 and shown in Figure 3.1.

Table 3.1: Noise Monitoring Stations

Monitoring Station ID	Representative NSR ID in EIA Report	Description	Monitoring Level	Type of Measurement

Remark:

(1) The Priests’ Quarters of the Planned Visitation Church Development is under construction during the impact noise monitoring period. Subject to the construction programme of the planned NSR, its impact monitoring status will be reviewed when necessary.

3.1.3 Monitoring Equipment and Methodology

Hand-held sound level meter was used for impact noise monitoring. Sound level meter in compliance with the International Electrotechnical Commission Publications 651:1979 (Type 1) and 804:1985 (Type 1) specifications was used for carrying out the impact construction noise monitoring. Immediately prior to and following each noise measurement, the accuracy of the sound level meter was checked using an acoustic calibrator generating a known sound pressure level at a known frequency. The noise measurements were made in accordance with standard acoustical principles and practices in relation to weather conditions. Measurements would be accepted as valid only if the calibration level from before and after the noise measurement agrees to within 1.0 dB.

Table 3.2 summarises the equipment used in the reporting period. Copies of the calibration certificates for the equipment used during the reporting period are attached in Appendix D.

During the monitoring, traffic noise was noted in the vicinity.

No complaint was received from any sensitive receiver that triggered the Action Level. All monitoring results were also within the corresponding Limit Levels at all monitoring stations in the reporting period. Therefore, no exceedance for impact construction noise monitoring was recorded during the reporting period.

4 Water Quality

4.1 Monitoring Requirements

According to the Sections 5.7.7 to 5.7.11 in the ATCL Project EM&A Manual, impact water quality monitoring should be carried out at designated monitoring locations for three days per week, at mid-flood and mid-ebb tides. Further details of the impact water quality monitoring are presented in the following sections.

4.1.1 Monitoring Parameters

Monitoring for Dissolved Oxygen (DO), Dissolved Oxygen Saturation (DO%), temperature, pH, turbidity, salinity, suspended solid (SS) and water depth should be undertaken at all designated monitoring locations. All parameters should be measured in-situ whereas SS should be determined by an accredited laboratory. DO should be presented in mg/L and in % saturation.

Two replicate in-situ measurements and samples collected from each independent sampling event shall be collected to ensure a robust statistically interpretable database.

Other relevant data should also be recorded, including monitoring location / position, time, water depth, tidal stages, weather conditions and any special phenomena or work underway at the construction site.

4.1.2 Monitoring Locations

The marine facilities in the waters between Airport Island and HKP Island are included in the approved ATCL Project EIAR and the ATCL Project EP, however, the construction of marine facilities is not included in the current stage of ATCL construction. Therefore, water quality monitoring will only be undertaken for the marine water quality monitoring stations for the marine viaduct (namely IM2, IM3, SR3, C3 and C4).

The monitoring locations for impact water quality monitoring are summarised in Table 4.1 and shown in Figure 4.1.

Table 4.1: Water Quality Monitoring Stations

Stations	Descriptions	Easting	Northing
IM2	Impact Station	812258	817871
IM3	Impact Station	810725	816626
SR3	Seawater Intake at Tung Chung	811780	817172
C3	Control Station	812785	818754
C4	Control Station	809533	817234

4.1.3 Monitoring Equipment and Methodology

Measurement should be taken at 3 water depths, namely, 1m below water surface, mid-depth and 1m above sea bed, except where the water depth less that 6m, the mid-depth station may be omitted. Should the water depth be less than 3m, only the mid-depth station will be monitored.

Duplicate in-situ measurements and water samples collected from each independent monitoring event are required for all parameters to ensure a robust statistically interpretable dataset. At each measurement depth, two consecutive measurements would be taken. The probes would be retrieved out of the water after the first measurement and then redeployed for the second measurement. When the difference in value between the first and second measurement of on-site parameters is more than 25% of the value of the first reading, the reading shall be discarded and further readings shall be taken.

In addition, no sampling should be carried out when typhoon signal No. 3 or above or black rainstorm signal is hoisted.

Monitoring Equipment

In-situ measurements at monitoring locations including dissolved oxygen (DO), dissolved oxygen saturation (DO%), pH, temperature, turbidity, salinity and water depth shall be collected.

Calibration of in-situ instruments

In-situ monitoring instruments for water quality parameters shall be checked, calibrated and certified by a laboratory accredited under HOKLAS before use. Responses of sensors and electrodes shall be checked with certified standard solutions before each use.

Calibration certificates of the monitoring equipment used in the reporting period will be supplemented once impact water quality monitoring commences.

Sample Containers and Storage

Water samples for SS determination shall be stored in high density polythene containers with no preservative added, packed in ice (cooled to 4^oC without being frozen) and delivered to the testing laboratory within 24 hours of collection and analysed as soon as possible after collection.

4.1.4 Action and Limit Levels

In accordance with the ATCL Project EM&A Manual, baseline water quality monitoring at the water quality monitoring stations were established as presented in the Baseline Monitoring Report. The Action and Limit Levels of the impact water quality monitoring are presented in Table 4.2.

Table 4.2: Action and Limit Levels for Water Quality

Parameters	Action Level	Limit Level
DO in mg/L	Surface and Middle 5.1 Bottom 3.5	Surface and Middle 4.0 Bottom 2.0
SS in mg/L	Depth Average 10.8 and 120% of upstream control station at the same tide of the same day	Depth Average 13.4 and 130% of upstream control station at the same tide of the same day
Turbidity in NTU	Depth Average 7.9 and 120% of upstream control station at the same tide of the same day	Depth Average 9.9 and 130% of upstream control station at the same tide of the same day

Notes:

1. "Depth Average" is calculated by taking the arithmetic means of reading of all sampling depths.

2. For DO, non-compliance of the water quality limits occurs when monitoring result is lower than the limits.

3. For turbidity and SS, non-compliance of the water quality limits occurs when monitoring result is higher than the limits.

4. All the figures given in the table are used for reference only and the EPD may amend the figures whenever it is considered as necessary.

As learnt from the dominant flow direction, control station C4 will be at the upstream during ebb tide while control station C3 will be at the upstream during flood tide. As such, control station C4 will act as the control station during the ebb tide while control station C3 will act as the control station during the flood tide. The arrangement during the impact monitoring is detailed in Table 4.3.

Table 4.3: Corresponding Control and Impact Monitoring Stations during Impact Monitoring

Tidal Direction	Control Station	Impact Stations
Ebb Tide	C4	IM2, IM3, SR3
Flood Tide	C3	IM2, IM3, SR3

4.1.5 Event and Action Plan

Should non-compliance of the water quality criteria occur, actions in accordance with the Event and Action Plan in Appendix E shall be carried out.

4.2 Summary of Monitoring Results

During the reporting period, no marine works in relation to the marine viaduct was undertaken; therefore, no impact water quality monitoring was conducted in the reporting period.

5 Environmental Site Inspection and Audit

5.1 Environmental Site Inspection

Site inspections were carried out by ET on a weekly basis to monitor the implementation of proper environmental pollution control mitigation measures for the Project.
