This Project is based on the framework consisted of three measures, which are “quality management for the on-going projects”, “review and dissemination of project achievements”and “project planning in the future”. Through assisting the Environmental Protection Administration, Taiwan, ROC (Taiwan EPA) to execute this Project, fruitful outcomes and virtual contributions are accompanied as the followings: 1. Quality Management for the On-going Projects: Totally 40 seminars or meetings were held during this Project, and valuable suggestions and comments were also brought out. For example, administrational policy, practical measures and project management were broadly discussed in the issue of “Dialogue between Taiwan EPA and the project executor of entrusted consultant company”. While referring Taiwan EPA to international cooperation and environmental issues, the Country’s sustainable policy, as well as the cognition and cooperation with Canada, European Union (EU) and Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) were mentioned as the high priority. Meanwhile, the “Environmental Technology Planning Seminar”generalized the importance to promote the green-technology based knowledge, and to strengthen the programming ability of Taiwan EPA’s staffs to adopt the innovative technology in the field of environment. Moreover, the “Entrusted Nanotechnology Project Planning Seminar”provided advices for amending the aspects and contents of the “National Science and Technology Program for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology”in the future. 2. Review and Dissemination of Project Achievements: In order to disseminate the achievements of Taiwan EPA’s environmental technology projects and to provide Taiwan EPA references for drafting the future programs, 3 annual technology achievements publishing and evaluation meetings were convened. The evaluation results showed that, the project topics of FY-2005 and FY-2006 were targeted relatively suitable, while strong correlation and clear demarcation were displayed among the consecutive projects. The conclusion referred that the civil environmental and innovative technology should be both listed in Taiwan EPA’s top funding priority for technology projects and programs. 3. Project Planning in the Future: This Project compiled the conclusions and comments from all the meetings and seminars above for Taiwan EPA to draw up the future technology program and policy. Besides, drafting and amendment for regulations of Taiwan EPA’s management of technology project and administrational program were also accomplished on the base of current operational process. In the mean time, these regulations should be continually amended to meet the requirement of the future operation.
