1. Basic Project Information

1.1 Background

1.1.1 The proposed Desalination Plant at Tseung Kwan O (DPTKO) will produce potable water with an initial capacity of 135 million liters per day (MLD), expandable to an ultimate capacity of 270 MLD in the future to provide a secure and alternative fresh water resource complying with the World Health Organization (WHO) standards. The plant will adopt the Seawater Reverse Osmosis (SWRO) technology, which dominates the market due to its reliability and progressive reduction in cost as the technology advances.

1.1.2 Pursuant to the Environmental Impact Assessment Ordinance (EIAO), the Director of Environmental Protection granted the Variation of Environmental Permit (No. EP-503/2015/A) to Water Supplies Department (WSD) for the Project on 26 January 2018.

1.1.3 The scope of the Contract may be considered in brief, to consist of the laying of about 10km long 1200mm diameter fresh water mains and the associated works along the alignment of the Project as shown with the overall view in Figure 1.1.

S12.7		The Contractor should make the workers are aware of potential hazards of working in confined spaces (any chamber, manhole or culvert which is large enough to permit access to personnel). Such work in confined spaces is controlled by the Factories and Industrial Undertakings (Confined Spaces) Regulations of the Factories and Industrial Undertakings Ordinance. Following the Safety Guide to Working in Confined Spaces ensures compliance with the above regulations.
