Recently, the rise in the housing burden on young couples has led to a serious housing poverty among young people. The number of young people who move into public rental housing is very small because the eligibility for public rental housing is determined based on income, the status of housing subscription, and the size of the household. With this background, the government launched a public rental housing program called Happy Housing Project, which gives young people the priority to move in first. However, the program is facing an obstacle due to the opposition of local residents. The purpose of this paper is to examine whether public rental housing can induce the NIMBY syndrome through conducting a literature review, followed by an analysis of NIMBY syndrome around the currently supplied Happy House development areas, and finally analyzing the household characteristics in order to identify which households were prone to the NIMBY syndrome. To confirm the existence of the NIMBY syndrome, this paper comparatively analyzed the two groups using binary logit analysis. The first group consists of households that are against the Happy House policy, and the second group consists of households that are aware of the Happy House development taking place in their neighborhoods, and are against the development. This study considered the households against the Happy House development in their neighborhoods to have NIMBY tendencies, and focused on comparing the households with NIMBY tendencies with those who do not. To confirm whether the residents around the Happy House neighborhoods have NIMBY tendencies, this paper compared the two groups and confirmed that about 4% of the households have NIMBY tendencies. This paper subsequently analyzed the households with NIMBY tendencies, and found them to have a higher number of children, reside in apartments and reside in owned homes. The volume of the 2018 Happy Housing (35,000 households) is three times higher than that of 2017. The present study aims to analyze the tendency of residents who oppose the construction of Happy Housing so as to derive policy implications for the smooth provision of public rental housing.

This study tries to quantify the regional NIMBY costs to nuclear power plants. NIMBY costs are estimated as willingness to pays for avoiding nuclear power plants near residential areas through the contingent valuation method(CVM). In the study, it was assumed that the nuclear power plants were newly constructed around the residences. The result of 600 respondents living within a radius of 30 km of nuclear power plants compared to the result of 600 respondents living in the metropolitan area, which revealed that there were significant NIMBY costs to the construction of nuclear power plants in all residences. By region, the willingness to pay in the metropolitan area was greater than that in the nuclear power areas. This study focuses on NIMBY to nuclear power plants from a regional point of view, which can provide important information in establishing prudent and sound nuclear power policies.

This study applies two-choice model to identify the major determinants of NIMBY attitudes when a large-scale composting facility is built around a residential area. Using a survey data of residents in Jeju City, Korea, logit estimation is implemented. The empirical results are consistent with the implication of the specified model: a representative resident's NIMBY attitude is positively (negatively) affected by "Negative Neighborhood Characteristic Variables" ("Positive Wealth Attribute variables"). Socio-demographic variables may be summarized as mostly statistically insignificant, which implies that policy makers may have to take into consideration their region-specific socio-demographic factors instead of simply emulating the policies which have been successful elsewhere.

In route selection process of NIMBY facilities, many conflicts occur due to route selection procedure and NIMBY syndrome. Especially, the social conflicts surrounding the site selection and operation are frequent enough to account for 70% of the total conflict cases, causing significant losses. To resolve the conflict in route selection, social conflicts are considered. Therefore, this study proposes an improved process of selecting route considering social conflicts in the power transmission line. First, the analysis of previous research trends and interviews with experts revealed the improved exclusion zone criteria, the factors and priorities of NIMBY facilities. After selecting the candidate routes, the optimal route is selected by using Fuzzy-TOPSIS. Hence, 83.3% of six experts have verified that this model minimizes conflicts and has sufficient applicability. The proposed model is expected to be used as a tool to minimize social conflict in the selection process of the power transmission line in the early stage of the project.

In order to democractically resolve the "not-in-my-backyard" (Nimby syndrome) which is widespread in Korea, the policy of the Ministry of Environmnt(MOE) is that the MOE is willing to negotiate with local inhabitants who refuse to allow the establishment of waste treatment facilities, and that such facilities will be safety and effectively constructed and managed. According to this policy, the MOE has developed a basic plan to construct 255 incinerators by the year 2001, and establish 42 sanitary landfill sites and 5 specific waste treatment facilities in 1994.s in 1994.

This paper aims to suggest the policies to solve the short supply of tree burial sites by NIMBY syndrome. For the purpose of this study, we conducted a site visit investigation and interviewed on the solved cases of NIMBY syndrome to tree burial sites and analyzed the factors to solve effectively the loss of residents induced from the burial facilities image of tree burial sites. As the result, in domestic cases, this study deduced the successful types which are providing an economical compensation, making the tree burial sites in cemeteries and making the sites in temple forests. In foreign cases, the types are deduced that made the tree burial sites as the place of attraction image not of cemeteries, and that induced the voluntary participation of residents by economic incentive. Based on such results, this study suggested the solution plans of NIMBY syndrome such as redevelopment of cemeteries, converting the image of tree burial sites into that of attraction places, and inducing PIMFY of residents by contest.

Land price can be affected by convenience or psychological repulsion like PIMFY (Please In My Front Yard) or NIMBY (Not In My Back Yard) for various facilities. The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether non-preferred facilities are related to NIMBY impact that negatively affect land prices using the spatial econometrics models which are spatial autoregressive models (SAR), spatial errors models (SEM), and general spatial model (SAC). The land price in urban area increases by 0.07-0.2% when the distance from aversion facilities increases by 1%. However, the land price in rural areas decreases when the distance from aversion or pollution facilities increase. Therefore, these facilities in rural areas located in the areas with higher land price because funeral homes located in center of rural administrative areas and charnel house or crematorium located in the fringe of urban areas. That is, this study explain the difference between land price and non-preferred facilities in urban and rural areas and why there are more N IMBY symptoms in urban areas.

향후 우리 군은 작전소요 등 특별한 경우를 제외하고는 불용탄의 야외처리를 단계적으로 축소하지 않으면 안 될 것이며 이에 대한 환경감시는 더욱 강화될 것이다. 뿐만 아니라 NIMBY 현상 등 지역 이기주의에 따라 현재기술로 가장 안전하다고 입증된 소각 대체기술로서 환경과 폭발안전을 도모할 수 있는 새로운 기술이 요구되고 있다.
