To enhance the water quality of Dajia River Basin and environment of Guguan area, Taichung City Government has promoted the sewerage infrastructure of Guguan. The construction project, which has been awarded and is expected to complete within 2 years, will largely improve the water quality of Dajia River and the living environment of local residents.
Director of Water Resources Bureau Fan Shi-yi expressed that three water reclamation centers located in Lishan, Huanshan and Shigang Dam in Dajia River Basin had been completed. To further improve the water quality of the water resource protection area in Dajia River Basin, the city government already proactively obtained a total construction budget of around NTD18 million, which is for the systems of both the Shihwun Creek settlement and Guguan Scenic Area, from the central government. The water reclamation center construction and household-to-sewer connection project will be officially launched this year.
The Water Resources Bureau explained that, as the project would take place nearby the lands and tribe of indigenous people, the Bureau already received Hrung tribe’s consent last year. The water reclamation center will be built at the entrance of Guguan Scenic Area and its appearance is designed to integrate with local culture and scenery in order to enhance the imagery of local indigenous people. Upon completion of the water reclamation center, the sewage treatment project of Dajia River Basin will come to an end. The Bureau will hold construction explanatory session successively, enabling local citizens to better understand the construction of sewerage infrastructure. (1/12*16)* Water Resources Bureau
