This program mainly aimed to practically promote regular exhaust test and maintenance system of motorcycle. Through auditing, notification and promotion regularly, the concept and habit of making regular test could be brought to the daily lives of citizens, and the quality of motorcycle exhaust in this district could be improved. In order to improve the air pollution caused by motorcycle exhaust, Environmental Protection Bureau of Kaohsiung City Government especially strengthened auditing and control strategies of the motorcycles being used by citizens. Apart from increasing the frequency of irregular stopping of motorcycles for inspection, Environmental Protection Bureau implemented patrol inspection operation and plate identification operation of the motorcycles not taking regular test in the various administrative districts of Kaohsiung City. Focusing on the motorcycles which had not taken regular exhaust test after expiration, and on those which had not passed exhaust test before but did not make a re-test and improvement, accusation was lodged against the motorcyclists, and punishment was given. It was hoped that all motorcyclists could take regular test within the limited specified period according to the regulations, and that those who did not pass the test could make improvement by mechanical adjustment and reparation in order to achieve the objective of “combining insurance and test in one,” and effectively improve the air quality of Kaohsiung City.
The program was implemented from Jun. 29, 2012 to Dec. 31, 2013. The overall work progress and work achievement rate are shown in Table 1, with the work performance of each item summarized as follows:
1. Management of auditing operation
In order to increase the control percentage of motorcycles being used, the program of 2012 carried out inspection of the motorcycles parked in arcade area and public space for 301,177 motorcycle-times, and sudden stopping of the running motorcycles for inspection for 7,517 motorcycle-times, with 1,248 motorcycle-times not passing the test. The program also carried out particulate pollutant test for 519 motorcycle-times, as well as motorcycle license plate identification and patrol inspection for 602,084 motorcycle-times. In 2013 patrol inspection of motorcycles on different streets, roads, lanes and alleys was carried out for 425,813 motorcycle-times, and sudden stopping of the running motorcycles on the road for inspection was carried out for 7,926 motorcycle-times, with 1,018 motorcycle-times not passing the test. Besides, particulate pollutant test was carried out for 609 motorcycle-times, and motorcycle license plate identification together with patrol inspection were carried out for 718,294 motorcycle-times.
2. Letter reply to and handling of citizens’ reports of motorcycles with black exhaust smoke
In 2012 there were 137,781 cases of motorcycles with black exhaust smoke reported by citizens. Among them, 23,633 cases passed the preliminary examination of photographs, and 17,314 cases passed the double examination of photographs. Finally, bonuses amounting to $4,994,100 were paid to the various reporters. In 2013 the number of cases of motorcycles with black exhaust smoke reported by citizens was decreased to 46,303 cases. Among them, 11,879 cases passed the preliminary examination of photographs, and 10,809 cases passed the double examination of photographs. Finally, bonuses totaling $3,221,400 were paid to the various reporters.
3. Estimation of performance of air pollution reduction
The air pollution reduction achieved in this program was mainly caused by improvement of those motorcycles being failed in regular exhaust test via mechanical adjustment and reparation, improvement of those motorcycles, which were stopped on the road and found being failed in exhaust test, via mechanical adjustment and reparation, as well as the statistical data of handing in for cancellation, registration for cancellation, report of revocation, report of suspension and theft of the old motorcycles with high degree of air pollution. According to the calculation results, in 2012 the NMHC emission reduction amount of the City was 883.1 tons, and CO emission reduction amount was 3,144.9 tons; and in 2013 the NMHC emission reduction amount was 2,381.3 tons, and CO emission reduction amount was 7,045.5 tons.
