Hong advocates that the land along the midstream portion of the Linbian River be returned to its former state as a "flood plain." During typhoons, water could be drawn off into the broad 3000 hectares of reforested land owned by Taiwan Sugar, and the whole area could be surrounded by earthen dikes to prevent water from flowing out.
他主張，林邊溪中游應恢復以往的「洪泛平原」方式，在颱風期間將洪水引到廣達 3,000 公頃的台糖造林地（含萬隆、南岸、興華、大響營等農場，如附圖），再設土堤將洪泛區圍住，避免洪水流竄即可。
