지난해 8월 집중호우로 광주시는 평균 460㎜의 기록적인 폭우가 내려 광주천 등 17개 국가·지방하천 내 66곳에 제방유실, 하천친수시설 파손 등으로 65억여원의 피해를 입었다.

이에 광주시는 자치구와 협력해 시비 4억여원을 긴급 투입해 2차 피해발생 및 하천 내 주민편의시설(보안등, 산책로 등) 관련 응급복구를 신속히 추진해 지난해 11월 완료했다.

광주천 21곳에 대해서는 선제적으로 국고보조금 교부 이전에 실시설계를 추진, 공사를 발주해 순조롭게 추진하고 있다.

재해복구공사가 추진 중인 광주천은 현재 공정률 60%, 영산강, 황룡강 등은 공정률 15% 정도로 정상 추진 중에 있다.

이와 함께 광산구는 장록습지 장록교 위쪽을 지난해 11월부터 지난달까지 1억원을 투입해 수목 1000여그루를 정비했고, 나머지 전도 수목에 대해서는 시가 교부한 국비 1억7000만원 내에서 우기 전까지 최대한 정비하는 것을 목표로 하고 있다.

송진남 광주시 물순환정책과장은 “황룡강 장록습지 각종 쓰레기, 전도 수목 등 환경정비 및 하천 재해복구가 우기 전에 마무리될 수 있도록 최선의 노력을 다하겠다”고 말했다.
