Water Quality Protection

 

To safeguard the water quality of the reservoirs, double-layered silt curtains were installed around the worksites before commencing the construction work. Temporary earth bund or cofferdam was constructed within the silt curtain to enclose the construction areas, preventing any construction materials from entering the reservoirs during the construction period. The project team also closely liaised with the Water Supplies Department and conducted regular water quality monitoring. With these effective preventive measures in place, the construction work did not have any adverse impact on the water quality of the reservoirs.
