The Uijeongbu Public Sewage Treatment Plant, which began operation in 1987 in Jangam-dong, Uijeongbu, has seen a significant increase in maintenance costs due to aging, and it has become difficult to meet the strengthened effluent water quality standards. Additionally, with urban expansion, large apartment complexes and living facilities have been built around the treatment plant, leading to a surge in complaints from nearby residents about odors, resulting in ongoing demands for facility modernization.

To address these issues, DL E&C proposed the Uijeongbu Public Sewage Treatment Plant Modernization Private Investment Project in 2019 and was recently selected as the preferred negotiator. The project is planned to commence construction in 2024 and be completed by 2029, aiming to improve the water quality environment of Jungnangcheon Stream and odor problems through clean and stable sewage treatment. Furthermore, the surface area will be converted into a park to provide a pleasant leisure space for citizens.

DL E&C plans to continue expanding its global green developer business in various fields such as water treatment facilities, hydropower generation, and waste resource energy facilities. Last year, DL E&C gained attention as an eco-friendly power generation and energy developer by officially operating the Gulpur Hydropower Plant in Pakistan.
