In preparation for forest fire occurrences, emergency duty will be carried out, and firefighting helicopters will be stationed around the Hwangryonggang area to focus all efforts on rapid suppression and minimizing damage.

Considering that most forest fires originate from illegal burning activities, a special crackdown team will also be operated during the forest fire prevention period to eradicate burning activities near forest areas.

Kim Han-jong, the county governor, said, "Since the thought of 'just me' can lead to great damage, I urge everyone to actively participate in forest fire prevention."
