Air pollution control is one of the important works to protect environment. Therefore, the Environmental Protection Administration (EPA) has used a portion of air pollution control fund to establish the air quality purification area （ hereinafter called the Aquapu Area） for improving the air quality of Taiwan. Since then, EPA has approved a total of 930 Aquapu Areas covering an area of about 1,758 hectares and the bike trail length of about 293 kilometers in total. The content of this project is a continuous work to provide the inventory, assessment and monitoring related works of the “air quality purification area” for assisting the EPA to establish a quality living environment in Taiwan.
According to the total area of Aquapu Areas, it estimates that Aquapu Areas can decrease about 903.55 tons of particulate matter pollution,67.00 ~ 133.95 tons of PM2.5, 13,148.87 tons of sulfur oxide (SOx),2,997.17 tons of nitrogen oxides (NOx), 3,867.30 tons of carbon
monoxide (CO), 40,431.00 tons of carbon dioxide (CO2),16,875.60~17,578.70 tons of ozone (O3), 298.84 tons of PAN and other air pollutants. Besides, it can decrease environmental pollution, such as waste and noise pollution, improve island heat effects, soil and water
conservation, ecological conservation, species diversity and disaster prevention as well as providing quality green space and leisure life. In the end, it will improve the economic and environmental value.
The outcomes of this project include (1) the revision of existing guidelines and criteria used as the bases for the SIP evaluation work. (2)completion of on-site inventory, monitoring and assessment works. (3)updating related information regularly, updating and maintaining Aquapu Area website and plant nursery website in order to provide the
latest status in implementation as well as to improve the performance and management efficiency. (4) updating and replenishing information of existing Green Network of Bicycle Trails website to provide cyclists with convenient information and a fast inquiry system. (5) inviting and arranging evaluators for on-site visitation. (6) continued carbon survey,
monitoring, and maintenance of selected carbon sink areas. Our working group have provided EPA all required administrative assistance, such as evaluation of Aquapu Areas and plant nurseries in 2015;maintained the Aquapu Area electronic information system; designed
promotional materials; held three promotional activities. Asides, we also have provided other related administrative assistances.
Our working group has assisted EPA to achieve and maintain the quality standard of Aquapu Areas over the years, continued to expand the Aquapu Areas (13.87 hectares of new approved sites, 4 newly completed sites) to strengthen its carbon sequestration, air purification
and other related functions. The Aquapu Areas website will also provide information to the general public especially related to green spaces and site locations as well as their leisure and educational functions.
