This project included three parts, planning of total quantity control institution, building the coordinated sets of measures for total quantity control plan, and assisting to execute the Kao-Pin total quantity control plan. Main results states as follows: 1. Modifying associated total quantity control rules There are two parts that needed to be reinforced in Kao-Pin total quantity control plan: the reduction of authorized pollutant emission quantity, and making designated reduction quantities actual emission reduction. To make supporting rules of total quantity control plan more adapted to the exact condition nowadays, we modified Pollutant emissions quantity authorization criterion for stationary pollution sources and Banking, offsetting and trading rules of emission reduction credits (ERCs) for stationary pollution sources and their associated guideline document. We also finished negotiation meeting with associated departments and policy report. EPA could finish the following process of rule regulation such as draft notice and public hearing. 2. Planning of Kao-Pin total quantity control plan and effect examination We established standard operating procedure of stationary pollution sources emission examination, and executed emission examination of 20 stationary pollutions. We used reported emission quantities in year 2016 as the standard to examine whether these factories achieved the pollution reduction goal. After researched associated institution worldwide, we planned to set emission reduction goal in individual factory through air pollution control technique and efficiency in factories. 3. Setting supporting regulatory measures for offset of pollutant emissions increasing of new and modified stationary pollution sources We have finished the regulation of offsetting for different kinds air pollutants, and we established three reduction measure methodologies for offsets: shore power, self-sufficient in electricity power through solar panels, and replacement of cleaner fuels of boilers. These would be helpful to the offset of pollutant emissions increasing of new and modified stationary pollution sources that reached the scale threshold. 4. Developing the system of air pollutant auction platform Besides learning from international experiences of emission allowance auction system for air pollutant and greenhouse gas, this project also consulted experts from the field of law and finance to develop a reliable air pollutant ERCs auction system with the help of system engineering company, and we also finished the guidebook of auction and system operation. 5. Assisting to hold taskforce meetings for total quantity control supervising and tracking committee Total quantity control supervising and tracking committee aimed to inspect the policy through negotiation and discussion. We helped collecting information and questions regarding execute of total quantity plan and helped the committee to review the work progress of total quantity control plan, and held at least 4 meetings this year. 6. Assessment of feasibility of total quantity control institution in other area We conducted area pollutant emissions quantity authorization simulation test in Central area and Yun-Chia-Nan area, and chose stationary sources with higher TSP and VOCs emission quantities as main targets this year. Through this process, factories would be more familiar with total quantity control plan and the application processes of pollutant emissions quantity authorization. We also finished the draft of total quantity control plan in Central area and Yun-Chia-Nan area, and gave advices about air pollution control in these areas.
