Hampyeong-gun Selected for 'Digital-Based Safety Management System for Aging and Hazardous Facilities Contest'
Secured 650 Million Won in National Funding... System to Be Established at Over 20 Locations
[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Chunsu] Hampyeong-gun, Jeollanam-do, has achieved the great feat of being selected as the first in Jeollanam-do for the Ministry of the Interior and Safety’s “Digital-based Safety Management System Construction Project for Aged and Hazardous Facilities.”
According to the county on the 5th, it was selected as the first in Jeollanam-do in the contest for the “Digital-based Safety Management System Construction Project for Aged and Hazardous Facilities.”
As a result of the evaluation, Hampyeong-gun was ranked 2nd nationwide among 16 local governments and was selected as a top (1st to 4th) local government, receiving 650 million KRW in national funding.
The “Digital-based Safety Management System for Aged and Hazardous Facilities” is a system that uses digital technologies such as IoT sensors to detect in advance and prevent risks of accidents at aged hazardous facilities such as bridges, steep slopes, reservoirs, and landslide risk areas.
The county plans to invest a total project cost of 1.3 billion KRW, including 650 million KRW in national funding secured through this contest project by 2023, to establish a digital-based safety management system targeting about 20 aged and hazardous facilities in the region.
Once the system is established, it will be possible to conduct real-time monitoring of facilities as well as integrated safety management using the measured data, enabling immediate response in case of emergency situations.
Also, depending on the degree of aging of the facilities, timely repair and reinforcement will be possible, which is expected to improve regional safety as well.
