Gyeonggi Province annually evaluates 31 cities and counties in six categories-including waterworks management, waterworks operation, and the implementation of key policies-to improve the quality of water services, selecting a total of six outstanding institutions.


Yangju City continued its achievements in the waterworks sector by being selected as the top institution in the "General Waterworks Business Operation and Management Evaluation" and as an outstanding institution in the "Waterworks Management Performance Evaluation" for 2024, and by achieving the top (Grade A) rating in the "General Waterworks Business Operation and Management Evaluation" and being named an outstanding institution in the "Waterworks Management Performance Evaluation" for 2025 as well.


This evaluation result appears to reflect Yangju City's ongoing efforts to provide high-quality tap water, including public awareness campaigns for citizens, improvement of water supply rates, and replacement projects for aging pipelines. It is also understood that the city's active guidance and implementation of resident support projects, such as the replacement of rusty water pipes in old houses and the tap water safety verification program, were included in the evaluation.



An official from Yangju City stated, "We will continue to do our utmost in the operation and management of the waterworks business so that citizens can use clean and safe tap water with confidence."
