[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Hwang Choi Hyun-joo] On the 15th, Haman-gun, Gyeongnam announced that four locations were selected for the Ministry of Environment's new sewerage projects for next year, securing a project budget of 17.6 billion KRW including national funds.

The secured project budget includes 8 billion KRW for aging sewer pipeline maintenance, 3.5 billion KRW for expansion of the Beoksan public sewage treatment facility in Beopsu, 3.2 billion KRW for installation of sewer pipelines in Sanin Eoyeon, and 2.9 billion KRW for installation of sewer pipelines in Chilseo Naenae, based on the total project cost. As a result of focused administrative efforts to secure the budget, all newly applied projects were selected.

The aging sewer pipeline maintenance project, implemented in the Gaya-eup and Daesan-myeon areas, will be the largest sewer pipeline repair project in Haman-gun's history, made possible through national funding support. Upon completion, it is expected to prevent flood damage by increasing sewer capacity during the rainy season, prevent sinkhole occurrences, and reduce operating costs of sewage treatment plants. The county plans to maintain a total of 5.8 km of pipelines by 2022.

An official from the County Water and Sewerage Office stated, “Since sewerage projects are key initiatives that create a clean living environment for residents and contribute to the preservation of public water quality, we will actively promote new projects every year to establish pleasant residential living conditions.”
