Since its opening in 1991, Ulju Library's archive space has been saturated. Accordingly, Ulsan Metropolitan Office of Education plans to expand the preservation storage by 900㎡ with a project cost of 2.827 billion KRW.

Since its establishment in 1999, Gaeun Elementary School's cafeteria facilities have aged and are located underground, resulting in insufficient lighting and ventilation in the kitchen and dining area. Ulsan Metropolitan Office of Education plans to renovate the kitchen and install ventilation facilities with a project cost of 2.623 billion KRW.

Onsan Middle School, which started providing meals in 2004, has aging cafeteria facilities and lacks windows in the kitchen, causing insufficient lighting and ventilation. Ulsan Metropolitan Office of Education plans to renovate the kitchen and install ventilation facilities with a project cost of 1.082 billion KRW.

An official from Ulsan Metropolitan Office of Education said, “We will continue to strive to secure special grants to provide students with a safe and clean educational environment.”
