The achievements are as follows: I) Diesel Vehicle Smoke Emission Tests: 1011 vehicles were tested for period ended 27th December 2005, and the number of those failing the tests totaled 71 or 7.09%; those with inadequate horse power 516, reaching a rejection rate of 30.7%. II) Issuing of Notice to vehicle owners arising from Visual Inspection of Smoke : 1825 visual inspections were performed for period ended 27th December 2005. the number of notices sent out was 1355. III) Random Testing of Petrol Quality: 182 random testings were done for period ended 27th December 2005, with 47 failing the tests or 28.6%. IV) Training Session of Operators: One training session of operators was conducted on 24th June 2005 at the Taitung County dynamometer inspection center. V) Promotion to Diesel vehicle Operators: One promotional conference to diesel vehicle operators was conducted on 23rd June 2005 at the Taitung County Workers Entertainment Center Conference Room situated on the first floor. VI) Printing of promotional Handbooks and Pamphlets: Altogether 2000 pieces of promotional pamphlets/handbooks, 750 pieces of memorabilia and 150 promotional posters were printed and delivered.

IX) The maintenance, alignment and management of the existing hardware and software for various equipment of the diesel vehicle inspection center was carried out, as well as the maintenance of the center’s CNLA laboratory. X) Worked with the Environmental Protection Administration (EPA) on assessment, review and audit of diesel vehicle smoke emission testing center for the setting up of a comprehensive database thereon. XI) The upgrading and purchase of new equipment including cameras, photographic system, thermometers and the modification of pressure meters. XII) Assisted the Taitung EPB to carry out the air quality maintenance and improvement work and implemented the assessment thereon; submitted monthly assessment reports and estimated the rate of reduction of pollution. XIII) Broadcast of promotion for diesel vehicle testing program in local stations including cable television stations. XIV) The estimate for the reduction of air pollution achieved for the period is 6.6 metric ton per year. 15.
