內政部部務會議5月6日討論通過營建署所提之「新市鎮特定區實施整體開發前區內土地及建築物使用管制辦法」第六條修正案。修正內容除了放寬既有廠地所有權經移轉後,仍可申請增建臨時廠房,有利於縮短行政流程;並比照都市計畫法臺灣省施行細則工業區建蔽率規定,放寬新市鎮原有合法工廠廠地之建蔽率,由百分之六十至百分之七十,促進原有產業繼續留駐,健全新市鎮發展;此外,增建廠房的建築結構增加得採用鋼構造,讓原有工廠可配合產業設備升級的需要。
營建署表示,本次修正主要的目的,係考量目前新市鎮特定區實施整體開發前地區之合法工廠,因產經環境變遷、廠地空間需求增加,而現行建蔽率規定較為嚴格,於實施整體開發前無法進行擴廠或進行產業升級計畫,影響新市鎮產業發展,爰放寬建蔽率至百分之七十,並增加鋼構造之建築結構,將有效提升原有工廠繼續留駐新市鎮生產的意願,可加速新市鎮產業發展。
The structure could help Rio de Janeiro achieve its goal to host the first-ever zero-carbon Olympics

Solar City Tower What goes up must come down RAFAA
Several past Olympic hosts have promised greener events, but Rio de Janeiro could set a new standard with a solar-powered artificial waterfall building that operates day or night. The eye-catching Solar City Tower represents one of the standout entries in the International Architecture Competition for the Olympic Games 2016, according to TreeHugger.
The tower uses many solar panels and a solar power plant to produce energy for the Olympic village by day. Any excess energy goes toward pumping seawater up into the tower for storage, so that it can be released by night as a spectacular waterfall. The falling water would also help turbines create electricity for the nighttime village.
That neat energy storage scheme proposed by the Swiss firm RAFAA is similar to many that exist for solar power or other renewable energy today, except on a much larger scale.Anyone not impressed with either the energy solution or aesthetics can still enjoy social gatherings and events held within an indoor amphitheater, along with a cafeteria and shop situated beneath the waterfall. Bolder visitors can catch a breathtaking 360-degree view of the city from the observation decks and urban balcony, or even do a little bungee jumping from 90 stories up.
Rio de Janeiro has already promised the first zero-carbon Olympic Games, and started by planting 3,580 saplings last September to offset all the carbon emitted during the city's bid to host the games.
