The Government intends to construct a drainage channel discharging into Tung Chung Wan at Lantau.
The works will involve dredging within an area of about 41,300 square metres of foreshore and sea-bed in Tung Chung Wan for the channel outfall. Construction work will commence next month for completion in August 1998.
The extent of the area affected is contained in a notice published in the Government Gazette today (Friday).
Any person who considers that his interest, right or easement in or over the foreshore and seabed involved may submit a written claim to the Director of Lands, second floor, Murray Building, Garden Road, Hong Kong on or before January 5, 1997.
