[Asia Economy Reporter Park Hyesook] Bucheon City, Gyeonggi Province, is providing financial support for the replacement of aging water pipes with a budget of over 700 million KRW.

Residents living in homes with rusty water can apply for the "Rust-Free Home Water Pipe Improvement Project" by November 30 to receive cost support.

The support targets aging homes with an area of 130㎡ or less, approved before April 1994, where galvanized steel pipes are installed and rusty water comes from the tap.

Depending on the size of the house, 30% to 80% of the total construction cost will be reimbursed, up to a maximum of 1,048,000 KRW.

Applications can be made by visiting or calling the Water Facilities Division. For more details, contact Bucheon City Water Facilities Division (032-625-3291, 3295) or Bucheon City Call Center (032-320-3000) for guidance.

Meanwhile, last year, 904 households in single-family and small multi-family homes received partial support for construction costs and are now using clean tap water.
