During the meeting, the committee shared updates on the operation status and achievements of Saewool Units 1 and 2, which are currently running normally, as well as the progress and commissioning status of Saewool Units 3 and 4.


In particular, the committee also shared the results and plans for social contribution activities, including emergency donations and water supply support for towns and townships in Ulju County affected by water outages caused by heavy rains in July, and the distribution of air circulators to senior centers near the power plant as part of an emergency support project for climate-vulnerable groups. These efforts received positive feedback from the committee members.


Choi Joonsik (currently Chairman of the Onyang-eup Village Leaders’ Association), a member of the committee, expressed his gratitude, saying, "This summer was especially hot, but the elderly in each village of Onyang-eup were able to cope with the heat thanks to Saewool Nuclear Power Headquarters’ support in providing air circulators and sharing nutritious Samgyetang meals," highlighting the significance of community cooperation.


So Yooseop, Head of Saewool Nuclear Power Headquarters, stated, "At Saewool Headquarters, we prioritize not only the safe operation of nuclear power plants but also the value of mutual cooperation with local residents," adding, "We will always do our best to listen to and communicate with the community."



The Saewool Headquarters Nuclear Power Communication Committee is a standing communication body composed of 16 members, including Ulju County council members, local community leaders, residents, and civic group representatives. Through regular quarterly meetings, the committee transparently shares information on nuclear power plant operations and construction. It plans to continue its communication efforts with the community in the fourth quarter as well.
