Kim Suhwan, Head of Jeju Fire Headquarters, Conducts Safety Inspection of Local Power Facilities

Kim Suhwan, Chief of Jeju Fire Safety Headquarters, visited power generation facilities in the province on the 20th to conduct on-site inspections of fire safety management and hazardous materials management status, and discussed measures for close cooperation in case of emergencies.

According to Jeju Fire Safety Headquarters on the 21st, power generation facilities are national infrastructure, and since a halt in operation can cause enormous damage, special attention to safety management is required.

The power plants visited that day were Jeju Power Headquarters (Samyang-dong) and Namjeju Bitdream Headquarters (Andeok-myeon), two major power generation facilities responsible for most of the province's power generation capacity, making safety management even more important.

At a meeting with executives and employees, Chief Kim expressed gratitude for their efforts in fire safety management so far and engaged in in-depth discussions on establishing a cooperative system for rapid response in case of disasters.

He then thoroughly checked major facilities, including ▲ hazardous materials management status ▲ maintenance and management of fire-fighting facilities ▲ inspection of evacuation facilities such as escape routes ▲ and the existence of fire safety plans and organization of self-defense fire brigades, putting effort into safety inspections.

Chief Kim Suhwan said, “If a fire occurs at a power plant, it can lead to enormous damage such as power supply issues,” and added, “I will continue to ensure that no negligence occurs in any matters related to fire safety.”
