6. In addition to forest conservation and hillside soil conservation, remedy the whole river basin, check earth flow, and ensure the security of downstream flood control facilities.
7. Due to the limitation of budget and labors, the 1999 “Regulations Governing the Maintenance of Taiwan Provincial Drainage Facilities?was not fully implemented and operated. Moreover, due to a lack of water conservancy facilities, the planning and management should be expedited to avoid possible floods.
8. The government has put in two or three decades of efforts and invested more than 100 billion NT dollars in the Taipei area flood prevention projects and other branches remediation works. Most middle and downstream rivers have reached the 200-year-flood protection criteria, whereas the middle and up-stream of Keelung River, the up-stream of Sindian River and Dahan River, Jingmei River’s upper stream north of Shenkeng, and the whole Sansia River, have not been remedied and should be taken care of soon so that the whole river basin reaches the same protection standard.
