3 estates pass water check

September 24, 2015

Water samples from Kwai Chung Estate phases four, five and six of have passed safety checks, meeting the World Health Organisation’s standard for lead content.

 

All three used lined galvanised iron pipes with no soldering.

 

The Housing Department and the Water Supplies Department have now completed systematic water sampling tests for public rental housing developments completed since 2005.

 

Like previous batches of water sampling test results, today’s announcement included non-domestic facilities used for commercial, social service, and educational purposes, in standalone buildings fed by independent fresh water supply systems.

 

Samples from these buildings also meet the WHO's guideline value, including Shek Pai Wan Estate Phase 1, Hoi Lai Estate Phase 3, Un Chau Estate Phase 5, Cheung Lung Wai Estate, Tak Long Estate, Cheung Sha Wan Estate, Lung Yat Estate, Mei Tin Estate and Yau Lai Estate Phase 5.
