The selected Environmental Guardians will work 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, performing various environmental conservation activities such as monitoring and guiding environmental pollution acts in the Yeongsangang and Seomjingang basins, riverbank cleanup activities, local resident education and promotion, and investigation of compost management conditions along the riverbanks.

A daily wage of 68,720 KRW will be paid, and a fixed daily expense of 13,000 KRW will be provided for actual working days.

A representative of the Yeongsangang River Basin Environmental Office said, "To ensure the substantial operation of the Environmental Guardian project, we will contribute to various water quality improvement activities and the creation of employment effects for residents in the Yeongsangang and Seomjingang basins, as well as resident-participatory watershed management. We hope for much interest and participation from local residents in this Environmental Guardian recruitment, and as the number of participants increases compared to last year, we expect the effect of preventing water pollution in advance to be further enhanced."
