The present study is a preliminary attempt to effectively incorporate the environmental issue of coastal erosion into the environmental assessment process of Korea. We assess the status of the environmental assessment on coastal erosion for the previous development plans and provide potential directions for the improvement. The considerable project plans should be screened for the impact of coastal erosion, which occupies about 20% of the total project plans reviewed, and the ratio increased with project scale. In addition to screening process, most process including scoping, baseline study, impact assessment, and follow-up need to be improved. The potential directions of improvement are provided in terms of appropriate guideline development, employment of cumulative impact assessment, follow-up improvement and rearrangement of the preparation regulation of environmental assessment. Emphasis is given for follow-up process to review post-monitoring period, to employ science compensation, and to consider the establishment of relevant institution. Final suggestion is made for the establishments of comprehensive national plan to manage coastal erosion and streamlined environmental process from strategic to project levels based on the national plan.

우리나라 금융시장에서는 부동산담보 위주의 대출관행이 지속되고 있다. 이러한 대출관행은 부동산 수요의 유발로 부동산 가격상승의 원인이 될 뿐만 아니라 금융기관이 담보 부족을 이유로 중소 벤처기업자금 지원에 소극적이거나 기피하는 등 신용경색의 요인으로도 작용할 수 있다. 아울러 담보 부동산가격이 하락할 경우 금융기관의 부실이 될 수 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 금융기관의 낙후된 여신심사 및 사후관리기법을 선진화하고 효율적인 대출제도를 도입함으로써 중소 벤처기업의 신용수준에 부합하는 신용대출을 활성화하여야 한다. 본 연구는 중소 벤처기업의 신용대출을 활성화할 수 있는 방안들을 살펴보았다. 먼저 1980년대의 미국 및 일본의 금융위기와 이의 대응방안을 비교함으로써 담보대출의 문제점 및 개선을 위한 시사점을 살펴보았다. 다음으로 관계중시대출(relationship lending)을 통한 신용대출 활성화를 지적하였는데 관계중시대출은 금융기관이 고객과 밀접한 관계를 장기간 유지함으로써 고객에 대한 정보를 축적하여 금융서비스를 제공한다. 관계중시대출의 중소 벤처기업대출에 대한 시사점은 은행과 차입 중소 벤처기업은 긴밀한 관계유지가 장기적으로 모두에게 도움을 주는 합리적인 신뢰관계를 구축하여 신용대출을 가능하게 한다. 마지막으로 중소 벤처기업 신용대출의 활성화방안을 금융당국, 금융기관 그리고 중소 벤처기업으로 나누어서 각각 제시하였다.

금융시장에서의 경쟁이 치열해지면서 이제 국내 소비자금융기관들에게 수익성위주의 내실경영은 피할 수 없는 지상과제로 부상하고 있다. 이러한 목표를 성취하기 위해서는 우량고객을 위주로 한 기반강화와 철저한 사후관리를 통한 수익성향상이 이루어져야 한다. 특히, 자금운용처로 부상하고있는 개인고객들을 대상으로 하는 효과적인 대출마케팅의 수행은 소매금융기관들의 수익성제고에 절대적이라고 할 수 있다. 즉, 수익성을 지향하기 위해서는 고객관리를 보다 더 철저하게 하여야 하며 이를 위해서는 신용 및 수익성에 근거해서 산출된 평점에 따라 개인별 관리를 차별화하는데 있다고 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 우량고객들을 대상으로 대출마케팅을 활성화시키기 위한 고객평점모형의 효과성에 대해서 고찰해 보고자 하였다. 이를 위해서 신용평점모형에 대해서 자세히 알아보고 이어서 수익성에 근거한 평점모형에 대해서도 이론적으로 살펴보았다. 그리고 두 모형의 효과성을 비교하기 위해서 판별분석을 사용하여 우량 및 불량고객에 대한 예측력을 분석해 보았다. 분석결과 제1종오차에 대해서는 신용평점모형이, 제2종 오차에 대해서는 수익성평점모형이 보다 정교한 예측력을 나타냈다. 결론적으로 두 모형의 사용이 병행되는 통합적인 고객평점모형의 적용이 제안되어 졌다.

Certificates of Origin(C/O) are necessary to gain benefits from preferential tariff treatment under the Free Trade Agreement(FTA). The C/O can be issued by issuing authorities or by exporters themselves. Recently, due to signed FTA such as Korean-EU FTA, issuance of self-declared C/O by exporters is increasing. In order to be qualified to issue self -declared C/O, exporters are required to acquire Approved Exporter status. An Approved Exporter is only required to present an invoice to substitute the certificate. The invoice contains an Approved Exporter number and a declaration that states the goods comply with the origin requirements. Either certification or notarization is not necessary. In result, the exporters are responsible for application of a preferential tariff under the self-declared C/O which issued incorrectly, even if it is not intentional. Therefore, in this paper, we studied authorization for Approved Exporter status and the practical use of its status. If companies obtain more Approved Exporter status, the effects of FTA would be maximized due to application of a preferential tariff under the C/O.

Performance measurement and evaluation is a critical issue in public funded civil infrastructure projects in recent years. As a results, Korean government has introduced the related policies and regulations based on the foreign cases to evaluate public construction projects. However, construction circumstances are different from other countries and the results from adopted regulations are not satisfied. Therefore this research proposes the critical success factors(schedule, cost, productivity, change order, safety, quality) for public construction projects based on previous related research outputs to successfully implement construction performance evaluation. Then, this paper also proposes the weights for the critical success factors. The proposed weights are developed by AHP of construction experts. Furthermore, the paper shows the difference of the weights of the critical success factors by project participants (owner, constructor, engineering, and inspector). This efforts will enhance the ability to develop an effective performance evaluation process and system for public construction projects.

According to the post evaluation scheme in Korea of a public construction project which is more than 30 Billion KRW, project performance is evaluated by investigating outcomes and effects of the construction after the completion of the project. The current post evaluation results can be used for planning and estimating a construction project in the future. However, it is not easy to utilized for an on-going project because the system does not provide the phase-based performance of a project. Although project planning performance is important for project initiation, few attempt has been made to evaluate planning performance in Korea. The purpose of this study is to provide a conceptual performance evaluation of planning performance using preliminary feasibility study conducted by Korea Development Institute. This study developed a planning performance database using data extracted from preliminary feasibility study reports of the completed 354 road construction projects. This study analyzed the performance of the planning stage of road projects by developing absolute metrics such as standard construction cost and standard construction schedule based on a Lane-Km. Using the standard construction cost and schedule metrics, the planning performance was analyzed by project characteristics. The results of this study can be used for phase-based performance evaluation from planning phase to construction phase.

In order to prevent various accidents with construction machinery, Korea enacted the Construction Machinery Management Act to enhance safety. Until now, there has been a lack of systematic research related to traffic accidents with construction machinery. Therefore, domestic and foreign systems related to construction machinery were reviewed, and the current status was analyzed based on traffic accident data over the past 5 years to derive implications. It is necessary to ensure the safety of construction machinery by correcting institutional loopholes and preparing follow-up measures. In addition, it is necessary to create a separate traffic-safety education program for construction machinery operators to create an environment that can comply with safe road-driving methods and traffic laws.

This study was conducted to review the adequacy and applicability of the safety certification system for educational facilities which was implemented in 2021 and to derive possible improvements to the existing certification system. This study analyzed the existing certification system, examined similar systems from abroad, conducted interviews with certification experts, and presented the proposed improved system to experts for review and advice. The proposed model replaced the current certification process with three stages of follow-up management. This allows for problems that may occur in the evaluation process and the composition of evaluators to be prevented by applying a feedback system. In the review stage of the newly proposed certification system, certification experts recommended specifying the detailed standards of certification performance such as criteria for selecting examiners and arbitrators. They concluded that there were no fatal flaws in the overall structure of the evaluation system. According to the results of this review, the proposed evaluation system was proven to be an effective improvement to the existing system.

Recently, accumulation of technology, transfer, absorption, and commercialization is being significantly recognized as a key factor for sustainable growth of the 21st century global economy. The government established "Technology Transfer and Commercialization Promotion Act" In order that the technology developed at public research institutions can be transferred to the private sector and commercialized; the technology developed in the private sector can be traded and commercialized. Also, the Article 14 of "Technology Transfer and Commercialization Promotion Act" is concerning technology transfer agents' registration, promotion, and support: it introduced the special status system of technology transfer agents and the government registers, manages, and supervises it. In most developed countries, the technology transfer agency is transferred to the private sector and it is referred as a technology transfer agent or technology broker. In the domestic market, despite the introduction of the above special status system and the building a various organization and transfer medium system for boosting the market's revitalization, some problems occurred; because the registration system of a technology transfer agent and legal basis and system about its following-up control fall short. For example, recently technology transfer-related performance exemption has brought the activation of technology transfer agent's registration, but there was the limit of selecting the expert above a certain level. Therefore, some countermeasures for this are urgent, In addition, through a compulsory training completion system before the technology trade agent registration is prepared, a short period of curriculum was not sufficient to provide applicants various specialized knowledge. In this research, it is considered about the reform of technology transfer agent through its comparative study in China and Korea. Some improvements are suggested for expanding the market of technology transfer commercialization, assuring the agents' service and strengthening the competitiveness.

Under the Korea Building Act, anyone planning to build a building or buildings on a site over $200m^2$ must plant plants over a specific area. In large scale development this rule is adhered to well, but such is not the case in small scale development. Therefore, special attention must be given to small scale development. Thus, the purpose of this research is to analyze the current situation and practice of planting at small scale development sites in Seoul, and then suggest policies for improving them. In this study using the data covering Seongbuk-Gu and Gangnam-Gu, which was surveyed in 2002, the current situation and practice of planting at small scale development sites was analyzed. After a questionnaire survey was conducted with government officers and building owners, the same analysis was made. Then the policies for improvement were extracted. The results are as follows: 1. In superordinate planning stage, because the minimum standards are too low, those must be strengthened. Any district plan does not control planting in private building lots. This requests active application of planting in private building lots as a design control measure in district planning. 2. In the building design stage, there are no guidelines. The obligation of building set-back between adjacent buildings by the Korean Building Act produces mass shaded and inferior planting beds. The act also is blocking landscape architects' participation in small scale development. And wall installations deteriorate the streetscape and growth of plants with shading. Therefore guidelines must be made. 3. In each stage of the building permit, the permit for building completion, and maintenance the Korean Building Act is blocking landscape architects' participation in small scale development, so the planting plan is completely handled by nonprofessional persons. Therefore, the act should be amended in order to make way for landscape architects' participation in each stage of the small scale development process.
