오염물질은 배출원의 형태에 따라 점오염물질과 비점오염물질로 구분하고 있고 점오염물질은 생활하수, 산업폐수, 축산폐수, 환경기초시설 방류수 등으로 발생원이 명확하고 수집하여 처리 및 관리가 용이하나 비점오염물질은 배출위치가 명확하지 않으며, 강우 시 일시적으로 대량 배출되는 특징을 가진 농경지, 도로, 대지, 임야 등에서 배출되는 오염물질을 말한다. 우리나라에서 비점오염은 전체 수질오염의 42~67%(2003년)를 차지하는 것으로 나타났고, 2015년에는 전체 수질오염의 65~75%에 이를 것으로 예상되고 있다. 이 중 농업 비점오염원은 총 수질 오염량의 30%이상을 차지할 것으로 추정하고 있으나 이를 저감하기 위한 최적관리방법의 효과검증에 관한 연구는 아직 미미한 상태이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 농경지 중 밭에서 발생하는 비점오염을 저감하기 위한 기법으로 다양한 규모와 형태의 Silt Fence/식생밭두렁/침사구를 설치하여 밭 비점오염에 대한 저감효과를 평가하고 제어대책을 개발하여 최적관리기법을 제시하고 이에 대한 매뉴얼을 개발하기 위한 기초연구를 실시하려 한다. Silt Fence는 주로 건설공사현장에서 홍수유출 발생 시 인접한 하천 및 호소 등으로 유사 및 오염물질이 유입되는 것을 방지하기 위해 임시적으로 설치하는 시설로 합성 직물 필터를 나무나 금속 막대로 연결하여 등고선 방향으로 설치하는 것으로 대상 지역의 토양이 교란되기 전에 그 지역 아래쪽에 설치한다. 식생밭두렁은 밭의 이랑의 길이가 길어질수록 강우 시 빗물이 하단에 이를 때 늘어난 유량과 빠른 유속으로 토양침식이 가중되는데, 이때 30~35m간격으로 식생밭두렁을 설치하게 되면 상부와 하부의 침식정도가 유사한 경향을 보여 식생밭두렁을 설치하지 않은 지역에 비해 토양의 침식정도가 작게 나타나게 된다. 이러한 Silt Fence/식생밭두렁/침사구의 밭 비점오염의 저감효과 평가 및 제어대책 개발을 위한 기초 실험을 수행하기 위해 경상남도 사천시 용현면 선진리 일대에 시험포장을 조성 하였으며, 시험포장내에 6개의 Plot을 만들어 하단부에 포장에서의 유출수의 유량을 측정하기 위해 플룸을 설치하였고 실내실험을 통해 플룸의 수위-유량관계 곡선을 작성하였다. 포장의 토양특성을 판별하기 위해 Plot별로 토양시료를 채취하여 특성을 분석 한 결과 6개 Plot모두 모래함량이 많은 점토질 사질토로 분류되었다. 향후 강우 시 시험포장에서 발생하는 유출수의 수질을 분석하고 Silt Fence/식생밭두렁/침사구의 오염물질 저감효과를 분석하여 제어대책을 개발하게 되면 농업수자원확보를 위한 관리방안 선정을 위한 정책수립에 활용될 수 있으며 비점오염 배출을 최소화시켜 수질의 개선에 기여할 뿐만 아니라 우리나라 농업에 적합한 최적영농관리기술을 개발 할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

In this study, a study on how to use a fire hydrant as a heat wave reduction facility through hydraulic analysis of the water supply pipe network was conducted. Assuming that the fire hydrant installation point is open for heat wave reduction, the water pressure at each point was derived. And the reduction rate of the temperature according to the hydrant watering was compared with the watering area according to the operation of the watering truck. The watering area according to the opening of the fire hydrant was calculated by deriving the pressure value at the node where the fire hydrant was installed through hydraulic analysis of the water pipe network, and then using the watering radius relational expression according to the pressure value. As a result of applying the proposed methodology to two real city areas, the temperature reduction effect of the watering method by a fire hydrant can be derived lower than the watering method by a watering truck according to the difference in the absolute watering area. However, unlike a watering truck, a fire hydrant does not have a relative restriction on the amount of water supply and is expected to allows continuous divided spraying of the same area.

Radial collector wells (RCWs) have been managed by Korea Rural Community Corporation (KRC) since 1983, installing 98 wells for agriculture in rural area over the country. Among them, 20 wells were installed upstream of 5 subsurface dams and the remaining were installed regardless of the subsurface dam. Most of RCWs have been developed in 1980s and 1990s, and 83 wells have been passed more than 20 years after construction. The number of horizontal arms for RCWs varies from 9 to 28, with length and diameter being 10~30 m and 65 mm, respectively. The central caisson with an inner diameter of 3.5 m was commonly constructed to a depth of 10 m. The maximum pumping rates in RCWs, which are located at distances of 10 to 1,200 m from the river, are 2,000~10,000 m³/day. RCW has a fundamental problem that reduced pumping capacity and degraded well efficiency, due to the physical and chemical clogging. From the feasibility test for improving RCW performance, specific capacity increased to 67% after rehabilitation. TV logging for RCW horizontal arm shows that near the caisson is more severe clogging. From the results of this study, KRC has established the guidebook for monitoring and improving well efficiency through physical/chemical treatment, well logging, and hydraulic tests and managed RCWs periodically with its rehabilitation methods.

Impermeable surfaces such as transportation land uses including roads and parking lots accumulate high heavy metals and particulate matters concentration especially during dry season which worsens the river water quality and distort the water circulation system during rainfall events. Recently, the government has been promoting policies to install Low Impact Development (LID) facilities such as permeable pavements or grass blocks in parking lots or pavements. However, transition of asphalt-paved surfaces to permeable pavement generated asphalt wastes which are detrimental to the environment and has cost implications due to its removal and disposal. Therefore this study was conducted to provide a method of constructing a cost-effective permeable pavement to reduce waste generation and cost. In this study, comparative analysis of the water circulation capacity and economic efficiency of the traditional construction method and new method proposed in this study through the lab-scale experiment. The proposed method was to make holes in existing asphalt pavements, layout geotextile fabric and permeable base media such as sand before compaction. After compaction, layout grass blocks on the compacted base media then layout sand in between each grass blocks before compaction. Apparently, there was no significant difference between the traditional installation method of permeable pavement and the proposed method in this study considering surface runoff, infiltrated volume, stored volume, and rainfall-runoff delay time. The proposed method in this study generated 86% less wastes compared to the traditional installation method and has 70% cost reduction considering asphalt removal and disposal. The construction method proposed in this study yielded similar performance compared to the traditional installation method and water circulation effect, but was proven to be less complicated and economical.

This study aims to illuminated landscape of Joseon Dynasty in the end of 19th century when Joseon dynasty began to modernize through the perspective of Westerners. Historical meaning to Western people's landscape records has been preceded. And landscape typology and their perception were analyzed. The results were as follows. First, the Westerners who visited Joseon dynasty at that time were involved in the historical and political situation of the Joseon Dynasty or understood their culture through traveling for so long. And record of Westerners is a significant data to analyze scenery at that time because common contents appear in various books. Second, the landscape of Joseon dynasty that appears in Western records was mainly recorded in small towns and villages, natural environments, scenic sites, historic sites, modern facilities, and cultivated areas. Small towns and villages are mainly mentioned with shabby alleys and dense houses. And natural landscape were identified to mountain landscapes and diverse geomorphological landscape that surrounding vegetation along the coast and rivers. The palaces, fortress and temples were recorded as main objects of scenic sites and historic site. And western-style buildings such as foreign legations and settlements, churches and schools were mentioned in the modernized facilities. A cultivated land was confirmed to be underdeveloped and neglected, but as range of view became wider, it was seen to a peaceful and prosperous rural landscape. Third, Westerners' landscape perception of Joseon dynasty at that time can be deduced from positive or negative perceptions. The residential environment was perceived as negative because it was unsanitary and backward. On the contrary, outstanding natural landscapes, scenic sites and historic sites, and upper class gardens were perceived as positive. For modernized landscapes, positive and negative perceptions were similarly mentioned. Positive perceptions were formed in improvement of civilized landscape, and appeared negative perception because damaged traditional landscapes and heterogeneity.
