Ulsan Ungchon wildfire damage restoration area.

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] A public-private collaboration project to restore the wildfire-affected areas in Ulsan is underway.

On the 26th at 11:10 a.m., Ulsan City, Ulju County, and SK Innovation will sign a wildfire damage restoration agreement in the Daebok-ri area of Ungchon-myeon and begin a tree planting event in the Ungchon wildfire-affected area.

About 100 people, including Kim Doo-gyeom, Mayor of Ulsan, Lee Soon-geol, County Governor of Ulju, and Kim Joon, Vice Chairman of SK Innovation, will attend the event.

This agreement was prepared to restore 60 hectares of forest in the Ungchon wildfire-affected area in March 2020, marking the 60th anniversary of the designation of the Ulsan Industrial Center and the 60th anniversary of SK Innovation’s founding. It is an occasion for the creation of sustainable forest resources and the practice of carbon neutrality.

SK Innovation will sponsor 1 billion KRW for the restoration costs of the wildfire-affected area. This is evaluated as a case of corporate social responsibility activities in cooperation with the local community.

Kim Doo-gyeom, Mayor of Ulsan, said, “We are grateful that SK Innovation is sponsoring a considerable amount for the damage restoration,” and added, “We hope that the city, SK Innovation, and Ulju County will cooperate to jointly develop Ulsan’s future for the next 60 years.”
