The South Jeolla-Gwangju Integrated Special City has begun securing fill material for the Honam semiconductor industrial complex. Starting Wednesday, the city began stockpiling excavated soil from construction at Champions City — a development on the former Ilshin Spinning site — at a city-owned lot in Deokhung-dong, Seo-gu.
The soil is expected to serve as landfill for ground reinforcement work at the 2.08 million-square-meter site south of Gwangju Air Base, where a munitions depot is slated for relocation, to support the construction of two semiconductor fabrication plants.
