In terms of the dispute between local and central government authorities over trash disposal fee rates, the draft stipulates that these fee rates are to be set at the local level. To avoid further debate, the structure of trash disposal costs and proportion of these costs reflected in the fee rates each year were added to the draft. In addition, local governments will be required to establish a special fund specifically for trash disposal fees. If administrative authorities collect fees in violation of the law, they will not be eligible for facility and equipment upgrading fund subsidies from the EPA.
In terms of industrial waste controls, the principles of “waste life-span liability” and burden of proof were added to the draft. If industrial waste generated by a firm cannot be properly collected, treated or reused, regardless of whether the firm had retained a qualified waste disposal company to handle the waste material, the firm is ultimately liable for disposal, pollution collection improvement and fee burden.
The draft also strengthens controls on the reporting, tracking and improvement (made within a limited period of time) of industrial waste. Of these, stipulations on the use of an industrial waste online reporting system (ORS) and global positioning systems (GPS) were added to the draft.
The draft also added the principle of burden of proof. If information reported by a firm is determined by the competent authority to be false in type or quantity of industrial waste, the firm must furnish evidence required by the authority that proves contrary, otherwise the waste material will be considered as improperly treated.
The EPA also revised related articles to accommodate controls on the import/export, cross-boundary transport and transshipment of waste material as part of the Basel Convention. As there are numerous controlled items listed in the Basel Convention and by the OECD that are not considered hazardous waste substances in Taiwan, the new articles will add trans-boundary movement control mechanisms to general industrial waste substances. Their scope and regulatory controls will be set separately.
A unique aspect of the draft is the addition of several penalties and criminal responsibilities were also added to serve as a deterrent. According to the draft, industrial waste that is improperly treated or reused resulting in death, personal injury or risk to human health that causes sickness is punishable with imprisonment of seven years to life, three to ten years, and less than three years respectively. In terms of trash disposal fee payment, articles were added to give fines a legal basis.
Although discussion participants cited insufficient enforcement personnel as administrative authorities’ biggest problem, making laws more strict is not the answer. The addition of criminal responsibility, however, is the right approach as it serves as a deterrent and allows for judicial personnel resources to support environmental enforcement.
As there were few points of contention during the discussions, the EPA will complete the details of the revisions and submit the draft to the Executive Yuan as soon as possible. , 欄位年度的內容是1999 , 欄位月份的內容是2 , 欄位卷的內容是2 , 欄位期的內容是4 , 欄位順序的內容是1 , 欄位倒序的內容是2 , 欄位分類的內容是waste , 欄位標題2的內容是Industrial Waste Controls to be Significantly Tightened , 欄位檔案位置的內容是print/V2/V2-04 。
