[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Jeong Jun-seong] Hwaseong City Water Works (Director Woo Jeong-sook) was selected as a '2026 Top Water Management Organization' at the '34th Water Management Advancement Symposium' held in Jeju on the 25th.

The selection as a top organization resulted from a comprehensive evaluation of operating performance and management systems of water utility operators through applications for outstanding organization recommendations. Only four organizations, including Hwaseong City Water Works, were selected as top organizations among 160 water utility operators nationwide. The selection recognized achievements in proactively responding to surging water supply demand and pursuing rational facility expansion and water management policies.

This symposium was organized to share water management policies and operational cases. Key programs included a seminar on the theme of 'Efficient Water Management to Overcome Climate Crisis' and a consultation meeting on market expansion and mutual cooperation for water companies, exploring ways to create new value for water.

Meanwhile, Hwaseong City Water Works has been recognized for excellence in water management administration, having been selected for two consecutive years in the superior grade in the public enterprise management evaluation conducted by the Ministry of the Interior and Safety and in the top group for two consecutive years in the general water utility operation management evaluation.

Director Woo Jeong-sook of Water Works said, "Since water supply is a public service directly linked to citizens' lives, we will make our best efforts to realize water welfare that citizens can trust through stable water supply and systematic management of water supply facilities."
