[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Song Jong-gu] Cho Myeong-rae, the 2nd Deputy Mayor of Changwon Special City, Gyeongnam, visited the Cheonseon Landfill in Seongsan-gu to inspect major issues within the landfill.

Cheonseon Landfill, which began operation in July 1992, is a landfill for non-combustible household waste generated in the Uichang and Seongsan-gu areas. It is the largest of the three household waste landfills located in Changwon City. Currently, an average of 156 tons is brought in daily, the landfill rate is 64%, and it is scheduled to be closed by 2060.

The Cheonseon Landfill prevents indiscriminate dumping through household waste intake mapping and minimizes odor and pest damage caused by waste landfill by conducting landfill cover and quarantine measures.

On the 18th, Deputy Mayor Cho visited the landfill, thoroughly inspecting the leachate treatment plant and landfill site, closely observing the entire process of household waste being landfilled, and met with on-site personnel monitoring the incoming waste to hear about their difficulties.

Deputy Mayor Cho said, “Thanks to the hard work of everyone quietly working on site, the citizens of Changwon can enjoy a pleasant environment,” and added, “Since it is difficult to create new landfills, please continue to operate well by thoroughly managing waste intake to reduce garbage.”
