(경기=브레이크뉴스 경기동북부)하인규 기자=경기도는 5월 15일부터 9월 30일까지를 폭염대책기간으로 정하고, 폭염저감시설 설치, 냉방비·냉방기기 지원, 독거노인·옥외노동자 등 폭염 취약계층 안전관리를 주요 내용으로 하는 폭염 종합대책을 추진한다. 폭염으로 온열진단을 받을 경우 경기도가 전국 최초로 시행하는 기후보험 혜택도 받을 수 있다.
기후변화로 인한 여름철 평균기온 상승으로 폭염 빈도와 강도가 증가함에 따라 도는 폭염대책기간을 지난해(5월 20일~9월 30일)보다 5일 앞당겼다.
경기도는 폭염 위기경보 수준에 따라 폭염 대응 합동전담 조직(TF) 또는 재난안전대책본부를 초기대응단계부터 비상3단계까지 가동해 폭염피해 예방에 총력을 기울일 예정이다.
재난관리기금 68억 원을 투입해 그늘막 등 폭염저감시설 1,347개를 확대 설치할 계획으로 올해는 공원·도로·시장주변 등 다중이용 시설에 쿨링포그(안개분사장치), 벽지노선에 에어컨이 설치된 그린통합쉼터를 설치해 도민들의 편익을 증진시킬 방침이다.
아울러, 취약노인 안부전화 및 방문건강 확인, 노숙인 밀집지역 순찰, 옥외 근로자 예찰 등을 실시해 취약계층 온열질환 피해를 예방하고, 저소득 가구(840가구) 에어컨 설치 지원, 경로당(8,668개소) 냉방비(33만 원) 지원, 이동노동자 쉼터 추가(4개소) 설치, 폭염 집중기간 옥외 체육행사 상황관리, 축사와 농작물 관리 등 여름철 폭염피해 예방 대책을 적극 추진한다.
특히, 올해 전국 최초로 시행하는 ‘경기 기후보험’으로 도민 누구나 열사병, 일사병 등 온열질환 진단시 보험금(10만 원)을 지급받을 수 있게 된다. 기후취약계층(시군 보건소 방문건강관리사업 대상자) 16만여 명은 기본 보장항목에 더해 ▲온열질환 입원비 ▲기상특보 시 의료기관 교통비 ▲기후재해 시 구급차 이후송비 ▲기후재해 정신적피해 지원을 추가로 보장받을 수 있다.
폭염 피해 예방을 위한 홍보도 강화한다. 특별교부세 및 재난관리기금을 활용해 옥외사업장, 논밭작업장에 대한 예찰․홍보활동을 지원하고, 아파트 승강기 내 영상표출장치(4만여 대), G버스 TV(1만6천여 대) 등을 통해 폭염행동요령 홍보를 적극 추진한다.
김성중 경기도 행정1부지사는 “기후변화로 폭염재난이 매년 심화되고 있어, 취약계층의 피해가 가장 우려되는 상황”이라며 “취약계층 등 도민의 건강과 안전을 위해 폭염대책이 제대로 작동될 수 있도록 세심하게 살피겠다”고 말했다.

Five days earlier than last year, comprehensive heat wave measures will be promoted from May 15 to September 30
- Checking on the well-being of vulnerable groups, installing heat wave reduction facilities such as cooling fog, expanding shelters for migrant workers, etc.
With the first implementation of "Gyeonggi Climate Insurance" in the nation, anyone in the province will be compensated in case of heat wave-related illnesses
- Insurance money (KRW 100,000) will be paid when diagnosed with heat-related illnesses such as heatstroke or sunstroke
- Reporter Ha In-gyu
(Gyeonggi=Break News Gyeonggi Northeast) Gyeonggi Province has designated the period from May 15 to September 30 as the heat wave measures period, and is promoting comprehensive heat wave measures with the main contents of installing heat wave reduction facilities, supporting cooling costs and air conditioning equipment, and managing the safety of vulnerable groups such as the elderly living alone and outdoor workers. If diagnosed with heatstroke due to heat waves, you can also receive climate insurance benefits, which Gyeonggi Province is implementing for the first time in the nation.
As the average temperature in summer increases due to climate change, the frequency and intensity of heat waves are increasing, so the province has brought forward the heat wave countermeasure period by 5 days from last year (May 20 to September 30).
Gyeonggi Province plans to put all its efforts into preventing heat wave damage by operating the heat wave response joint task force (TF) or disaster safety countermeasure headquarters from the initial response stage to emergency level 3 depending on the heat wave crisis warning level.
It plans to invest 6.8 billion won in the disaster management fund to expand and install 1,347 heat wave reduction facilities such as shade shelters, and this year, it plans to install cooling fog (fog spraying devices) in multi-use facilities such as parks, roads, and markets, and green integrated shelters with air conditioning on remote routes to increase the convenience of residents.
In addition, we will actively promote measures to prevent heat-related illnesses in vulnerable groups by conducting phone calls and on-site health checks for vulnerable elderly people, patrolling areas with dense homeless populations, and conducting surveillance of outdoor workers, and by supporting the installation of air conditioners in low-income households (840 households), providing support for cooling costs (KRW 330,000) in senior centers (8,668 locations), installing additional shelters for migrant workers (4 locations), managing the situation of outdoor sports events during the heat wave period, and managing livestock and crops.
In particular, with the ‘Gyeonggi Climate Insurance’ being implemented for the first time nationwide this year, any resident of the province will be able to receive insurance money (KRW 100,000) when diagnosed with heat-related illnesses such as heatstroke or sunstroke. Approximately 160,000 people in the climate-vulnerable group (those eligible for the city/county health center on-site health management project) will be additionally covered in addition to the basic coverage items: ▲Heat-related illness hospitalization costs ▲Transportation costs to medical institutions in case of a special weather report ▲Ambulance transportation costs in case of a climate disaster ▲Support for mental damage caused by a climate disaster.
We will also strengthen publicity for preventing heat wave damage. We will support forecasting and publicity activities for outdoor businesses and rice paddy and field work sites using special grants and disaster management funds, and actively promote heat wave action guidelines through video display devices in apartment elevators (about 40,000 units) and G-bus TVs (about 16,000 units).
Gyeonggi Province First Vice Governor for Administrative Affairs Kim Seong-jung said, “Heat wave disasters are worsening every year due to climate change, and the damage to vulnerable groups is the most worrisome situation,” and added, “We will closely monitor heat wave measures to ensure that they are properly implemented for the health and safety of vulnerable groups and other residents.”
