Abstract

-To collect and analysis the existing environmental parameters within the water regime to the north as well as north-western of Penang Island. This include the water regime surrounding Teluk Bahang, the headland of Muka Head and around Kampung Pantai Acheh, which llies to the north-western side of the island.-To establish the hydrodynamics in the water body around Penang Island-To establish the extend of dispersion of suspended sediment solids originating from the designated disposal site for the No-wind and with-wind conditions during both spring and neap tidal conditions.-To assess the possible impacts that could rise due to the fate of sediment dispersion as a result of the dumping activities to the shoreline of Penang Island.-To suggest, where possible, remedial measures to minimize any potential adverse impacts as a consequence of dumping activities generated by the dredging operations in the North Channel and approaches to NBCT and Butterworth Wharves.
