Since 1982, the City of Yokohama has been studying the effects of storm water runoff control measures by setting up a model area in a residential area and installing two types of runoff control facilities – permeable pavement and infiltration pipes. The model area was subdivided into three areas according to the combination of the runoff control facilities. The study results revealed that 15 to 20 percent of the peak runoff control effect was achieved by the use of the installed runoff control facilities. Throughout the study period, no deterioration of the strength and features of the permeable pavement in comparison with ordinary pavement was observed.

The water quality in the 12 priority watercourses of Hong Kong was appraised in respect of the various environmental control measures being undertaken. It was noted that water quality in Lam Tsuen River had been significantly improved since 1983. This is attributed to recent resumption of unsewered lands for town development, training of river basin to increase flow, and declaration of the catchment as a “Water Control Zone” under the Water Pollution Control Ordinance. In contrast with the other heavily polluted watercourses to which little abatement measures were implemented, the water qualities of Shing Mun River and Tuen Mun River were slightly upgraded because of the efforts to rectify unauthorized industrial discharges back to foul sewer and provision of interceptors and sewers to villages. The 10 year Livestock Waste Control Scheme enforced on 24 June 1989 was found in parallel with BOD and suspended solids decrease in watercourses. To assess its effectiveness, however, a longer term monitoring is required to get a conclusive result.
