This thesis explores the distributive attributes of regulatory policies in Taiwan. Generally speaking, if polluting industries are penalized by local EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) but remain unconvinced, industries may file an administrative appeal to the EPA of central government for remedies. The EPA of central government shall organize a committee to review cases and then decide either to dismiss the case or to keep the status quo in terms of necessary evidences. Based on the 365 cases of administrative appeal which have been filed by private-owned industries from 1993 to 2007, the authors ask whether the decisions of central government EPA are contaminated by distributive politics. Specifically we ask, under what conditions and to what extent, do legislators who are elected from the industries' location try to affect the decision so that the polluting industries might be better off (the case end up with dismissal)? Special attention is paid on how the SNTV system shapes legislators' motives to serve polluting industries' interest.Logistic regression is employed to estimate the factors that would affect the results of appeal. First of all, the results show that legislators do help the appealing industries, which located in legislators' vote-concentrated area, to get better appealing results, in the sense that legislator treats regulatory policy as the pork barrel to please the industries. Second, if only one legislator dominates the sub-district (vote-concentrated area) where the industries are located, then the appealing result is better than other appealing industries whose location either without any legislator's dominance or with more than one's dominance. Third, there are still some significant factors contributing to the appealing results such as the business background of legislators, operation duration and the amount of workers of appealing company etc.In sum, this thesis not only indicates that the regulatory policy has distributive attributes, but also reveals that the legislators' pork-barrel behavior is mostly affected by the sub-district where legislators' votes are concentrated. These findings have some implications on distributive politics under the SNTV system in Taiwan.
