More than 800, 000 cubic meters of earth were removed from the river-beds and over 100, 000 square meters of stones laid?through river improvement projects.

Units in the field of land management and cities and counties have concentrated their efforts on river improvement projects in their areas.

Yonthan County is stepping up the river-bed dredging and embankment project in several kilometers-long section at the final stage by keeping heavy machines and vehicles in full-capacity operation.

Sariwon City and Yonsan County have pushed forward with the work for laying stones and creating bank-protecting forest as planned.

Working people in Hwangju County, too, are reinforcing the embankments in a qualitative way while giving priority to dredging rivers.
