This project is a continuous regulatory or control plan that wasexecuted in the following 3 main stages: The first stage involved performing various tasks related to reducing air pollutants, including sulfur oxides, nitrogen oxides, particulate pollutants or matter, and volatile organic compounds. The second stage involved implementing management and permit tasks related to stationary pollution sources. Finally, the third stage involvedexpandingthe economic incentive strategy to include air pollution fee collection, rewards, and subsidies. The above stages were performed toenhance current understandings of the pollution characteristics and emissions situation of stationary pollution sources in the county and assist in the formulation ofair pollution regulatory strategies and action plans for stationary pollution sources, thereby improving and protecting the county’s air quality.
This plan was executed over 12months from March 23, 2012, to March 22, 2013. The various relevant operations were executed according to a predetermined schedule. The executed operations included database maintenance, updating, and management; permit system functions (including review and checking or auditing);pursuing, reviewing, and auditing outstanding air pollution fees; auditing and reviewingonline emission declarations;auditing industrial parks; verifying activated carbon efficiency and auditing waste-based activated carbon; and organizing various promotional information sessions.
During the plan executionperiod, 2,693 stationary pollution sources were listed and regulated. The majority of the regulated manufacturing processes were performed by the mechanical equipment manufacturing and repair, textile, print and dye, and chemical products manufacturing industries. Additionally, 48 businesses designated by the Environmental Protection Administration were inspected. The inspection results were inputtedinto the stationary pollution source system and communicated to the Environmental Protection Administration’s Emissions Volume Management Project, after which the information in theTEDS version 8.0 was updated.Furthermore, statistics of the annual air pollutant emissions volume during the project execution periodwere as follows: particulate pollutants or matter: 3,577.965 metric tons per annum; sulfur oxides: 12,389.386 metric tons per annum; nitrogen oxides: 14,564.492 metric tons per annum; and volatile organic compounds: 7,141.384 metric tons per annum.
The key tasks for this yearwere to inspectand regulate industrial parks. Thus, 220 businesses in the Pingzhen Industrial Park and Youth Industrial Park were selected for on-site inspections.Currently, of129 businesses in the Pingzhen Industrial Park, 115 have been inspected, for a coverage rate of 89.1%. Of the 121 businesses in theGuanyin Industrial Park, 106 have been inspected, for a coverage rate of 87.6%. Considering these particular sites, we recommend that the 13 public and private areas recently added to regulated sites should be included in air pollution fee regulations and required to apply for operation permits. Regarding operations to verify activated carbon adsorption equipment efficiency, 12 businesses and 20 pieces of equipment have been inspected. The overall compliance rate was 95%.
Other specific achievements include the completion of 1,293 permit-related manufacturing process inspections, the issuing of 899 permits, the performance of 205 manufacturing process permit audits, the identification of 1,361 businesses liable for air pollution fee collection,the successful pursuit of 408 cases of outstanding fees (totaling NT$62,583,585), the execution of on-site air pollution feeauditsat567 businesses, the completion of an air pollution fee reviewfor the fourth quarter of 2011 to the third quarter of2012, and relevantverification, acceptance, and settlement. The content and results of various operations are detailed in the sections of this report.
We recommendthat more progressive methods, as listed below, be adopted for plan execution.
•Enhance bituminous coal regulations andincrease the efficiency of follow-up data analysis. We suggest developing an integrated system for information related to bituminous coal, such as air pollution fees, emission volumes, operational permit data, and regular inspection information, to provide faster, more convenient, accurate, and logical information as a basis for establishing policies.
•Regarding the collection of air pollution fees and the benchmarks for emission volume declarations, we recommendthat the Environmental Protection Administration integrate emission volume calculation methods as soon as possible. Besides increasing the precision of air pollution fees, the verification of air pollutant emission volumescan provide a basis for the planning of other pollution regulations.
