In order to maintain water quality, Taiwan EPA continues to promote water pollution emission control, non-point source pollution control, dry weather wastewater interception, on-site treatment purification, and sewage construction. But the effect of water quality improvement are slowing down, EPA has to face the new challenge in river water quality improvement. Because of this, Taiwan EPA work hard in order to further enhance the quality of the river water, according to the water pollution control act, promote the Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) as the main strategy of water quality improvement. In recent years, the food safety issues are getting more and more concerned, in order to protect the farmland from heavy metal pollution, EPA have started to promote the heavy metal TMDL strategy in specific farmland irrigation water to make sure the irrigation water quality conform to the irrigate standard. In addition to specific farmland irrigation water, EPA had also analyzed the ground water quality in 2015, to address the TMDL list which is serious polluted river including heavy metal pollution, to provide local government with reference in promoting local TMDL. This project also collected the local TMDL implementation plan from 2014 to 2016, provide the suggestion for Taiwan TMDL strategy promotion by analyzing these information. And the project also make an analyzing system by integrating lots of environmental data.
