	Pinglin Township - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Pinglin (坪林) is a rural township in south-eastern Taipei County, Taiwan.
		It is in the mountain area connecting to the Yilan County on the east coast.
		Pinglin is part of the water district of Taipei area as the Feitsui Dam is located here, so land development is restricted.

	Pinglin vote sparks political spat (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		Pinglin residents conducted an advisory referendum on Saturday, reporting that 98 percent of the voters want the Taipei-Yilan Freeway to include a Pinglin exit, when completed.
		Cabinet spokesman Lin Chia-lung, however, said that the construction of a Pinglin exit on the National Freeway is not a regional issue and thus cannot be decided by a regional referendum.
		DPP legislative caucus whip Chen Chi-mai on Sunday said the effect of Pinglin advisory referendum was only within the local township level and cannot override the national environmental evaluation regulations -- which could only be altered by a national referendum.

		The EPA decided to open the road to public traffic through Pinglin of Taipei County after the Peiyi (Taipei-Ilan) Freeway is inaugurated in June or July.

		It has been levying a surcharge on the water fee as feedback to the residents at Pinglin, at a rate of distributing between NT$30 million and NT$40 million per month to people living in the area for their support to help keep the water source clean.

		Along-running between residents of the Taipei County township of Pinglin (坪林鄉) and government agencies involved in the construction of the Taipei-Ilan Freeway (北宜高), or Route 5 as it is also known, may have abated in recent weeks but the fallout has left many in the town rather frustrated.
		According to MOTC the road could not be opened to the general public because Pinglin sits in the middle of the watershed that feeds the nearby Feitsui Reservoir (翡翠水庫), which is used to supply a large percentage of Taipei City residents with tap water.
		The biggest threat to the safety of Taipei's water was, according to the new EPA report, uncontrolled land use in the Pinglin area.

		Fielding questions at the Legislative Yuan, Hsu said he would suggest that the administration not give the green light to the opening of the Pinglin interchange if the government is committed to protecting a good water catchment area and the nearby natural environment.
		The issue of whether the Pinglin interchange should be opened has been at the heart of a political tug-of-war which has escalated from local to national level over the past several months, as opening the interchange would obviously boost Pingling's tourist numbers and consequently promote commercial development there, inevitably leading to pollution of the reservoir.
		Because of Pinglin's location in a catchment area, its commercial development is severely restricted -- to the great displeasure of many of its residents who hope the interchange linking the village and the Peiyi Freeway will boost the local economy.

	A Tale of Two Reservoirs -Greater Taipei's Water Woes
		Deep within Feitsui's water catchment zone, in Shangte Village in Pinglin Rural Township, work is pressing feverishly ahead on the construction of the Taipei-Ilan Freeway, one of the projects in the Six-Year National Development Plan.
		The Taipei-Ilan Freeway is to have an intersection at Pinglin, and in future the many tourists entering and leaving the area by this route may place an even greater burden on the Feitsui Reservoir's water catchment area.
		The planning authorities solemnly swear that there are clear records for the flow rates of all these rivers, and that a reservoir at Pinglin would certainly allow enough water through for the downstream Feitsui Reservoir, only holding back water which now goes unused, to supply Taipei County.

		Environmental monitoring and impacts since the opening up of access routes, as well as the discrepancy in information submitted by Taipei City Government and the developer, should be cleared up within a month.
