N2 - 'Drinking Water Management Regulations' in the ROC need to be examined and revised in order to meet local environmental and domestic requirements. In making these changes certain factors, including health risks, environmental monitoring, treatment technologies, cost-effectiveness analysis, and social impacts, must be taken into consideration.
