[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kang Woo-kwon] Han Ok-moon (Yangsan 1, United Future Party), chairman of the Construction and Firefighting Committee of the Gyeongnam Provincial Council, announced on the 7th that 300 million KRW of provincial funds have been secured for the Yangsan Bukbucheon stream maintenance project.

Yangsan Bukbucheon frequently threatens the lives and safety of local residents as the stream overflows during heavy rains due to insufficient flow cross-section, causing habitual flooding of lowland farmland.

Provincial Councilor Han Ok-moon secured 300 million KRW in the third supplementary budget of Gyeongnam Province for expanding the stream width and maintaining embankments and revetments to strengthen the disaster prevention function of Bukbucheon.

The Bukbucheon stream maintenance project plans to start design services, compensation, and construction this year, and complete the project by June next year.

Provincial Councilor Han Ok-moon said, “Although there were some difficulties in securing the budget as the supplementary budget was mainly allocated for quarantine expenses due to the COVID-19 situation, I am pleased that the residents’ long-standing request for safety has been resolved.”
