The Daejeon Waterworks Headquarters announced that as a result of a joint inspection on the hygiene management of water purification plants conducted by the Ministry of Environment's Geumgang River Basin Environmental Office, no larvae were found in all three water purification plants, and the hygiene management of the water purification process was found to be satisfactory.

The Daejeon Waterworks Headquarters has been promoting measures such as double doors, installation of fine insect screens, and improvement of water purification process operation methods to prevent the inflow of small organisms.

In addition, they are thoroughly managing hygiene by conducting continuous monitoring for larvae in each water purification process and operating a detailed epidemiological investigation team.

This year, to fundamentally block the inflow of foreign substances into tap water, they are promoting a small organism response system construction project by investing 840 million KRW to install multiple filtration screens at the inflow section of the water storage facilities.

Moon In-hwan, head of the Daejeon Waterworks Headquarters, said, “Daejeon tap water is clean water whose safety and excellence were confirmed in the joint inspection,” and added, “We will continue to do our best to supply clean and safe tap water.”
