Fishing and Cooking Prohibited in Cheonan City Urban Streams

Administrative Notice Until the 2nd of Next Month... Fine of Up to 3 Million Won for Violations

Cheonan City in South Chungcheong Province announced that starting next month, all activities such as fishing and cooking will be completely prohibited in six urban streams, including Cheonancheon.

The city has designated a total of 20.1 kilometers across five local streams?Cheonancheon, Wonseongcheon, Samryongcheon, Guryongcheon, and Jangjaecheon?as areas where fishing, camping, and cooking are banned. In addition, a 1.01-kilometer section of Seongjeongcheon will be administratively announced as a fishing prohibition zone from the 11th of this month until the 2nd of next month to gather public opinion.

This measure was explained as a response to the recent increase in the use of camping cars, caravans, and tents, which has led to illegal dumping of trash, open fires, and roadside parking, causing inconvenience to citizens. As a result, the city decided to designate fishing prohibition zones and similar restrictions.

After collecting opinions through the administrative notice process, the city plans to officially designate and announce these urban streams as fishing, camping, and cooking prohibition areas next month.

After the official announcement, anyone caught cooking, camping, or fishing in these streams may be fined up to 3 million won.

A Cheonan City official stated, "By designating fishing, camping, and cooking prohibition areas as well as fishing prohibition zones in urban streams, we aim to prevent river pollution and preserve the ecosystem, thereby providing citizens with a clean and pleasant river environment."
