The project of auditing management and economical incentive policy review for air pollution control fee from stationary source

Absrtact	The Environmental Protection Administration has been collecting the Air Pollution Control Fee from stationary sources since 1998, providing economic incentives for factories to proactively reduce pollutant emission. The objectives of this project are reviewing the economic incentives, analyzing the effectiveness of the collection scheme, modification of calculation coefficients, and reviewing the fee calculation methods to ultimately develop the a fair polluter-pays system were all emission sources are accounted for. To provide better economic incentives, 4 collection schemes were proposed including control device cost analysis, seasonal differential rates, differential rates based on air quality zones, and price index analysis. The economical benefit of the fee collection system was analyzed and compared to other control strategies of other countries. The collection rates and were compared with cost of reduction strategies. Advices was made on the management and usage of the Control Fund. To encourage factories to install air pollutant control devices and conduct emission inventory, fee calculation methods were evaluated. To assess the results of the fee collection scheme, Key Performance Indexes (KPI) were proposed. 40 site inspections was completed to collect opinions on the fee calculation methods. The emission coefficients are adjusted based on the VOCs emission inventory of Kaohsiung and Tainan cities and emission monitoring data. 10 on-site visits were made to tape and optoelectronic materials manufactures and amendments to their emission coefficient were proposed. In terms of the measurement method, 15 comparisons of wastewater treatment plants composition were completed, and the VOCs emission coefficient calculated by Water9 was compared with the current announcement coefficient. Suggestions were made to amend the emission coefficient of two external combustion boilers and cement manufacturing. The EAP will continue to promote the development of economic incentive of the Air Pollutant Control Fee, the development of localized coefficients, the implementation of emissions auditing operations, and review the county and city inspection operations, so that the Air Pollution Control Fee Collection Regulations would be more complete and comprehensive.
