On March 1998, there were a total of 15 million motor vehicles in Taiwan of which motorcycles accounted for two-thirds, the principle source of air pollution in Taiwans urban areas. In response to severe environmental loading, Taiwan began in the 1990s to adopt the world’s strictest vehicle emission controls that include the announcement of first- through fourth-stage-standards. However, as vehicles built prior to second-stage-standards meet only first-stage-standards and since second-stage-standards did not provide for the elimination of first-stage-standard vehicles, it is not surprising that the effectiveness of air improvement efforts has been severely impaired.
According to current data, the proportion of first- and second-stage-standard vehicles is as follows:
1.Gas vehicles (cars and trucks): Second-stage-standards were implemented on July 1, 1990. At the end of 1995, the proportion of first- to second-stage-standard vehicles was 61:39. In March, 1998, there were a total of 4.82 million gas vehicles in Taiwan of which first-stage-standard cars accounted for 14% or 660,000 vehicles. It is estimated that by 2000, with the suspension in use of leaded gasoline, the number of first-stage-standard vehicles will sharply decline.
2.Diesel vehicles (cars and trucks): Second-stage-standards were implemented on July 1, 1993. At the end of 1995, the proportion of first to second-stage-standard vehicles was 60.8:39.2. In March 1998, there were a total of 511,000 diesel vehicles in Taiwan of which first-stage-standard vehicles accounted for 33.3% or 170,000 vehicles.
3.Motorcycles: Second-stage-standards were implemented on July 1, 1990 while third-stage-standards were implemented in January, 1998. At the end of 1995, the proportion of first- to second-stage-standard motorcycles was 59:41. In March 1998, there were about 10 million motorcycles in Taiwan of which first- through third-stage standard motorcycles accounted for 3 million (30%), 6.7 million (66%) and 420,000 (4%) motorcycles respectively.
As the proportion of first-stage-standard vehicles is still high, the EPA on August 31 decided to develop a plan to encourage owners to upgrade older high polluting vehicles.
The plan calls for the “vehicle upgrade subsidy” to be significantly raised to entice more owners to upgrade older motorcycles. According to the plan, subsidy funds would be raised from NT$400 to between NT$2,000 and NT$3,000 per vehicle with air pollution funds, discarded motor vehicle collection funds and motorcycle manufacturers/importers sharing in the costs.
Apart from intensifying motorcycle emissions checks, the EPA also plans in January of 1999 to conduct regular tests on diesel vehicles and local environmental authorities will conduct strict tests and levy heavy fines to hasten the elimination of older high polluting vehicles.
Another focus of the plan is the use of remote sensing technology to pinpoint vehicles with excessive emissions. Information gathered using this method could serve as a reference for pinpointing and investigating high polluting models for recall. As of June, the EPA had already conducted 1.8 million remote tests of which about 10% were found to have excessive emissions and were subsequently notified to have their vehicles serviced and tested. Remote testing work will be conducted at three locations this year and future expansion plans will depend on the results of this work. Vehicles that spew thick streams of black smoke or “diesel inkfish” will find it particularly hard to evade such modern controls. The broad regulatory approach of this plan bodes well for the elimination of many older high polluting vehicles. ， 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air ， 欄位標題2的內容是EPA Boosts Efforts to Phase Out Older High Polluting Motor Vehicles ， 欄位檔案位置的內容是print/V2/V2-04 。
