The city of Guri, Gyeonggi Province (Mayor Baek Kyung-hyun) announced on the 29th that it will conduct a detailed safety inspection of the Gangbuk water reservoir for about 60 days starting in October to ensure a stable supply of tap water.


The Gangbuk water reservoir, located in Inchang-dong, Guri City, is a facility that temporarily stores tap water from the Seoul Metropolitan Waterworks and supplies it to the residents of Inchang-dong and Donggu-dong. The main facilities include two storage tanks, eight valves, and two pumps.


Through this inspection, the city plans to investigate the facilities in the reservoir (tanks, valves, pumps, etc.), conduct a comprehensive condition assessment, evaluate safety including seismic performance, and if repair or reinforcement is necessary, derive maintenance plans and approximate construction costs.



Mayor Baek Kyung-hyun of Guri stated, “Officials are working tirelessly day and night to supply tap water that citizens can drink with confidence, and through an accurate detailed safety inspection, we will establish measures to strengthen facility safety management.”
