Seawall Reinstatement Works at Kwun Tong Tsai Wan

From 9 April and for a period of approximately five months, seawall reinstatement works will be carried out within the area bounded by straight lines joining the following co-ordinates (WGS 84 Datum) from (A) to (D) and the adjacent shoreline: (A) 22deg 17.733� N 114deg 13.991� E (B) 22deg 17.757� N 114deg 13.977� E (C) 22deg 17.795� N 114deg 14.055� E (D) 22deg 17.771� N 114deg 14.069� E The works will be carried out by one derrick lighter, one tug and one work boat. The number of vessels engaged in the works will change from time to time to suit operational requirements. A working area of approximately 50 metres around the lighter will be established. Yellow marker buoys fitted with yellow flashing lights will be laid to mark the positions of the anchors extending from the lighter. The hours of works will be from 0700 to 1900 hours. No works will be carried out on Sundays and public holidays. Vessels employed for the works will stay in the works area outside the hours of work. A silt curtain, extending from the sea surface to the seabed, will be established within the works area. The silt curtain is large piece of netting used to contain mud and sediments. Yellow markers fitted with yellow flashing lights will be laid to mark the extent of the silt curtain. Vessels engaged in the operations will display signals as prescribed in international and local regulations. Vessels navigating in the vicinity should proceed with caution.
