Effluent dumping to be under surveillance from 2007
The Ministry of Environment plans to install testers in 2,443 wastewater-related workplaces across the nation, and connect them to a control center to be set up at the Environmental Management Corp. (EMC) for constant surveillance.
That will make it possible to properly manage 86.7 percent of the total effluent of the year, facilitating sustaining clean water.
Testers to be set up at factories and workplaces for the TMS make it possible to check and gauge a variety of harmful materials, such as bio-chemical oxygen demand, chemical oxygen demand, total nitrogen, total phosphorous and suspended solid.
Testers to be installed will vary according to workplace and the ingredient of the effluent discharged.
The government plans to extend 170-200 million won in financial support to companies installing testers.
When companies are found out to have discharged harmful effluent more than allowed, a penalty charge will be levied or technical assistance will be provided by the EMC depending on the cause.
“It will greatly contribute to raising the efficiency of the effluent control, making constant surveillance easier and more transparent,” an official of the ministry said.
