Programme Highlights

The existing Yuen Long Sewage Treatment Works (YLSTW), commissioned in 1984 now serves Yuen Long Town, Yuen Long Industrial Estate and Kam Tin area with treatment capacity of 70,000 m³/day at secondary sewage treatment level. To cope with the population growth and development needs, the treatment capacity of YLSTW will be upgraded to 100,000 m³ (in Stage 1) and 150,000 m³ (in Stage 2) per day and be transformed into Yuen Long Effluent Polishing Plant (YLEPP) at tertiary treatment level within the same tight footprint to meet the more stringent discharge requirements, thus minimising adverse environmental impact on the ecological setting to Deep Bay. During the upgrading works, about half of the existing sewage treatment facilities would be demolished, while the other half would be kept in operation to maintain the sewage treatment service for Yuen Long Area. The construction of Stage 1 works commenced in November 2020.

In combating climate change, design of YLEPP has taken multiple measures to minimize energy consumption and maximize energy generation, together with green building design and other sustainable features, striving towards carbon neutrality. For instance, biogas from sludge treatment process will be harvested using high-efficiency combined heat and power generator sets to support the daily operation of YLEPP.  For solar power, more than 5,300 monocrystalline-type PV panels with a total generation capacity of over 2.5 MW will be installed in YLEPP which will become one of the largest solar power generation facilities in Hong Kong upon its completion.  Moreover, YLEPP is the first wastewater treatment plant in Hong Kong adopting the advanced treatment technology of aerobic granular sludge (AGS) for biological treatment which is comparatively energy efficient with lower energy demand.

Through the technical visit, participants will be able to see the current civil works of the project and an understanding of the series of temporary sewage flow diversion works being undertaken in order to maintain the normal operation of the existing sewage treatment plant while the new works are carried out.

Programme Highlights

To ease pressure on developed areas and to meet the demand for land arising from population growth, the development of Kwu Tung North (KTN) / Fanling North New Development Areas (NDAs) was listed as one of the major infrastructure projects. Capitalising on its strategic location in proximity to the railway link, highways and the existing Boundary Control Points, and respecting the rich natural and ecological resources within the area, the KTN NDA is proposed to be developed as a ‘Mixed Development Node’ with a mix of residential, commercial, research and development, and agricultural uses as well as retail and services, community and government facilities and land for natural and ecological conservation. The NDAs will develop in two phases: the first phase and the remaining phase. The first phase of the project has commenced in early December 2019.

Being the largest contiguous freshwater wetland in Hong Kong, Long Valley is widely recognised for its high ecological value and environmental significance. As part and parcel of the NDA project, it will develop some 37 hectares of land at the core area of Long Valley into a nature park for conserving and enhancing the ecologically important environment. Besides maintaining the existing ecological value of Long Valley, the purposes of carrying out enhancement works of Long Valley are to provide tailor-made habitats for different living creatures and even for critically endangered species, through restoring the abandoned farmlands and creating more varieties of habitat, for example paddy fields and water flea ponds which are rare in Hong Kong nowadays. In concert with the needs of irrigating for agricultural uses in the future, the enchantment works also include construction of new irrigation channel. Through the visit, the participants can understand the engineering and environmental excellence of Hong Kong construction professions.

The soil in the KTN NDA contain naturally presented arsenic. Though the risks of those soil are low, the construction teams would follow strictly the recommendations and approval conditions in the Environmental Impact Assessment Report of the "North East New Territories New Development Areas Study", using cement stabilisation / solidification for treatment of high arsenic-containing soil. The participants will gain better understanding of the environmental mitigation process through visiting the arsenic treatment plant at Kwu Tung. Furthermore, the participants will visit the construction of service reservoirs which is one of the key infrastructure elements of KTN NDA.

Virtual Site Visit Arrangement

In view of the uncertainties brought by the COVID-19 pandemic in Hong Kong, we had no choice but to postpone a number of site visits which were scheduled earlier in the year.  To maintain our continuous quality learning opportunities to our members and our main theme of ‘Nurturing the Young’ while ensuring safety and wellness of all, we would like to launch an innovative initiative “virtual site visit” for the upcoming site visits.

Through video streaming with LIVE commentary, virtual site visit provides the participants with the ability to view the venue on their computer or mobile device at a safe place.  Instead of simply looking at photos, the participants will be given a full walk-through tour.  It also allows interactive communication between participants and the site host with a live Q&A session. Your usual support and enrolment is highly encouraged.

Programme Highlight

The civil project involves widening of a section of the current road from two lanes to dual two lanes, development of a cycling track, installation of noise barriers, implementation of greening works to compensate for the affected trees, construction of three footbridges and extensive water and sewage utility provisions. Upon completion of the project, Sai Sha Road will be wider with enhanced road safety together with the elimination of flooding risk. The application of innovative technologies will form a key approach on the project and includes the implementation of 4D Building Information Modelling (BIM) for construction of the pumping stations and the exploration of modular construction approaches for E&M works. Drone and 3D land surveying will also be adopted to monitor the site area to maintain instant and reliable project progress records. Engineers will also be able to access tree felling, transplanting and retaining progress using mobile apps on a real-time basis.

This technical visit will be jointly held by CIHT and HKIE Civil Division, and will begin with a brief introduction of the Sai Sha Road Widening Project and followed by a virtual tour with HKIE helper team and Site Project team.  The technical visit will be concluded by a Q&A session hosted by the project team and the HKIE Civil Division site visit reporters.
