An additional fire broke out again at the fire site in Sinjin Port, Geunheung-myeon, Taean-gun, where the remaining fires were being cleaned up. Controversy over talent was inevitable due to the fire caused by the wreckage of a fishing boat that had caught fire. Chungnam Province Governor Yang Seung-jo is also known to be in a hurry to the scene of the fire.

The fire at Taean Sinjin Port, which occurred at around 3:31 am today, was in the state of being cleared up by the fire department and the coast guard at around 10 am. However, around 10:30, four FRP fishing boats moored at the Magico Breakwater across from Sinjin Port caught fire. The fire spread further and eventually 8 ships suffered fire damage.

Witnesses testified that the wreckage of an FRP ship that had previously ignited on fire ignited the ship at anchor. Fishermen and ship owners are accusing the fire of re-occurring due to the negligence of the authorities.

Meanwhile, it is reported that Chungnam Governor Yang Seung-jo is urgently coming to the Taean New Port site.

Shinjindo ship fire, remaining fire in progress
Initiation of marine pollution prevention work, estimated damage of more than 20 billion units

Ship fires at Sinjin Port, a nationally designated Class 1 port in Geunheung-myeon, Taean-gun, Chungcheongnam-do, are in the state of clearing up remaining payments as of 9 am.

The ship fire that occurred around 3:30 a.m. that day burned 16 vessels (estimated) of Angang nets, traps, and fishing boats, and it seems that the damage amounted to around 20 billion won.

The firefighting authorities issued the second stage of response and began to clean up the remaining fires around 7:30 am, which was about 4 hours after the fire occurred, but the fishing boats are not easily extinguished due to the large amount of plastic and oil. It seems that it will only be possible in the afternoon until the full balance is cleared. Several sea-gyeong-do control boats are being mobilized to extinguish fires and prevent marine pollution.

Fire officials said, “Because the ships were connected to each other and there was a strong wind, a fire occurred on several ships at once,” he said. “It was difficult to extinguish a lot of oil and plastic materials in fishing boats.”

Fortunately, the two sailors suffered minor injuries, and there is no human injury. Accurate calculation of damage is expected to be possible within 24 days.

Meanwhile, fishermen and boat owners, who were preparing to depart ahead of the full-scale fishing season, formed an emergency response committee and complained strongly against the initial response of the relevant authorities.

17 fishing boats burned in fire at Taean’s Sinjin Port… 2 injured

At around 3:31 am on the 23rd, a fire broke out in a fishing boat moored at Sinjin Port, Sinjin-dori, Geunheung-myeon, Taean-gun, Chungcheongnam-do, and 17 fishing boats were burned and two fishermen were injured.

The fire completely burned 9 moored ships in a strong northwest wind of 6 to 8 meters per second. In addition, a total of 17 ships were damaged as a fire spread to nearby ships, and the remaining fires are being cleaned up as of 7 o’clock.

The damage was large because the fire spread with flammable substances such as FRP hull and oil inside the ship. The Taean Fire Department started to extinguish the fire by issuing the first step of the response, but struggled to catch the fire.
