Note: "X"

The beach has been closed for swimming purposes. Non-gazetted beaches.

The following beaches have changed grading on this occasion:

Stanley Main from "3" to "2"; Deep Water Bay and Tung O from "1" to "2"; New Cafeteria and Kadoorie from "2" to "3"; and Sivermine Bay, Casam and Lido from "3" to "4".

The changes are within the normal range of fluctuation of the bacteriological water quality of these beaches. The general deterioration of beach water quality is probably due to the recent heavy rainfall which have caused the pollutants in the beach hinterland to be flushed into the sea water.

Attention News Editors:

For further enquiries, please contact Dr Daniel Lau, Principal Environmental Protection Officer of EPD, on 2835 1216.
