[Asia Economy Reporter Ra Young-cheol] Gangwon Province will conduct a joint special crackdown with city and county authorities from the 24th to the 31st targeting large-scale construction sites and businesses that generate large amounts of fugitive dust, such as non-metallic material manufacturing and processing industries.


According to the province on the 22nd, the crackdown will focus on ▲ reporting (or changes to reports) of fugitive dust-generating businesses ▲ whether dust prevention covers or dust prevention nets (screens) are installed during outdoor storage ▲ whether vehicles undergo wheel washing, washing, or side spraying during operation ▲ installation of fugitive dust suppression facilities such as road spraying and compliance with necessary measures.


Businesses found violating regulations will face administrative actions such as warnings, improvement orders, and suspension of operations, along with fines and penalties of up to 3 million won.



A provincial official urged, "Businesses that generate fugitive dust should install and operate reduction facilities themselves to minimize harm to others."
