[Reporter Cai Zhengmin/Miaoli Report] Miaoli County councilors Chen Guangxuan and Zeng Wenxue received a petition. Since there is no bid for the disposal of bottom slag after incinerators in Miaoli County, it is estimated that about 3,000 tons of bottom slag will be temporarily placed in the first landfill. The public is worried about whether it will affect the environment and the capacity of the Toufen landfill. They hope that the Miaoli County Environmental Protection Bureau will review the content of the bid and properly dispose of the bottom residue before it is marked.

The Environmental Protection Bureau of the Miaoli County Government pointed out that the Miaoli County incineration plant produces about 1,500 metric tons of bottom slag every month, and the bottom slag recycling project failed twice due to no bid from the manufacturer. At present, after reviewing and referring to the bidding conditions of other counties and cities, it has been restarted. Announcement on the Internet; during the transition period, the Toufen landfill site is first requested to provide a site for temporary bottom dregs. After the bidding is issued, the temporary bottom dregs will be transported back by the winning bidder.

Chen Guangxuan said that the villagers expressed concern that once the bottom dregs enter the Toufen landfill, it may affect the use of the Toufen landfill in the future, and they are even more worried that the bottom dregs will be disposed of in the Toufen landfill from now on.

After receiving the petition, he understood that he believed that the Environmental Protection Bureau of Miao County Government should adjust the content of the bid so that manufacturers would be willing to bid.

Zeng Wenxue said that due to the large amount of bottom slag produced by the incinerator, he learned that the processing fees and unprocessed fines of the Miaoli County Environmental Protection Bureau’s bids cannot keep up with other counties and cities. The processing fees are lower and the fines are higher. Make manufacturers feel that profits are low and unwilling to bid.

Chen Guangxuan and Zeng Wenxue emphasized that in order to avoid the recurrence of related problems, it is necessary for the Environmental Protection Bureau of Miao County Government to review.
