In order to implement resource recycle and to manage the recycle and treatment organizations more effectively, Taiwan EPA has amended the Waste Disposal Act in 2001 and re-announced the management regulation for five additional items to face enhanced management standards for the facilities of the recycle and treatment business companies. Therefore, this project follows the rules set in the “Management Regulation for Recycle Business Companies of Mandated Recycle Items”, “Management Regulation for Reimbursement to Recycle Business Companies”, and “Standards for Waste Storage, Disposal and Treatment Facilities”, to assist the Recycle Fund Management Committee in amending standard procedure and documentation forms for the recycle and treatment business companies regarding their application for reimbursement qualification and approval. The reimbursement qualification approval process is divided into two parts – the documentary review and the site inspection. The site inspection will be carried out by the reviewers committee with at least three reviewing members attending in one review meeting to assure strict review on the qualification for reimbursement. In addition, we also assisted the documentary review and site inspection of the application process. Until 12/31, the project has completed 950 documents review and 53 sites inspection with the summarized results and suggestions for future reference for amendment to the Regulations mentioned above. The project also completed review for 95 applications for off-set of investment that amounts to a total of 187,991,748 NTD. During the project, we also assisted the fund management board in public information program. Three workshops were held to assist business operators to further understand the regulation and government policy. Sample application documentations were provided for their reference. Further more, the project assisted in drafting a revision to the “Management Regulation for Recycle Business Companies of Mandated Recycle Items” for the fund management board to consider.
