Paldal-gu Crackdown on Illegal Garbage Dumping in Ingye-dong

The Ingye-dong Community Service Center in Paldal-gu (District Chief Choi Kwang-kyun) announced on the 13th that it conducted a joint public-private crackdown on illegal garbage dumping in three habitual dumping sites on the 7th.

The crackdown was carried out as a joint operation involving employees of the Ingye-dong Community Service Center, neighborhood leaders, and members of organizations participating in the public-private responsibility system for habitual dumping areas.

Additionally, as the influx of foreign residents has increased, the center visited residential and commercial areas with high concentrations of foreign residents to distribute guidance notices and conducted promotional activities regarding the use of pay-per-use garbage bags.

District Chief Choi Kwang-kyun stated, "Using pay-per-use garbage bags is the first step in eradicating illegal garbage dumping," and added, "We plan to conduct ongoing promotional activities and crackdowns until the practice of using pay-per-use bags becomes a norm in daily life."
