Applications can be submitted until September 30 at the township office or community welfare center where the damaged farmland or building is located.
An official from Jinju City stated, "We hope that this reduction in water and sewage fees will provide some relief to citizens affected by the heavy rain and help them return to normal life as soon as possible."
