Dredging works for Stonecutters Island Naval Base
The Government intends to carry out dredging works to the south of Stonecutters Island to provide a military anchorage area of about 695,000 square metres for four mooring buoys.
The anchorage area will replace the existing Royal Navy anchorage area near the former Tamar naval base and will be used by the Chinese Navy in future as part of the agreement on defence lands reached in the Sino-British Joint Liaison Group on June 30, 1994.
The work will commence in September 1996 for completion in April 1997.
The extent of the area affected is contained in a notice published in the Government Gazette today (Friday).
Any person who considers that he has an interest, right or easement in or over the foreshore and sea-bed involved may submit a written objection to the Director of Lands on or before June 12, 1996.
Such notice of objection shall describe the interest, right or easement of the objector and the matter in which he alleges he will be affected.
