Korea Water Resources Corporation increased the discharge volume of Andong Dam from 20 tons per second to 80 tons per second starting at 8 a.m. on the 25th to prevent the spread of the wildfire in Uiseong-gun, Gyeongbuk.
This measure was taken to support the fire authorities in securing sufficient firefighting water.
Previously, the Water Resources Corporation also tripled the discharge volume of Seongdeok Dam in Cheongsong-gun, Gyeongbuk, from 1.8 tons per second.
