The outcomes of this project include (1) the revision of relevant guidelines and criteria used as the basis of aquapu area and plant nursery programs, application process and SIP evaluation works. (2) completion of on-site inventory, monitoring and assessment works of related sites. (3) provided improvement guidelines for 2 less ideal sites so local governments can install future Aquapu Area more effectively. (4) updating related information regularly－updating and maintaining Aquapu Area website and plant nursery website. (5) Establishment of Green Bicycle Trail internet platform and green trail certification process. (6) arranging 2 meetings related to the river basin dust control project.
