Anyang Selected as Outstanding Institution in Gyeonggi Province's '2024 Water Supply Project Performance Evaluation' for Second Consecutive Year

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Eom In-yong] Anyang City announced on the 2nd that it has been selected as an outstanding institution for the second consecutive year in Gyeonggi Province's "2024 Water Supply Project Performance Evaluation."

The water supply performance evaluation conducted by Gyeonggi Province is being implemented to raise awareness of the importance of water supply management, encourage outstanding cities and counties, and improve the quality of water service.

This evaluation covered 31 water supply operators in the province and was conducted comprehensively across six categories from November last year to October of this year: ▲water supply management ▲water supply operations ▲public relations ▲performance results of the "Green Water in Our Homes" water pipe replacement project ▲major policy implementation results ▲and cooperation with provincial policies.

The city received consistently high scores across all categories and was recognized as a leading institution in the water supply sector this year, following last year's achievement.

Anyang conducted replacement and maintenance projects on 11 aging water pipes this year to ensure stable supply of clean tap water and prevent water leakage and discoloration.

Additionally, the Cheonggyesan Integrated Water Purification Plant, which supplies tap water to three cities in the Anyang region, is scheduled to complete advanced water treatment facilities by next year. Through facilities that remove odor-causing substances, more advanced than existing standard water treatment processes, the city plans to supply cleaner and more pure tap water to citizens.

Anyang Mayor Choi Dae-ho stated, "This achievement is the result of continuous efforts based on the trust of citizens," and added, "We will continue to do our best to promote sustainable water supply operations and enhance citizen satisfaction."
