To address the waste generated from the rise in visitors, Sinan County is implementing environmental management measures.
Since October 15, public cargo ships have been deployed to transport goods and maintain the environment around Heuksando and neighboring small islands.
As more people visit, plans are in place to ensure the natural beauty is preserved for a long time.

Sinan County plans to support half-price fares based on Heuksando's ferry rates in the future.
They will also actively seek national funding support to reduce local financial burdens for the program.
