On that day, the Self-Disaster Prevention Corps urgently produced about 700 bags of calcium chloride for snow and ice preparation due to the depletion of calcium chloride bags caused by the record-breaking heavy snowfall from November 26 to 28.

Song Min-ho, head of the Namhansanseong-myeon Self-Disaster Prevention Corps, stated, “The Self-Disaster Prevention Corps plays a role in preparing for disasters on the front lines and restoring damage when it occurs, and we will always come running to work hard to prevent disasters if necessary.”

Yoo Eun-geun, the myeon chief, said, “I sincerely thank the Self-Disaster Prevention Corps for their efforts to prepare for snow and ice despite the chilly weather,” adding, “We will do our best to prevent damage caused by snow and ice during the winter season.”

Meanwhile, the calcium chloride bags produced that day will be used for snow and ice preparation, such as being stocked in snow removal boxes in areas vulnerable to heavy snowfall and icing, and being spread in emergency snow removal zones.
