Daejeon City Constructs Four New Disaster Management Support Storage Facilities

[Asia Economy (Reporter Jeong Il-woong)] Daejeon City announced on the 31st that it has newly constructed four individual disaster management resource storage warehouses to manage and supply resources necessary for disaster management.

The storage warehouses were built on the first floor of buildings in Gayang-dong, Dong-gu; Yongdu-dong, Jung-gu; Gasuwon-dong, Seo-gu; and Sinseong-dong, Yuseong-gu, each with an area of less than 5,050㎡.

The warehouses store resources for flood-related equipment and materials such as engine pumps and submersible pumps; snow-related equipment and materials such as non-edible salt, de-icing agents, ice-breaking machines, and spreaders; and wildfire-related stockpile resources such as backpack pumps and electric saws.

The autonomous districts where the warehouses were newly constructed will systematically manage items such as flood control equipment and materials and snow removal materials, and promptly provide necessary resources when disaster situations occur.

Separately from the construction of the storage warehouses, the city plans to build a Disaster Management Resource Regional Hub Center by the second half of this year to integrate and manage various disaster management resources currently managed by each department, and to identify and stockpile supplies needed for various disaster preparedness.

Yang Seung-chan, Director of the Citizen Safety Office of the city, said, "Disasters are directly linked to citizens' lives and property damage. The city will make every effort to ensure that resources necessary for practical recovery and restoration during disaster situations can be mobilized in a timely manner."
