Standards for Determining Specific Items and Scope of Environmental Impact Assessments for Development Activities. Article 14

Where one of the following circumstances applies with respect to the development of flood control and drainage systems, an environmental impact assessment shall be required:I. River channel modification project. This does not apply to such modifications as occur naturally.II. River channel dredging projects that extend for 5 kilometers or more along a river, or dredging projects in a single river and its tributaries of an cumulative length of 5 kilometers or more, or dredging projects in a single river system of an cumulative length of 15 kilometers or more. However, the length of any dredging projects that have already been subjected to environmental impact assessment review or have been completed shall not be included in the cumulative length.III. Construction or expansion of flood control and drainage systems or irrigation projects including flood control and drainage systems (excluding height increase and strengthening projects), and one of the following conditions applies:A. The site is located in a national park. However, this restriction shall not apply when the applied-for extension length is less than 500 meters, and the national park competent authority and industry competent authority have granted their consent.B. The site is located in a wildlife refuge or a major wildlife habitat. However, this restriction shall not apply when the site is located in a major wildlife habitat, the applied-for extension length is less than 500 meters, and the major wildlife habitat competent authority and industry competent authority have granted their consent.C. The site is located in an important wetland. However, this restriction shall not apply when the applied-for extension length is less than 500 meters, and an important wetland competent authority and industry competent authority have granted their consent.D. The site is located in a nature preserve approved and announced under the Taiwan Coastal Area Natural Environment Protection Plan. However, this restriction shall not apply when the applied-for extension length is less than 500 meters, and the competent authority in charge of the nature reserve approved and announced under the Taiwan Coastal Area Natural Environment Protection Plan and industry competent authority have granted their consent.E. A single drainage waterway extends along a river for 10 kilometers or has a cumulative length of 20 kilometers or more. However, the length of completed drainage channels shall not be included in the cumulative length.F. River embankment projects that extend for 10 kilometers or more along a river, or embankment projects in a single river and its tributaries of an cumulative length of 20 kilometers or more, or embankment projects in a single river system of an cumulative length of 30 kilometers or more. However, the length of a completed river embankment shall not be included in the cumulative length.IV. A flood detention pond project for flood control and drainage, and the applied-for development is 100 hectares or more. However, this restriction shall not apply when disused salt fields or fish ponds are used for development, or the site is located in a first-class groundwater control area.
