Buyeo County has established the ‘Buyeo County Transmission Line Response Public-Private Committee’ to oppose the construction of ultra-high-voltage transmission lines, specifically citing the 345kV Saemangeum-Sinseosan project. 

Led by the Vice County Governor, the committee includes local council members, energy experts, and representatives from the Korea Electric Power Corporation. The group seeks to protect resident property rights and prevent community dissolution caused by potential environmental damage and population outflow. 

The committee has issued a resolution demanding that the government and Korea Electric Power Corporation guarantee resident rights. They are also calling for the creation of specialized bodies to promote balanced national development and prevent the concentration of energy burdens in rural areas to meet metropolitan demand.
