There are groundwater trouble by high-salinity yield inducing sea-water intrusion in Cheju Island. It is used groundwater-GIS(Well-lnfo) in the maintenance and management of groundwater in Cheju Island to grasp groundwater trouble area and cause of high-salinity yield. For 16 wells certain to yield high-salinity, we logged specific electrical conductivity(EC) and tried to get hold of freshwater and saltwater relationship. As result of distribution of $Cl^-$ by depth, it is showed up groundwater trouble by high-salinity yield in the east coastal area and the partly north coastal area. The reason of high-salinity groundwater yield are low-groundwater level by the structure of geology and low-hydraulic gradient etc. There is necessity for management to development and use of groundwater in the high-salinity area, special management area.

In recent years due to the development of urban and underground space, the number of ground disasters is increasing, and it is also leading to social problems. To solve the problem, a grouting method is generally used. However, the grouting method has material (grout) limitations in permeability, gelation properties and tensile resistance. Therefore, research on grout materials mixed with fibers is actively carried out to improve the problems. However, in the actual ground injection process, many difficulties have been faced causing the blockage of the inlet port and the injection tube. In this study, 'CNT-mixed grout material' was developed using CNT powder that can reinforce the tensile strength of soils. The uniaxial compressive and tensile strength tests were performed to obtain the optimal content and mechanical properties of the CNT Powder-mixed grout. It was found that the optimal CNT powder content is 0.5% that gives the average maximum strength. A one-dimensional injection test and the bulb formation test were carried out, and it was identified that the injection rate and bulb form could be controlled by pressure and mixing ratio. Field application of the CNT-Mixed grout is simulated using numerical analysis of slopes, foundations, and tunnels reinforced in several types. The positive effect of reducing plastic ranges and settlements was confirmed.

Monitoring the injection degree of biopolymers in soils is required in estimating the performance of biopolymer-treated grounds. In this study, the degree of saturation and injection process of biopolymer solutions in sandy soils were evaluated using electrical resistivity. To assess the changes in electrical resistivity according to the contents of the biopolymer solutions, electrical resistivities were measured for Jumunjin sand-xanthan gum biopolymer solution (weight concentration of 0.5%) mixtures with different degrees of saturation of 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100%. In addition, electrical resistivities were measured at eight layers in oven-dried Jumunjin sand during the upward injection of the xanthan gum biopolymer solution to monitor the injection process. Experimental results showed that the electrical resistivity decreased as the degree of saturation of the mixture increased, and their relationship was constructed. During the injection of the xanthan gum biopolymer solution into the sandy soils, the electrical resistivity decreased and converged and the degree of saturation at each layer could be estimated on the basis of the above-constructed relationship. This study demonstrated that electrical resistivity may be an effective physical property for monitoring the injection degree of biopolymer solutions in the ground.
