Stakeholders involved: Employees, Park Enterprises, Neighboring Communities(Non-govern mental Organizations and the Public), Government Agencies

2. Good Neighbor Relations and Environmental Co-prosperity

The CTSP Bureau continuously focuses on park openness, community co-prosperity, and environmental sustainability, collaborating with park enterprises, local associations, and community residents to promote activities such as opening green and landscaped areas to the public, net-zero green living, community cleanups, and beach cleanups, deepening the

connection between the park and the local community while guiding the public to practice waste reduction, plastic reduction, and low-carbon actions in their daily lives..

The Houli Park Cherry Blossom Park has been comprehensively planned by the CTSP Bureau since 2009, with park vendor Weili Machinery joining hands to invest in its construction and maintenance, progressively developing it into a characteristic park that combines ecological landscapes, greening, and recreational functions. The park is planted with over 600 cherry blossom trees and over 500 large arbor trees, and is equipped with facilities such as ecological ponds, cherry blossom hills, scenic trails, and detention ponds, shaping a friendly and natural park landscape. From February 22 to 23, 2025, the CTSP Bureau held the 2025 Spring Tour in CTSP—Green Arts and Cherry Blossom Music Festival, combining performances, interactive experiences, local organic agricultural products, biochar, and low-carbon product promotion, alongside giving away cherry blossom seedlings to convey the philosophy of net-zero green living and coexistence with nature.

In terms of community environment maintenance, the CTSP Bureau cooperated with the Kendi Village Community Development Association of Huwei Township, Yunlin County, to organize community cleanup activities. On June 6, 2024, and May 29, 2025, park vendors, local residents, and Bureau colleagues were invited to jointly clean up streets, green spaces, and the surrounding environment of the park, with more than 50 participants taking part each year each year, demonstrating the collaborative power of the park and the community in safeguarding the environment.

In terms of marine conservation, responding to the Executive Yuan's "Salute to the Seas" policy, the CTSP Bureau collaborated with the Guike Community Development Association of Da'an District to conduct annual beach cleanups at the Da'an Guike Eco Park. On September 7, 2024, approximately 300 people participated, removing nearly 870 kilograms of coastal waste; on September 9, 2025, approximately 400 people participated, collecting nearly 750 kilograms of trash. Through sustained annual action, CTSP continuously promotes plastic reduction, environmental education, and marine conservation, realizing the sustainable goal of co-prosperity between the park and local communities..

2. Environmental Protection Tracking and Supervision

In accordance with the Environmental Impact Assessment Act, the competent authority for the target industry is required to track development activities in progress or during use after completion. Therefore, the National Science and Technology Council established the Environmental Impact Assessment Tracking Committee for Science Park Development Activities, composed of expert scholars, park vendors, and agency representatives, which conducted 2 tracking meetings at this Bureau from 2024 to 2025.

Before development, all CTSP parks submit environmental impact assessment documents for review in accordance with the Environmental Impact Assessment Act, and actively communicate with all sectors by holding environmental impact assessment briefings according to procedures. Upon passing the review, implementation strictly follows the assessment documents and committed items. The Taichung, Houli, and Erlin parks have each established an environmental protection supervision committee based on the environmental protection supervision establishment guidelines. The Taichung Park committee includes a total of 28 external members, consisting of 5 expert scholars in fields such as environmental engineering, soil and water conservation, and health risk, 5 non-governmental organization representatives, 16 local village chiefs, 1 local competent authority representative, and 1 vendor representative. The Houli Park committee includes a total of 20 external members, consisting of 7 expert scholars in fields such as environmental engineering, soil and water conservation, environmental safety, and public health, 7 district and village chiefs from the park area, 4 additionally appointed members, 1 local competent authority representative, and 1 vendor representative.

The Erlin Park committee includes a total of 14 external members, consisting of 5 expert scholars in fields such as environmental engineering, soil, land administration, and environmental safety, 5 non-governmental organization representatives, and 4 representatives from relevant agencies and units, thereby enhancing the broad participation of environmental supervision and regularly holding supervision meetings to continuously track park development status.
