[Background]


Spray painting during construction or repainting of apartment buildings causes significant fine dust/paint drift, leading to health concerns and complaints. It is necessary to mandate roller (brush) painting—which reduces drift by more than 50%—especially near facilities used by vulnerable groups (children, elderly).


[Main Points]


    * Expanding the scope of reporting to include facilities for vulnerable groups (nurseries, schools, welfare centers).

    * Mandating the roller (brush) method for the exterior of these newly added facilities (including fences and walls) to replace the spray method.
