Since the Fund was established, the monthly recycling volume of PET bottles has on average exceeded the reported business volume of firms and its accounting records show that the monthly recycling volume of PET bottles has been as high as 134%. Recycling rates in excess of 100% are partially due to firms trying to evade fee recycling fees by under-reporting production volumes.
The EPA is currently developing several measures that begin with broadening sources of income and reducing expenditures. The EPA has also commenced research and assessment of its effectiveness. In terms of income and expenditure, the EPA is considering a number of measures that include strengthening auditing, increasing the proportion of recycling incentive funds borne by the firms from 70% to 100%, adjusting fee rates, and developing collection from the source, i.e. raw material manufacturers and importers.
Strengthening audit activities is a key response measure, and the first stage of auditing was completed at the end of July. The EPA and an accounting agency conducted spot checks on operational volumes reported by 100 firms. They discovered that one bottled water vendor in Central Taiwan underreported 80% of its business volume, amounting to NT$4.2 million in unpaid funds. In addition to tracking down and collecting the underpaid funds, the EPA is also seeking fines of up to three times the underpaid amount. In addition, the second stage of auditing work has also begun. The EPA and tax collection and auditing authorities at all levels are currently engaged in thoroughly investigating cases for which evidence clearly suggests false reporting.
In terms of adjusting the Fund’s fee rates, although trust fund income could be rapidly increased, the EPA is not considering this method for the time being as it would also raise the fee burden on firms.
Considering current auditing resources and existing technology, collection at the source should be the most effective method for increasing the Fund’s income. The EPA is currently developing related procedural regulations.
In addition to investigating new revenue sources, the EPA is also searching for ways to reduce expenditures. These include reducing subsidies and restricting recycling volume. Although the former can effectively reduce trust fund expenditures, it is hard to find the balance point. The latter approach can effectively control the budget, but it could also destabilize the recycling system. These measures are therefore still undergoing assessment.
In addition to the above measures, the EPA is also planning to use other fund sources to make up for current losses. These plans call for a transfer of funds from the PET Bottle Deposit Fund, formerly managed by the Carbonated Beverage Association, or from the Central Government’s Emergency Reserve Fund.

7 EPA Takes Steps to Improve PET Bottle Recycling System
摘要
The PET Bottle Recycling Fund has suffered losses to date of about NT$770 million. The reasons for this include an imbalanced rate structure false reporting by firms and an inadequate apportionment of funds. In response, the EPA is currently developing measures that begin with increasing income and reducing expenditures. In addition to strengthening auditing work, the EPA is also considering approaches that include collection at the source, reducing subsidies, restricting recycling quantity and using other fund sources. Since the Resource Recycling Management Fund was established in June 1997, the income and expenditures of the PET Bottle Recycling Fund have been out of balance. At the end of August 1998, the Fund was overdrawn NT$770 million. Three main factors contribute to this situation: an imbalance between subsidy rate and recycling fee rate structures, a recycling rate that has been exceeding 100% of production volume, and an inadequate apportionment of funds since the Recycling Fund’s establishment on July 1, 1998.
