For a quarter-century, DSD served as a staunch supporter of Hong Kong’s development. We strive to provide world-class wastewater and stormwater drainage services in order to improve the environment and living quality of the public, contributing to the sustainable development of Hong Kong.
To mark the 25th anniversary of DSD’s establishment, we held a series of celebrations and competitions this year, sharing the joy amongst our colleagues, working partners, and the public while enabling various stakeholders to better understand DSD’s working approach and future directions.
In October 2013, we held the “Logo and Slogan Contest for Primary Schools” and “Wall Painting Contest for Secondary Schools” under the theme of “DSD’s 25 Years of Excellent Service to Hong Kong”. The awards presentation ceremony was held on the 2014 DSD Open Day.

Winning logo and slogan
In January 2014, we organised the “25th Anniversary Tie and Scarf Design Competition”. The winning design presents an exquisite motif of water which was gradually purged of impurities into a clear stream. The visual identity resonates with our Department’s work.

In partnership with the Junior Achievement Hong Kong, we hosted two one-day “DSD Job Shadowing” activities in July and October 2014. Form 4 to 6 students from seven secondary schools were assigned to different divisions, “working” under the guidance of professional staff of DSD, which was a beneficial experience to students.
In November 2014, we organised a programme called “Eco Tour: A Half-Day Guided Tour of Kam Tin River”. Through the guided tour, DSD colleagues and working partners learned about the geographical features of river channels, as well as flood control, environmental protection, and river conservation works undertaken by government departments.
