Additionally, the county will station safety management personnel who have completed emergency response training and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training at all times to prevent accidents. The facility will maintain strict hygiene through regular water quality testing.

A county official said, "As another hot summer is expected this year, we will do our best in operating the water play facility with water quality and safety management so that many residents, including children, can enjoy a pleasant and healthy summer at Gapryong Park."
