Abstract

These Regulations require the user who gains an average amount of 300 cubic meters per day or more of wastewater (sewage) or effluent water from the sewer system for self-use as reclaimed water ("self-user") to submit the reclaimed water usage plan to the competent authority of the municipality or county (city) or the competent authority governing the Specific Area ("Competent Authority") to apply for the use permit of wastewater (sewage) or effluent water. The Competent Authority may impose restrictions or order the self-user to apply for the permit. The Regulations specify the matters to be stated in the reclaimed water usage plan. After approval of the Plan, a water permit shall be issued, which shall, among other things, specify the water intake construction, for which the self-user shall submit the completion report and the inspection and maintenance manual to the Competent Authority for inspection. The Competent Authority may revoke the use permit in certain circumstances.
