Gwangju Volunteer Fire Brigade's All-Out Effort to Respond to Typhoon 'Hinnamno'

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Yoon Jamin] The Volunteer Fire Brigade of the Gwangju Metropolitan City Fire Safety Headquarters has made every effort to respond to Typhoon No. 11 ‘Hinnamnor’.

The City Fire Safety Headquarters urgently summoned volunteer firefighters on the 5th to prepare for simultaneous multiple dispatch demands, as the super typhoon ‘Hinnamnor’ was forecasted to cause significant damage across the country.

Before the typhoon approached, they completed inspections of flood control equipment such as submersible pumps and increased the operational personnel for each fire truck to prepare for rescue and emergency response.

Additionally, the volunteer firefighters were responsible for non-emergency dispatch support such as drainage assistance and preventive patrols to check for flooding in low-lying areas and overflow of stormwater drains.

The Gwangju Fire Safety Headquarters plans to continue efforts in damage recovery after the typhoon passes, including water supply and drainage support, road and sign safety measures, and removal of obstacles and waste.
