Suwon Gwonseon-gu Conducts On-Site Survey of Facilities Subject to Environmental Improvement Charges

Suwon City's Gwonseon-gu announced on the 25th that it will conduct on-site surveys of 3,304 target facilities from July 2nd to assess charges related to the imposition and collection of environmental improvement charges.

The district applies the polluter-pays principle to require polluters to bear the costs of treating pollutants emitted during distribution and consumption processes.

The surveyed buildings are facilities (excluding residential use) in the distribution and consumption sectors with a combined floor area of 160㎡ or more per story. During the on-site survey, accurate investigations will be conducted regarding basic facility information (facility name, owner, etc.), water and fuel usage currently in use at the facilities, and changes in tenant business types.

Based on the survey data, the district will impose environmental improvement charges according to the water and fuel usage consumed by the target facilities from January 1st through the 30th of this month and the intended use of the building.

Due to this facility survey, notices for the 2012 second-term environmental improvement charges will be sent on September 10th and must be paid by September 30th.
