Gyeonggi Yeoninsan Provincial Park Implements Summer Water Safety Measures

Gyeonggi Yeoninsan Provincial Park has implemented a "water safety plan" for the summer season. This measure is intended to prevent various water-related accidents that may occur in the valleys.

Yeoninsan Provincial Park aims for "zero water-related accidents" and, from July 1 to August 31, will operate an on-site situation room for accident prevention, run illegal activity monitoring services, and deploy selected water safety personnel.

In high-risk areas, the park will install safety facilities such as life-saving stations and intensively assign safety management personnel to strengthen real-time safety guidance.

In particular, during hours that may be vulnerable in terms of water safety management?before 9 a.m. and after 6 p.m. until sunset?provincial park staff will conduct safety patrols and enforce bans on activities such as cooking and drinking.
