Suwon City Installs 20 CCTVs to Monitor Illegal Dumping in Yeonmu-dong Area

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Jung Jun-sung] Suwon City announced on the 12th that it has installed 20 mobile CCTVs for monitoring illegal dumping in the Yeonmu-dong area on the 5th and 6th as part of the 'Smart City-Type Urban Regeneration New Deal Project.'

The CCTVs installed this time are part of the 'Yeonmu Green IoT (Internet of Things),' one of the detailed projects of the 'Yeonmu-dong Smart City-Type Urban Regeneration New Deal Project,' and operate on a system powered by electricity generated from solar panels.

Yeonmu-dong was selected as a target site for the '2019 Second Half Urban Regeneration New Deal Public Recruitment Project' led by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport in October 2019. The project, which began in 2020, will be implemented in phases through 2023.

The Yeonmu-dong urban regeneration project applies over 10 smart services reflecting residents' needs in connection with 'creating hub spaces in Yeonmu Village,' 'improving residential environments,' 'village environment improvement projects,' and 'community activation projects.'

A city official said, "While we are implementing strong garbage reduction policies, illegal dumping continues to occur," adding, "We expect that the installation of these monitoring CCTVs will greatly help in eliminating illegal dumping and establishing a culture of proper garbage disposal."
