- Focus on preventing violations in advance through information sharing and joint inspections in the environmental sector -

Incheon Metropolitan City signed an MOU with the Korea Environment Corporation’s Seoul Western Regional Headquarters on May 8 at the corporation’s conference room in Gangseo-gu, Seoul, to create a cleaner urban environment and jointly respond to environmental risk factors.

The agreement was signed to strengthen the management of businesses with potential environmental pollution risks and establish a cooperative framework between the two organizations for preventing environmental violations and developing effective response measures.

Under the agreement, the two organizations will cooperate in various areas, including sharing analytical information on waste treatment, conducting joint inspections of businesses suspected of causing air pollution, sharing response measures for businesses subject to frequent complaints, and transferring techniques related to integrated environmental monitoring systems.

“This agreement is meaningful in that it establishes a foundation for strengthening the environmental pollution management system,” said Choi Jong-mun, Head of the Incheon Special Judicial Police Division. “We will continue working closely with the Korea Environment Corporation to create a safer and cleaner Incheon that citizens can truly experience.”
