溫泉合法化之初探研究-以寶來不老溫泉區為例

2001 年10月交通部觀光局茂林國家風景區成立，報請交通部核定「茂林國家風景區寶來、不老溫泉地區旅館及民宿業者合法化方案」，希望能在3 年6個月內，協助當地業者完成合法化程序。2003年2 月24 日，行政院核示辦理輔導茂管處範圍內既存經營旅館事業及民宿之合法化作業。合法化作業進行至2009 年，適逄莫拉克風災，寶來地區嚴重受創，對寶來地區溫泉業者合法化帶來巨大衝擊，相關單位將溫泉合法化輔導期限延長至2012 年6 月，時間將至，再度因業者陳情，交通部核定寶來、不老地區合法化方案延至最後期限2014 年8 月30日止。至今，寶來、不老地區尚在進行合法化作業者僅存14 家，在環評、水保及聯審都通過情形下，依然無法順利完成土地使用編定變更。本研究以深入訪談法，針對寶來不老溫泉與其發展現況、合法化過程中業者所面臨的困難，及法令上的限制做研究。研究結果發現地方主管機關（高雄市觀光局）在合法化作業中極為重要：其與平行單位之橫向溝通，以及各相關單位承辦人員對於專案認知，皆關係到合法化作業是否得以順利進行。此外，國有財產署之國有土地政策，亦是關鍵因子。最後也提出建議給溫泉業者、主管機關及後續研究作為參考。

Tourism Bureau of Taiwan established Mao-lin National Scenic Area in October 2001, and at around the same time proposed ＂The Program of Legalizing the Hot Spring Hotels and Home-stays in the Bora and Bulao Hot Spring Regions of the Mao-lin National Scenic Area,＂ which would be approved by the Ministry of Transportation and Communications later, and the proposal aimed at helping hot spring business owners complete the legalization process in a time span of three years and six months. On February 24th, 2003, the Maolin National Scenic Area Administration was ordered by the Executive Yuan to help legalize all the pre-existing hot spring hotels and home-stays. Years later, the process of legalization was greatly impacted due to the fact that Typhoon Morakot damaged Bora area badly, so the related authorities prolonged the deadline of legalization to June, 2012; however, before the deadly arrived, the Ministry of Transportation and Communications again prolonged the final deadline to the end of August, 2014, after the petitioning of the business owners. Until now, there are fourteen hot spring businesses in Bora and Bulao areas whose legalization processes are yet to be completed; although they have passed the related examination of environmental protection and soil conservation, the land use zoning still cannot be changed accordingly. In order to explore the related problems of the above-mentioned legalization process, this study employs the method of in-depth interview. This study also focuses on the hot spring businesses which have a very long history, in this way trying to examine the present development of the Bora and Bulao areas, the difficulties encountered by the businesses, and also many of the legal restriction problems. After analyzing the interviews, this study has been able to conclude that the local authority (that is, the Bureau of Tourism of the Kaohsiung Municipal Government) is extremely crucial in the process of legalization, because whether the process can be completed in fact is determined by how well the bureau can communicate with related units and also how well the related personnel understand the legalization project. Another crucial factor in this process is the land use policy of National Property Administration, Ministry of Finance. The study also tries to propose some suggestions for hot spring business owners, government officials, and related scholars to consider.
