This project is a continuous regulatory or control plan that was executed 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 involved expanding the economic incentive strategy to include air pollution fee collection, rewards, and subsidies. The above stages were performed to enhance current understandings of the pollution characteristics and emissions situation of stationary pollution sources in the county and assist in the formulation of air pollution regulatory strategies and action plans for stationary pollution sources, thereby improving and protecting the county’s air quality.
This plan was executed over 12 months from March 23, 2013, to March 22, 2014. 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 reviewing online emission declarations; auditing industrial parks; and organizing various promotional information sessions.
During the plan execution period, 2,667 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, 37 businesses were inspected. The inspection results were inputted into the stationary pollution source system and communicated to the Environmental Protection Administration’s Emissions Volume Management Project, after which the information in the TEDS version 8.0 was updated. Furthermore, statistics of the annual air pollutant emissions volume during the project execution period were as follows: particulate pollutants or matter: 2,189.415 metric tons per annum; sulfur oxides: 3,674.449 metric tons per annum; nitrogen oxides: 6,139.259 metric tons per annum; and volatile organic compounds: 5,873.361 metric tons per annum.
The key tasks for this year were to inspect and regulate industrial parks. Thus, 322 businesses in the Guanyin Industrial Park and Linkou Industrial Park were selected for on-site inspections. Currently, of 344 businesses in the Guanyin Industrial Park, 279 have been inspected, for a coverage rate of 81.1%. Of the 53 businesses in the Linkou Industrial Park, 43 have been inspected, for a coverage rate of 81.13%. Considering these particular sites, we recommend that the 8 public and private areas recently added to regulated sites should be included in air pollution fee regulations and required to apply for operation permits.
Other specific achievements include the completion of 1,464 permit-related manufacturing process inspections, the issuing of 961 permits, the performance of 220 manufacturing process permit audits, the identification of 1,401 businesses liable for air pollution fee collection, the successful pursuit of 438 cases of outstanding fees (totaling NT$17,357,567), the execution of on-site air pollution fee audits at 567 businesses, the completion of an air pollution fee review for the fourth quarter of 2012 to the third quarter of 2013, and relevant verification, acceptance, and settlement. The content and results of various operations are detailed in the sections of this report.
We recommend that more progressive methods, as listed below, be adopted for plan execution.
• Enhance bituminous coal regulations and increase 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 recommend that 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 volumes can provide a basis for the planning of other pollution regulations.
