摘要

Singapore—Taiwanese state-owned CPC has been given 10 days by the Kaohsiung city government’s Environmental Protection Bureau to respond to charges of waste water pollution from its 220,000 b/d Kaohsiung refinery, or face having the plant shut for inspections, a senior CPC official said June 5. “As of today, CPC has yet to receive formal notification from the Kaohsiung EPB. But once it does, it will have to provide an explanation to the bureau within 10 days from the date of the notification,” said CPC Vice President Chen Ming-hui.
