INDUSTRIAL WASTE USED AS LANDFILL UNDER GUISE OF RECYCLING|"再利用"申請回填 農地.魚塭屢見廢棄物

Domestic waste is often found in agricultural land or fish farms. This waste is often applied for backfilling in the name of re-cycling. However, this waste brings environmental risks. If not handled properly, it is likely to turn up in many places. ==TAINAN RESIDENT== Tainan is a fish breeding area, where everywhere you can find fish farms. However, in recent years the ponds in which these fish are bred and raised, have become part of the waste industry by using backfill to build them. In this pond in Tainan's Hsuehchia, after the current landlord took over, he has not raised fish, and local residents, suffer from dust, and hope he will clear the area as soon as possible. When the weather is bad there is an unpleasant, sour smell, I can't stand it. My chest feels tight, my heart can't take it. Residents worry about the health risks. Environmental groups took samples and found that the landfill material was similar to that of what was recently uncovered at the Tainan Madou fish ponds. They think it is a new type of crime, using crushed waste as backfill to increase the difficulty of checking the origin of the waste. ==CHAO RUI-GUANG, Tainan Community University Environmental Team Researcher== We took a sample here and discovered it was the same as the sample that we took at Madou, the heavy metal content of nickel and chromium are similar and exceed the standard for soil, and the values are all similar. Under the microscope, there is also glass fiber, so we have to wonder if the two sites are linked. ==LIN CHIEN-SAN, Dep-Dir. Tainan City Govt. EPB == There is a link between these so-called industries we have reasonable doubt and evidence from the researchers to do investigate. Environmental groups want the adoption of waste legislation to amend the draft law to increase criminal responsibility for this type of pollution, to eliminate the waste industry from using waste as landfill under the disguise of recycling. Industries which produce waste have to take individual and joint responsibility, for the protection of safety for agricultural and fishing land so that the future generation can have some clean land. TRANSLATED BY：CLARE LEAR 台南是養殖重鎮，到處都可以看到一口口的魚塭。不過，原本生產魚貨的池子，這幾年卻成了部份業者回填廢棄物的最佳去處，在台南學甲的這處魚塭，現任地主接手後，沒有養過一天的魚，來往的居民，飽受粉塵之苦，希望能儘快清除。 ==台南居民== 天氣要是不好 它會有一些臭酸味 我在這聞到會受不了 胸口很悶 心臟受不了 居民煩惱健康有風險，環保團體採樣檢測，發現填埋的物質跟日前台南麻豆魚塭回填的廢棄物性質接近，擔憂是新型態的犯罪手法，將事業廢棄物攪碎，增加查緝難度。 ==台南社大環境小組研究員 晁瑞光== 我們在這邊取的樣 就意外的發現說 跟我們麻豆那邊取的樣 重金屬篩檢 鎳跟鉻都差不多 超過土壤管制標準 而且數值差不多 而且在顯微鏡下看 一樣也都是玻璃纖維 所以我們不得不懷疑說 這兩場有一個關聯性 ==台南環保局副局長 林健三== 但是所謂的產業之間 他們互相有連結 這個是我們可以去做些 合理的懷疑跟舉證 學甲那邊也有這一種 這我們也會去查 要如何杜絕事業廢棄物以"再利用"之名到處氾濫，環保團體認為要透過廢棄物清理法的修正草案，來加重汙染者刑責，生產廢棄物的事業單位也要負起連帶責任，才能保障農漁用地安全，留給下一代淨土。 記者 林燕如 許中熹 陳忠峰 台南報導
