Owing to sedimentation, the channels in Gei wai #10 has been silting up over the years; therefore the channels have gradually become shallow and invaded by terrestrial vegetation and reed which result in a loss of water channels for aquatic fauna and open water area for waterbirds.
As a result, habitat enhancement work will be carried out this summer: the perimeter channels will be desilted and unwanted vegetation and reed will be cleared. A 0.5ha vegetation on the landward side will also be cleared and restored to wet reedbed. The work period is anticipated to be from mid-Jul to October.
We apologize for any inconvenience or disruption this may cause. If you require any further information please telephone the WWF Mai Po Office on 2471- 6212.
