[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Geochang-gun, Gyeongnam Province, is intensively implementing the "2022 Summer Comprehensive Measures" starting this month, which includes 17 detailed plans across 5 areas such as heatwave response safety management and summer daily life safety management, to prepare for various disasters and accidents expected due to rising temperatures in summer.

The county has formed a dedicated T/F team to establish a heatwave situation management and response system in preparation for summer heatwaves. Pre-inspections of 558 indoor and outdoor heatwave shelters are underway.

Support services will be strengthened for vulnerable groups requiring care during heatwaves, and special summer measures will be implemented at welfare facilities for severely disabled users, establishing a thorough summer safety management network.

To prevent summer infectious diseases, emergency quarantine duties will be carried out, and disinfection personnel will be deployed to unsanitary areas such as sewers and parks to strengthen quarantine disinfection.

For food hygiene management, inspections and management will be conducted on multi-use facilities frequently used by residents, and to prevent group food poisoning in the autumn new semester, an inspection team will be formed to focus on hygiene management of food ingredients and the use of substandard raw materials at 49 locations including school cafeterias.

To eradicate illegal commercial activities at major tourist sites due to the increase in tourists during the vacation season, a price countermeasure situation room will be operated to conduct on-site inspections of violations related to price stabilization.

Geochang-gun will inspect the price labeling system status at representative tourist sites such as Susungdae and operate an unfair fare reporting center for tourists.
