[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Park Dong-wook] Gimcheon City in Gyeongbuk announced on the 11th that it will conduct special guidance and inspections targeting facilities emitting environmental pollutants for ten days from the 16th to the 25th ahead of the Chuseok holiday.


This special inspection is a measure to prevent illegal activities at facilities emitting environmental pollutants such as air and water pollutants and livestock manure discharge facilities during the Chuseok holiday, when management and supervision tend to be neglected.


During the holiday period, environmental management and supervision will be strengthened by operating an environmental pollution control team as well as a duty room, conducting source tracking investigations if pollutants are found in major rivers such as Gamcheon, Jikjicheon, and Yulgokcheon.



Lee Sam-geun, head of the Environmental Hygiene Division, urged, "Facilities that discharge environmental pollutants should conduct self-inspections of their facilities to preemptively block risk factors related to environmental pollution and thoroughly prevent environmental pollution accidents during the holiday period."
