The occurrence of natural disasters has been known to significantly affect our living environment. The consequences of natural disasters include interruption of traffic and communication, environmental pollution, physical and physiological impacts. Taiwan is an island with peculiar weather and geological features that renders natural disaster very common in Taiwan. The pollution after disasters increases significantly and has great impact on the environment. The recovery is also time consuming and requires significant resources. Thus, it is important to plan for disaster recovery to reduce the pollution impact and reduce the recovery time.
The Environmental Protection Administration (EPA) contracted National Kaohsiung First University of Science and Technology (NKFUST) to perform “Environmental Pollution Prevention Plan after Disaster and its Execution Mechanism” project. This project aims at promoting the effectiveness and reducing time of recovery work for natural disaster. With the above aims, this project has collected case studies from local and international information on pollution prevention, recovery and emergency plans. Standard operating procedures for local EPA on the pollution prevention are prepared. The monitoring indicators for environmental recovery work are also proposed.
This project has finished on schedule in the final report the following work: collected case studies from local and international information on pollution prevention, recovery and emergency plans; interview of local EPA officers with questionnaires, phone and/or direct visit to understand the capability of local government in disaster recovery; prepared standard operating procedures for local EPA on the pollution prevention for floor, wind, draught and air crash disasters; proposed monitoring indicators for environmental recovery work for floor, wind, draught and air crash disasters. This project also held three meetings with local EPA officers to explain how to use the standard operating procedures.
