The PAA welcomes the interest expressed by HEC in participating in the Site Preparation Contract at Chek Lap

Kok.

2.

Application for prequalification of tenderers for

Late applications, this contract was closed on 3 May 1991. including the one submitted by HEC, cannot be considered now because this would mean re-opening the prequalification exercise and would seriously delay the programme for the

contract.

3.

However, HEC can still participate in the site Preparation Contract in one of the following ways -

either a)

or

b)

as a sub-contractor to one of the

consortia or joint ventures who have already applied for prequalification;

in partnership with one of those

consortia or joint ventures.
