Hung Shui Hang Reservoir

Hung Shui Hang Reservoir (also known as Tan Kwai Hang Reservoir or Hung Shui Hang Irrigation Reservoir) is a reservoir located to the north of Kau Keng Shan, Tuen Mun, New Territories, Hong Kong. It is located at the northwestern edge of Tai Lam Country Park and less than one kilometre away from Lam Tei Reservoir. Like Lam Tei Reservoir, it is part of Tai Lam Chung Reservoir's further water supply plan and an irrigation reservoir. The reservoir is divided into two reservoirs. The water from the reservoir flows through Tan Kwai Tsuen and Chung Uk Tsuen and then through Hung Shui Kiu, passing through the west side of Tin Shui Wai and finally empties into the Deep Bay. Usage The reservoir is mainly used to irrigate agricultural land in the Yuen Long area, but it is remote and inaccessible due to its remoteness. It is close to the Lam Tei Quarry and there are no picnic facilities nearby, hence it is rarely visited on weekdays and holidays.

Lau Shui Heung Reservoir

Lau Shui Heung Reservoir, built in 1968 as part of the Plover Cove Reservoir engineering programme, is a reservoir located within the boundary of Pat Sin Leng Country Park in the eastern part of North District, New Territories, Hong Kong, located at the northeast area of Bird's Hill, at the northeast end of Sheung Shui-Fanling Plain. It covers an area of 3.5 hectares (8.6 acres) and a water storage capacity of 170,000 m3. It is used for collecting water from the northwestern part of Pat Sin Leng and supplying it to the Plover Cove Reservoir through a water conveyance tunnel, while Lau Shui Heung Reservoir is an irrigation reservoir used to irrigate nearby farmland. The Lau Shui Heung Country Trail passes through the reservoir. The main concrete dam is 24 m high and 54.9 m long, the secondary dam is 7.3 m high and 39 m long and the scale of the reservoir is small. The reservoir is the main source of Kwan Tei River, and the water from the reservoir flows into Kwan Tei and then the Ng Tung River. History The reservoir was formed at the head of a valley with the construction of a 12m concrete gravity dam and a 10m earth-filled dam to connect with a tunnel to provide water transfer to Hok Tau Reservoir. Construction started in 1966 and was completed in 1968. In April 2018, mountain hikers discovered that the Lau Shui Heung Reservoir had been severely dried up recently, and cracks were seen at the bottom of the reservoir. They could walk down the reservoir to the opposite bank. The Water Supplies Department stated that the lack of rainfall in the past winter amid irrigation by nearby villagers had led to water depletion in the reservoir. However, the nearby Hok Tau Reservoir, which is also an irrigation pond and of the same size, did not dry up. It was suspected that the nearby Lung Shan Tunnel Project had drained the groundwater. Until the beginning of June that year, due to the influence of the outer rainbands associated with Tropical Storm Ewiniar, nearly 100 mm of rainfall had fallen in the past 3 days, which was more than 10 mm more than the total rainfall of the past two months. At the same time, more than 200 mm of rainfall was recorded in the past 24 hours in the northern New Territories, enough to fill the reservoir with a capacity of 170,000 m3 and restore the title of "mirror of the sky". Environment and ecology The entire reservoir is surrounded by tree-lined valleys and mature woodlands, with rows of Melaleuca trees growing by the reservoir. The reservoir is quite deep, so the color of the reservoir is green, known as mirror of the sky in Hong Kong; the bottom of the reservoir is covered with sand and rocks of various sizes, providing a diverse habitat for different fishes. Many fish species can be found in the reservoirs, including Channa asiatica, which is uncommon in Hong Kong. Because of its location in a deep valley, it became a popular place for people to go out and barbecue there.

Hoi Mei Wan Beach

The beach has barbecue pits and is managed by the Leisure and Cultural Services Department of the Hong Kong Government. The beach is rated as Grade 2 by the Environmental Protection Department for its water quality. The beach offers views of the Ting Kau Bridge as well as Tsing Ma Bridge. History In 1979, the beach was gazetted by the Hong Kong Government. However, since May 1995, the beaches in Tsuen Wan District were closed due to the construction of the nearby Ting Kau and Tsing Ma Bridges and no longer allowed the public to swim due to its poor water quality and lifeguard services have to be suspended. The beach has been reopened to the public for swimming since 15 June 2011. Water quality In early 2003, Hoi Mei Wan Beach (along with three other nearby beaches) was closed because the water quality had worsened following the commissioning of Stage 1 of the Harbour Area Treatment Scheme (HATS). While HATS Stage 1 overall improved water quality in Victoria Harbour, it worsened conditions in the western area of the harbour because of the large quantity of non-disinfected effluent being released from the Stonecutters Island Sewage Treatment Works. Permanent disinfection facilities were built at Stonecutters Island under HATS Stage 2, and water quality subsequently improved. Hoi Mei Wan Beach was officially reopened to swimmers on 15 June 2011, and lifeguards are provided there once again. Features The beach has the following features: BBQ pits (3 nos.)
