For a complete EMS, Project Proponent/Operator may refer to "A Simple Guide to Set
Up An EMS"” published by EPD and available from CEM Section , EPD, HK
Government; or, make reference to the comprehensive EMS prescribed in ISO 14000
series (International Organization for Standardization, Case Postale 56, CH-1211
Geneve 20, Switzerland).
.
The environmental protection conditions, including, all statutory limits for project
operation, all EIA/EA study recommendations and requirements, ACE conditions and any
endorsed public comments related to the operational phase of the development project shall
be clearly defined in the Operational Phase EM&A Manual. The various measures for
implementation by the Project Proponent/Operator shall be in a tabulated format for easy
reference (see attached checklist proforma, in the form of an Implementation Schedule at
Appendix E1).
The EIA/EA study is the means to document the prediction and assessment of a
project's environmental performances during, inter alia, its operational phase. It is vitally
important for the EIA/EA study to not only identify and quantify the predicted environmental
scenario arising from a projects implementation; but also to put forward the means and
mechanisms to forewarn, prevent, minimize and stop any potential adverse impact
throughout the duration of the project, by reference to a checklist of resource requirements.
On the basis of this information, the Project Proponent/Operator shall cost the environmental
protection items and provide the necessary and essential resources in a timely and efficient
manner. For projects which the Project Proponent might not be the project operator or there
is a transfer of ownership, it is the responsibility of the Project Proponent (originator) to
ensure continuity for the undertaking of environmental protection requirements as per Section
5.4.
