SEWAGE DISPOSAL AT LAI CHI KOK TO BE IMPROVED
A temporary sewage screening plant will be built at Lai Chi Kok
next year to improve the sewage discharge system in the area.
When completed, the plant will extract coarse screenings from the
sewage discharged from the Lai Chi Kok sewerage district.
The screened sewage, after passing through the plant, will be
conveyed to the existing twin-pipe submarine qutfall that discharges into
the sea.
The engineering works comprise the construction of a building where
the screening plant will be housed, and also an office for the employees who
will man the station.
The project will occupy about 200 ft. by 150 ft. on the eastern
side of the Lai Chi Kok incinerator.
Kok Road.

Construction will start next February and the project will take
about 7 months to complete.
