23 divers from DK volunteered to assist in improving the marine park environment at Tung Ping Chau in a clean-up exercise on 12 September 2004.

The annual exercise was organised by the Agriculture, Fisheries and Conservation Department (AFCD) to clear the ghost-fishing gear (GFG) and litter found in the marine park area so as to prevent causing further damage to marine resources, and to improve the coastal environment of the marine park.

Abandoned fishing equipment left on the seabed might continue to trap and kill marine life and even impose threat to divers if not cleared regularly.

The exercise was also participated by divers from various diving organizations.

Other volunteers also assisted in litter collection at nearby beaches.
