5. Sewerage Construction and Management
(1) Sewerage-related regulation issues

Three sewage-related autonomous regulations based on the Sewerage Law and Local Gov-

ernment Act were reviewed in 2022, and 5 administrative rules were established, including public
sewage treatment plant data transmission, sewerage public notices, engineering quality, occupa-
tional safety, and pipeline maintenance. Additionally, we revised and compiled 3 technical manu-
als related to sewerage for various county and city governments to follow and implement.

(2) Conducting seminars, education, and dissemination
Inviting experts and scholars from various sectors, including industry, government, and academia,

to jointly explore wastewater treatment technology and recycled water development topics, we or-
ganized five seminars in 2022, such as Sewerage Construction and Denitrification Technology. Under
compliance with the COVID-19 epidemic prevention policy, two training sessions were completed
in the Northern region, and one training session was completed in each of the Central and Southern

regions, with 250 people trained and qualified in 2022. These participants must be qualified as water
pipe installation technicians or sewage drainage facility installation technicians in advance

To make people understand the policies and concepts of sewerage and water reclamation and to

raise public awareness of sewerage and related facilities, we have published "Digging Up. The Urban
Water Impact - A Documentary of Sewer Construction" and "Sewerage. Water Recycling Journal." We
have also organized a "From contaminated Water to useful Water: Discovering Usage Water in Daily
Life" four-panel story contest to encourage public participation and enhance public awareness of the
importance of sewerage and recycled water.
