List of Figures
Figure 2.1 Moderate Ecological Protection Areas (MEPAs; E3) in relation to the
proposed dredging, disposal and reclamation areas. The marine waters
outside of the moderate ecological protection areas are classified as High
Ecological Protection Areas (HEPA; E2) (EPA 2000). The estuarine waters
upstream of the Inner Harbour MEPA are not encompassed by the EPA
(2000) classification, but will be managed as a MEPA for this Project. ............. 4
