In July 2014, an underground propylene gas pipeline in Kaohsiung leaked and a subsequent explosion caused many deaths and injuries. To obtain data about the emission of hazardous air pollutants (HAPs), the Environmental Protection Administration incorporates the control of HAPs emission into the annual assessment. The Environmental Protection Department of the New Taipei City Government has launched the “Tightening the Control of Specific Pollution Sources inNew Taipei City in 2015” project to establish and control the HAPs emission hot zones and primary emission sources in the jurisdiction. A specific pollution source and substance database has been established to monitor specified regions and unknown emission targets, and to audit and inspect factories found to have abnormal emissions or other environmental threats. Potential pollution problems are analyzed and compared to control the pollution source distribution and changes in the amount of pollutant concentration.

Sinjhuang area and others. The results of the inspections are linked horizontally to other relevant projects to tighten control on illegal operations and violations. Additional air pollution fee can be imposed, approval criteria can be changed and higher standards can be established.
With respect to specific pollution, the Nan Ya Plastics Shulin plant has been treated as a specific target and FID and five-gas detectors have been used along with GPS positioning to perform a grid type of inspection. The inspection results showed leakage, due to improper sealing, of the tank of a container truck at the petrochemical manufacturing site. However, no obvious pollution within the sensitive zone, 3km around the perimeter of the site, was found.
Emergency procedures for the handling of air pollution incidents and countermeasures have been established. Instruments and equipment is available for field inspection and analysis and sampling can be conducted without delay should an incident occur. During the period of this project, three factory fire countermeasure operations took place. However, there has been no major air pollution incidents in recent years.
To enhance technology transfer and the exchange of knowledge and experience between our colleagues, extensive education and training in the use of monitoring instruments and the database is carried out. Furthermore, seminars conducted by experts are arranged where all the aspects of the project are discussed and recommendations are made that will allow the primary objective of the project to be achieved --the prevention of hazardous pollution incidents.
