The public sewage treatment facilities in Jeonju-si process an average of 360,000 tons and 14,000 tons of wastewater daily through the Songcheon Sewage Treatment Plant and the Innovation Water Quality Restoration Center, respectively.

To ensure the smooth operation of the facilities, the city significantly increased the related budget from 32.7 billion won last year to 43.4 billion won this year.

Kim In-taek, head of the city's Water and Sewerage Division, stated that through impeccable maintenance and management of the sewage treatment plants, they will improve the water quality of rivers in the upstream area of Saemangeum, create a pleasant urban environment, and make every effort to enhance the quality of life for citizens.
