Seawall Enhancement Works to the East of the River Trade Terminal

For approximately two months, marine works involving seawall enhancement works will be carried out within the area bounded by straight lines joining the following co-ordinates (WGS 84 Datum) from (A) to (C):

(A) 22° 21.477’N / 113° 57.240’E

(B) 22° 21.308’N / 113° 57.411’E

(C) 22° 21.302’N / 113° 57.196’E

Yellow marker buoys fitted with yellow flashing lights and radar reflectors are laid to mark the boundary of the works area at co-ordinates (A), (B) and (C).

The works will be carried out by one derrick lighter. Two guard boats and one tugboat will provide assistance. The number of vessels engaged in the works will change from time to time to suit operational requirements.

A separate yellow marker buoy fitted with yellow flashing light will be laid at a position close to co-ordinate (B) to mark the position of the anchor extending about 320 metres from the lighter.

The hours of work will be from 0800 to 1800 hours. Vessels employed for the works will not stay in the works area outside the hours of work.

Vessels engaged in the operations will display signals as prescribed in international and local regulations.

Vessels navigating in the vicinity should proceed with caution.
