[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Saeyan] The Waterworks Office of Changwon City, Gyeongnam Province, has started safety inspections of small-scale rural water supply facilities since the 15th in preparation for the thawing season.

The city is inspecting 74 village water supply facilities (village domestic water supply facilities using groundwater) located in areas where local waterworks are not supplied.

The main focus is on checking for ground subsidence around reservoirs and buried water transmission and distribution pipes, as well as verifying whether there is any collapse of groundwater wells and leakage in pipelines.

Based on the inspection results, facilities requiring urgent action will undergo immediate repairs, and old facilities such as damaged water tanks and pipes will be gradually replaced through a phased project.

Kwon Kyungman, head of the Waterworks Office, said, "We will do our best to supply clean tap water that rural residents can drink with confidence through regular inspections and thorough maintenance of water supply facilities."
