The implementation period of ” Management and Development Project for Construction Project Pollutions(2020)” is 12 months long, which is from April 3, 2019 to April 2, 2020. During implementation period, the total number of new construction sites reported is 4,306, the number of new reported construction sites inspected is 3,854, and the total number of construction sites inspected (including new and existing sites) is 4,999. In terms of inspection proportion for different types of construction projects, the percentages of construction sites inspected to construction sites reported for type 1 and type 2 construction projects are 93.9% and 92.8% respectively, which have met the project requirements. This project has carried out 10,033 guidance inspections, including 645 holiday inspections, and has assisted the Environmental Protection Bureau in executing 336 inspections of construction sites.
As regards the pollution emission reduction, the total amount of TSP emission reduction is 6,087.5 tons and the overall reduction rate of particulate matter for the construction sites inspected is 66.5%, which is slightly higher on reduction rate compared to the same period in 2019. With respect to the proportion of construction sites in compliance with Management Regulations for Construction Project Air Pollution Control Facilities, 94.0% and 93.8% of Type 1 and Type 2 construction sites inspected meet the requirements of the above-mentioned regulation.
With respect to the punishment and follow-up improvement, the numbers of punishment cases for construction projects in 2020 that violated Air Pollution Control Act and Noise Control Act were 48 and 1 respectively, and they were fined a total of NT$2,132,500; the number of punishment cases for construction projects during January to March 2021 period that violated Air Pollution Control Act was 19, and they were fined a total of NT$613,500. To reach the goal of effective control, this project followed up the improvement progress of the construction sites that violated related regulations in 2020 and found that they were all mended with an improvement percentage of 100%.
As for air pollution control fee collection for construction projects, there were a total of 4,325 applications in 2020 and 1,088 applications during January to March 2021 period, and the payable amount were NT$151,510,701 and NT$21,096,064 respectively, which were similar to those in the past two years.
The 2020 environmental protection educational propaganda for construction sites was held at Multimedia Conference Room 205 on second floor of Pingtung County Hall North Building (old building) on January 28, 2021 and 114 participants from 90 construction project owners or contractors attended. Professor Yi-Lin Wu was invited to give lucid explanations about Management Regulations for Construction Project Air Pollution Control Facilities, noise control practices for construction sites and related regulations for construction projects, and then Manager Shun- Yuan Hsieh of Century Engineering Consultant CO.,LTD disseminated regulations about Management Guidelines for Enforcing Air Pollution and Noise Control of Public Construction Projects and Air Pollution Acts during Designated Air Quality Deterioration Alert Periods, and had a very detailed exposition on construction equipment control strategy.
This project implementation focuses on dredging project control. There were 57 dredging projects in Pintung County in 2020 that removed a total of 27,610 thousand tons of soil/sand/gravel and caused about 1,287.2 tons of TSP emission. This 2020 project has achieved remarkable results and the highlights are as follows: the ratio of environmental protection cost to project cost of major dredging projects increases over 2020 from 17.8% to 50.8% by counseling project owners on designating enough budgets before starting dredging; this proj... |
