The 『Standard of Land treatment』in Taiwan allows five kinds of industries to discharge their effluent to the land and use it as: (1). wastewater treatment plant, (2). nutrient receiver for the plant growth, and (3). nutrient receiver for fish aquaculture. The standard is out of date and need to be modified. Wastewater reclamation and reuse can be classified into three categories: (1). reuse after advanced treatment, (2). land treatment of wastewater, and (3). reuse of animal manure. Besides, wastewater reclamation for aquaculture should be includes because of many application in the rural area of Taiwan. The regulation of wastewater reclamation and reuse is first been proposed by recycling the wastewater that meets the effluent standards. The modified regulation of land treatment is then proposed to include four categories of application of wastewater reclamation and reuse. The regulation prohibits the reused wastewater to go to groundwater aquifer. The four categories of application of wastewater reclamation and reuse are : (1). land treatment of wastewater, (2). water resources applications, (3). animal manure reuse, and (4). aquaculture applications. The theoretical and fundamental studies concerning the selection of environmental standards as well as technical guidelines are suggested. The government officials of COA, MOEA, DOI and EPA should conduct more detail researches to provide complete base for building up the regulation.
