우리나라의 경우 비점오염원에 의한 오염부하 기여도가 점차 증가하면서 '06년 관련 법규 개정을 통해 일정 규모 이상의 개발사업에 대해서는 비점오염저감시설 설치를 의무화하였으며, '11년 기준 국내에는 약 6,000여개 이상의 저감시설이 설치되었다. 해당 시설에 대한 모니터링 결과 장치형에 비해 자연형이 처리효율 및 유지관리 측면에서 유리한 것으로 보고되면서 환경부는 개발사업에 대해 저영향개발기법(LID)의 적용을 의무화하는 방안을 추진 중이다. 개발사업에 있어 LID는 토지이용기법을 통해 우수 유출과 오염원 유출을 저감하고자 하는 기법으로, 비용 및 유지관리 측면에서는 유리하나 기존 단위시설 적용기법에 비해 계획적인 요소가 강해 적용 확대 및 의무화가 용이하지 않은 한계가 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 LID 적용 확대와 관련된 문제점을 분석하고 적용 의무화를 위해 필요한 대안을 모색해 보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 해당 기법 자체가 가지는 한계와 제도적인 문제점을 분석하였으며, LID 기법의 확대 적용을 위해 필요한 대안을 제안하였다. 분석 결과, LID 기법은 기존 장치형 시설에 비해 계획기법의 측면이 커 기술개발이 어려울 뿐만 아니라, 저감시설의 적용여부에 대한 검증도 곤란한 것으로 분석되었다. 또한, 처리효율 계량화가 어려워 오염총량제와 연계된 오염부하 삭감효과 인정이 곤란해 확대 적용에 한계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 상기의 분석결과에 근거할 때, LID 기법의 확대 적용은 국내의 제도적 여건 및 LID 기법 자체의 한계를 감안하여 단계적으로 추진되어야 할 것으로 판단되며, 조속한 확대 시행을 위해서는 다음의 방안 마련을 제안한다. 첫째, 적용 여부에 대한 판단이 모호한 단점을 보완하기 위해 적정 적용여부를 심의할 수 있는 인증제도 도입을 제안한다. 이 제도는 친환경건축물인증제도 등 기존 유사 제도에 항목을 추가하는 방법과 별도의 제도를 신설하는 방법이 가능할 것이다. 둘째, 처리효율 정량화를 위해 기존 농도 위주의 처리효율 개념을 벗어나 유량 개념의 처리효율 산정이 필요하다. 즉, 처리용량 범위내에서 외부에 유출없이 우수저류 및 침투가 가능한 경우 전량 처리되는 것으로 간주하는 방식이다. 연구결과로 제안한 LID 기법 적용에 대한 인증제도 마련과 유량개념의 처리효율 산정방안이 도입된다면, 보다 조속한 시일내 LID 기법의 확대 적용이 가능할 것이다.

National Research Foundation of Korea (NRF) provides underpinning to boost international and domestic competitiveness in basic science and engineering (S&E) research. In 2012, NRF came up with the idea about implementing koreanized grant funding system and a NRF grant funding mechanism on basic research was applied to General Researcher program. The main components of the mechanism are 1) no final evaluation, instead intensive evaluation for next proposal submission, 2) no paper account report, instead reporting it online, 3) no lengthy final report, instead unloading a brief overview of research achievements. For successful establishment of the NRF grant funding mechanism, the quality and quantity-based quantitative guidelines of research achievement for various research areas are essential. In this study, we suggest 3 quantitative indexes and these quantitative guidelines provides a supplementary tool for researcher's capability review. These guidelines will be also useful to elevate the reliability and objectivity of peer review.

The market trends of automatic meter reading associated with smart water meters were investigated. Also, recent developments and field applications of key technology for automatic meter reading associated with smart water meters were analyzed. Smart water meters have been manufactured mostly in United States and Europe and have been expanded their business to Asia. Integrated water management system combining with the additional functions such as real-time consumption metering, cost notification, water conservation, leak detection, water quality monitoring, and flow control have been operated in automatic meter reading. Both water quality and quantity data measured from smart water meters and sensors were transferred to data concentration units through neighborhood area network, and then were transferred to integrated server through wide area network. The data transfer methods were determined by comprehensively considering urban scale, density of smart water meters, power supply and network topologies. Common data collection methods such as fixed network to data concentation units, vehicles drive by, people walk by, and drone fly by have been applied. The automatic meter reading associated with smart water meters are spread throughout the world, and both water and energy savings result in saving the money and reducing the greenhouse gases emission.

The complexity and expensiveness of water resources projects have made optimum operation and design by computer-based techniques of increasing interest in recent years. Water resources problems in real world need many decisions under numerous constraints. In addition there are nonlinearities in the state and return function. This mathematical and technical troublesome must be overcome so that the optimum operation polices are determined. Then traditional dynamic optimization method encountered two major-cruxes: variable discretization and appearance of constraints. Even several recent methods which based on the Differential Dynamic Programming(DDP) have some difficulties in handling of constraints. This paper has presented New DDP which is applicable to multi-reservoir control. It is intended that the method suggested here is superior to abailable alternatives. This belief is supported by analysis and experiments(New DDT does not suffer course of dimensionality and requires no discretization and is able to handle easily all constraints nonlinearity).

COVID-19 led to an increased need for mountainous urban parks in the city that can be enjoyed while moving rather than staying put. However, studies on the economic value of mountainous urban parks have been insufficient. As a result, this study investigates the economic value of Gyeyangsan, a mountainous urban park located in the city, by quantifying the value of natural resources provided to residents and analyzing the factors affecting these values. The results are summarized below. First, according to the economic value assessment of Gyeyangsan, the use value was 2,210 won per person or 4.42 billion won per year, and the preservation value was 6,182 won per household, or 129.37 billion won. Gyeyangsan's total assets value was assessed as 3.68 trillion won. Second, according to the estimates of the willingness to pay and the determinants for the use-value, the frequency of visits, age, and use satisfaction significantly impacted the intention to pay for the use-value. Third, according to the estimates of the willingness to pay and the determinants for the preservation value, the intention to revisit, volunteer participation, educational level, gender, and residence significantly influenced the intention to pay for the preservation value. According to the findings of this study, it will be possible to make crucial policy implications when setting a direction for future park management by presenting a practical policy plan for the maintenance of mountain parks in downtown areas and will broaden the scope of research.

When hot weather concrete is utilized, the cooling methods of cooling pipe, liquid nitrogen, ice, etc., are used to prevent the poor consistency and cold joint due to high temperature. These methods, however, spike the production cost and energy consumption, and make quality control difficult. Among these methods is one that involves the use of a retarder. Although economical, retarder is caused difficulty of retarded hardening and setting time control due to inaccurate weighing and poor working condition. Therefore, how to make a tablet for hot weather concrete, as with the existing pharmacy and foods, is discussed in this study, including the following items: mortar setting time, flow test by elapsed time, physical and mechanical properties of concrete. As a result, gluconic acid is superior to lignosulfonic acid and the possibility of using them for such purpose without quality degradation was confirmed in this study, when retarder is tabletting.
