extent of the 25 Fairview Park is significantly greater, affecting an additional band approximately a further half kilometre wide from Fairview Park through the fishponds to Tin Shui Wai and then across the peninsula and out to Deep Bay. Thus the land area affected is considerably increased and this reflects the different assumed method of operating the parallel runways. Within this enlarged land area, the third in the group of three recognised villlages referred to in para 5.3.2 now lies within the contour

Comparison of the extent of land area and settlement affected by these two options with the best case indicated on Figure 5.1 indicates the extent to which possibilities for ameliora- tion of these impacts exists.

: The So called "best case" affects some 2,666 people within the 25

NEF contour. Of the two operational options considered in detail, that for the tandem alignment affects 24,015 people and that for the parallel alignment 28,204.
