12.2 Comment and Recommendations

12.2.1 The recommended environmental mitigation measures, as proposed in the EIA report and EM&A Manual shall be effectively implemented to minimize the potential environmental impacts from the Project. The EM&A programme would effectively monitor the environmental impacts generated from the construction activities and ensure the proper implementation of mitigation measures.

12.2.2 According to the environmental site inspections performed in the reporting month, the following recommendations were provided:

Air Quality Impact

· The Contractor is recommended to increase watering for dust suppression during demolition of workshop.

Construction Noise Impact

· No specific observation was identified in the reporting month.

Water Quality Impact

· Provide mitigation to prevent direct discharge of silt-laden water into the storm drain near the boot cleaning basin.

Chemical and Waste Management

· Drip tray should be provided for the chemical as mitigation to prevent accidental spillage.

Land Contamination

· No specific observation was identified in the reporting month.

Ecological Impact

· The contractor is reminded to maintain and reinstate the silentup at the northern site boundary.

Landscape and Visual Impact

· No specific observation was identified in the reporting month.

Hazard to Life

· No specific observation was identified in the reporting month.

Permit/ Licenses
