The execution of the project was scheduled from April 22, 2007 to April 21, 2008; the purpose was to enhance the current communication structure of EPA, resolve linkage difficulties encountered in public/private plants, coordinate the enhanced system functions at EPA, consult and assist plants in the transmission module renewal, verify the creditability of the monitoring data from continuous auto monitoring equipments, provide consultation and establish quality assurance operation, practice the quality assurance system and auditing operation, execute the RATA inspection auditing, compare the relativity between monitored and inspected data, and improve the efficiency of EPA continuous auto monitoring system, quality assurance operation, and onsite inspection. All work was executed according to schedule during project operation; the results were as shown in table 1.4-1. During the project operation, besides periodical maintenance of EPA information system and assistance in document inspections, 21 onsite inspections for functions of the monitoring system were completed. In addition, all incompliance was traced and corrected under our assistance to ensure the full compliance of the operation of the continuous auto monitoring system. Next, there were 8 RATA inspections performed including Taoyuan Refinery of CPC Corporation Taiwan (P002、P004、P005), Kuokuan Power Corporation P002, Chungsan Power Corporation P003, Shinzon incineration plant P002, Jinhsin plant, Nan Ya Plastic P501, and Huaya Cogeneration P101; all the inspections results met the requirement standards. In 2007, EPA had only conducted inspection on the CEMS linkage to the CPC Taoyuan refinery and found no major flaws, which indicated that CEMS control has been gradually achieving its goal under the supervision of EPA and our inspection and consultation efforts. For the photo electronic industries, this team also provided plant regulation consultation services in addition to the regular document inspection. During project execution, we inspected and assisted applications from TPO display company, AUO, Giantplus Technology, Changhua picture tube company, and Hannstar. In the mean time, the CEMS training seminar had been held on Feb., 19th, 2008; subject of volatile organic monitoring regulations had been presented in the seminar, which would be helpful in promoting plant’s CEMS management capability. During plants uploading their data, the effective monitoring percentage had all been greater than 90% for each plant in every season. This was in compliance with the CEMS regulation (85%). The uploading ratio also reached above 95%, which achieved the real time uploading control effect. The large display at the plaza in front of the city hall was in good condition under our maintenance; besides the air quality and CEMS monitoring figures display, the screen also promote many government policies, totaling 121 broadcasts, making the full use of the electronic bulletin board.
