Gwangju Buk-gu, Comprehensive Measures to Prevent Wildfires 추진
Buk-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City has entered a response system to prevent spring wildfires.
The district will implement the 'Comprehensive Spring Wildfire Prevention Plan' from the 1st of this month until May 15.
This plan focuses on four main areas: ▲ Intensive management of wildfire-prone areas ▲ Establishment of initial firefighting readiness ▲ Strengthening cooperation systems with related organizations ▲ Resident participation.
A Comprehensive Wildfire Prevention Headquarters will be established to expand and inspect firefighting equipment and operate a 24-hour emergency response system for rapid situation dissemination.
Twenty specialized wildfire prevention and firefighting personnel will be organized to patrol wildfire-prone areas, removing wildfire risk factors such as burning of rice paddies and field edges in advance, and three mobile patrol teams will be operated to strengthen patrols by region.
Related organizations such as Mudeungsan National Park, fire departments, police, and military units will maintain an emergency contact network at all times and strengthen a cooperative system to mutually support firefighting resources by each organization in case of wildfire occurrence, enabling efficient wildfire response.
