ified through examination to strengthen the maintenance ability of maintenance personnel on each

4. Proceed with duty station construction and assurance of construction quality

Key milestones and annual targets for the construction of Taipei-Songshan Duty Station include
the completion of vendor selection and contracting in March 2023, and start of construction in May
2023. NASC and the program manager (Construction and Planning Agency, Ministry of the Interior)

will strengthen supervision of builders’ contract performance with an emphasis on construction qual-
ity and site safety for assurance of construction quality and occupational safety. The contract period
for this project will run for up to 1,560 days, and will face unfavorable factors such as labor shortages
in the construction market and fluctuations in material prices. Height restrictions for construction

work at the airport will also become a factor as more floors are built. NASC will serve as a mediator
between the construction team and the relevant agencies to remove all obstacles and avoid con-
struction delays. NASC is actively moving forward with hangar construction at the Taipei-Songshan
Duty Station so that they can be completed as soon as possible. Blackhawk helicopters can then be

stationed at Songshan Airport ahead of schedule to upgrade air rescue capabilities in the northern
region, and safeguard life and property.
