Chungnam, Safety Inspection of Disaster-Vulnerable Multi-Use Facilities

[Asia Economy (Hongseong) Reporter Jeong Il-woong] Chungnam Province announced on the 23rd that it will conduct safety inspections on about 90 disaster-vulnerable facilities within the province until the 7th of next month.

The safety inspections are carried out as part of the ‘Chungnam Safety Transformation Intensive Safety Inspection Plan,’ prepared in response to the ‘Korea Safety Transformation Plan’ led by the Ministry of the Interior and Safety.

The Chungnam Safety Transformation consists of six projects: intensive safety inspections, Safety Korea training, safety inspections of disaster-vulnerable facilities, water play safety, Safety Newspaper, and safety promotion.

Among these, the safety inspection targets for disaster-vulnerable facilities include 90 facilities such as traditional markets and museums within the province, as well as 7 elevators.

The province plans to involve the provincial safety management advisory group, composed of experts in architecture, civil engineering, and electricity, to examine the overall management status of the safety inspection target facilities, including the safety condition of major structural parts, management status of electrical, gas, and mechanical equipment, operation status of elevators and escalators, and compliance with COVID-19 quarantine guidelines.

Lee Jeong-gu, Director of the Disaster Safety Office of Chungnam Province, said, “We ask for the interest and cooperation of the residents so that the Chungnam Safety Transformation Intensive Safety Inspection Plan can be an effective safety inspection.”
