LAND TO BE RECLAIMED FOR BOATYARDS

Part Of Aberdeen Reclamation Scheme

The Government plans to reclaim an area of more than nine acres

in Po Chong Wan at the Aberdeen Channel to provide a number of sites for

boatyards, timber storage as well as a seamen's training centre.

On completion, this area will form part of the Aberdeen Reclamation

Stage II Scheme.

It has been so planned that interference in the present activities

of the existing boat building and repairing industry will be kept to a minimum.

The extent of the proposed reclamation is described in detail in a

Notification published in the Government Gazette today.

People having objection to the proposal or any claim of private

right should submit such objections and/or claims in writing to the Director

of Public Works within two months from the date of the Notification.

The Notice (both in English and Chinese) can be seen on notice boards

posted near the site.
