Suwon City Installs 20 CCTVs to Monitor Illegal Dumping in Yeonmu-dong Area

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Jeong Jun-seong] Suwon City announced on the 12th that it installed 20 mobile CCTVs for monitoring illegal dumping in the Yeonmu-dong area on the 5th and 6th as part of the 'Smart City-type Urban Regeneration New Deal Project.'

The CCTVs installed this time are part of the 'Yeonmu Green IoT (Internet of Things)' initiative, one of the detailed projects under the 'Yeonmu-dong Smart City-type Urban Regeneration New Deal Project,' and operate on a system powered by electricity generated through solar panels.

Yeonmu-dong was selected in October 2019 as a target site for the 'Second Half 2019 Urban Regeneration New Deal Project' hosted by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport. The project, which began in 2020, will be promoted in stages through 2023.

The Yeonmu-dong Urban Regeneration Project applies more than 10 smart services reflecting resident needs in connection with 'Creating Hub Spaces in Yeonmu Village,' 'Improving Residential Environment,' 'Village Environment Improvement Project,' and 'Community Revitalization Project.'

A city official stated, "Although we are implementing strong policies to reduce garbage, illegal dumping continues to occur," and added, "We expect that the installation of these monitoring CCTVs will greatly help with eliminating illegal dumping and establishing a culture of proper waste disposal."
