◆ 폐기물 처리 규모 및 투입 예산
예산군은 2024년 7월 16일부터 20일까지 발생한 집중호우로 인한 수해 폐기물 1만6674톤을 국비 33억원으로 최종 처리했다고 19일 밝혔다. 군은 수해 직후 2차 환경오염 피해를 차단하기 위해 대회리와 대률리 2개 지역에 임시적환장을 지정하고 운영했다. 폐기물의 안정적 보관과 위생 관리를 실시한 뒤 민간 전문 처리업체와 협력해 수거·선별·운반·처리를 단계별로 추진했다.
◆ 환경오염 저감 조치
군은 악취와 침출수로 인한 환경오염을 최소화하기 위해 임시적환장 내 침출수 차단 시설과 악취 저감 대책을 동시에 실행했다. 읍면 행정복지센터와 직속기관·사업소 등 관련 부서에 수거·처리 절차를 신속히 안내해 재난 현장의 혼선을 최소화했다.
◆ 폐기물 분류 처리 및 향후 계획
군은 주거지·도로변에서 발생한 생활계 폐기물(재활용, 소각), 건설 폐기물, 초본, 임목, 지정폐기물 등을 분류 기준에 따라 선별 처리했다. 군 관계자는 "폐기물의 신속한 수거와 안전한 처리가 주민 생활 회복의 첫걸음이었다"며 "계획적이고 체계적인 수거망 구축과 부서 간 유기적 협력이 생활 환경 정상화에 역할을 했다"고 했다. 향후 유사 재난에 대비해 임시적환장 운영 매뉴얼을 보완하고 처리 역량을 강화할 방침이다.

Yesan-gun Completes Processing of 16,674 Tons of Flood Waste from Heavy Downpour 33 Billion Won in National Budget Invested; Secondary Environmental Contamination Prevented
Temporary Collection Sites and Phased Processing Rapidly Normalize Residents' Living Environment
◆ Scale of Waste Processing and Budget Allocation
Yesan-gun announced on the 19th that it completed final processing of 16,674 tons of flood waste generated by heavy downpours that occurred from July 16 to 20, 2024, using 33 billion won in national budget. To prevent secondary environmental contamination immediately after the disaster, the county designated and operated temporary collection sites in two areas: Daehoe-ri and Daeryul-ri. Following stable storage and sanitation management of the waste, the county collaborated with private specialized processing companies to implement phased collection, sorting, transportation, and treatment.
◆ Environmental Pollution Reduction Measures
The county minimized environmental contamination from odors and leachate by implementing leachate blocking facilities and odor reduction measures at the temporary collection sites simultaneously. The county rapidly guided collection and treatment procedures to relevant departments including eup-myeon administrative welfare centers and directly managed institutions, minimizing confusion at disaster sites.
◆ Waste Classification Processing and Future Plans
The county sorted and processed household waste (recycling, incineration), construction waste, herbaceous waste, timber waste, and designated waste generated from residential areas and roadsides according to classification standards. A county official stated, "Rapid collection and safe treatment of waste were the first step in residents' recovery of daily life," and noted that "systematic waste collection networks and organic cooperation between departments played a significant role in normalizing the living environment." The county plans to strengthen its disaster response system by refining temporary collection site operation manuals and enhancing processing capacity in preparation for similar disasters in the future.
