Jeju Island is seeking reliable ways to secure alternative water resources using rainwater in order to conserve and manage its groundwater as sustainable water resources. The purpose of this study is to investigate the rainwater storage capability of small-size storage facilities installed at farmhouses in Uigwi and Wimi of Namwon-eup region. The rainwater outflows from the storage facilities in rain events were analyzed. The appropriate size of rainwater utilizing facilities are suggested to be about 5,800 ㎥ in Uigwi area and 4,900 ㎥ in Wimi area based on the calculation from the rainfall frequency and runoff amounts. If those facilities are put into operation in Uigwi and Wimi area, it is estimated approximately 32.3 and 11.5% of total agricultural water can be supplied by the facilities. Wimi area showed low rainwater usage because of less number of facilities relative to the size of farm areas and less intensive underground water usage. It is analyzed that more than 55% of agricultural water can be supplied by rainwater if 70 facilities without the rainwater facilities are connected to the rainwater utilizing facilities.

This study was conducted to promote reliability of the simulated result for the long-term streamflow in Daecheong watershed. This system was constructed by the SSARR model that considered the effect of small scale irrigation facilities. We investigated the present condition of small scale irrigation facilities and analyzed the relation between irrigation facilities and river discharge. According to the analysis result about the effect of irrigation facilities, the error occurrence frequency was increased at the sub-basin that has many reservoirs and during the second quarter except for the 2003 year. Therefore, we created the relative equation between small irrigation facilities and river water and estimated the simulated streamflow for the main stations. Consequently, error of the runoff simulated with considering small scale irrigation facilities was decreased than that without considering small scale irrigation facilities at all.

Recently, many water treatment facilities are operated by automatic control or by remote control. These high technology control systems require more stable power supply than before Badly most automatic control systems adopted in water treatment facilities are non-linear load which generates electrical harmonics inevitably. This study is intended to measure and analyze the electrical harmonics occurred at the chemicals control device which is inverter application circuit. and to show the effect of the harmonics filter.

Due to the unusual change in the weather to be increased suddenly, the damage of the lightning accident is recently more increased than before. Many water treatment facilities are operated by automatic control or by remote control. Automatic control systems are adopted in water treatment facilities. So there are damaged by lightning inevitably. This study is intended to measure and analyze the lightning accident occurred by the lightning and to show the methods minimizing the lightning accidents.

This study aims to establish basic data for efficient management of rural water by analyzing regional irrigation facilities and benefitted areas in the statistical yearbook of land and water development for agriculture at the watershed level. For 511 domestic rural water use areas, water storage facilities (reservoirs, pumping & drainage stations, intake weirs, infiltration galleries, and tube wells) are spatially distributed, and the benefitted areas provided at the city/county level are divided by water use area to provide agricultural water supply facilities. The characteristics of rural water district areas such as benefitted area, were analyzed by basin. The average area of Korea's 511 rural water districts is 19,638 ha. The average benefitted area by rural water district is 1,270 ha, with the Geum River basin at 2,220 ha and the Yeongsan River basin at 1,868 ha, which is larger than the overall average. The Han River basin at 807 ha, the Nakdong River basin at 1,121 ha, and the Seomjing River basin at 938 ha are smaller than the overall average. The results of this basic analysis are expected to be used to set the direction of various supply and demand management projects that take into account the rational and scientific use and distribution of rural water and the characteristics of water use areas by presenting a quantitative definition of Korea's agricultural water districts.

The runoff will be changed in the future due to climate change, and this phenomenon affects the flood inflow to Water Resources Facilities (WRF) and its production. This study has evaluated the electric power generation of WRF in North Korea as climate change. The WRF can produce the electric power by rotating the hydraulic turbine using the energy of water. In other words, it converts the potential energy to the kinetic energy, then the kinetic energy to the electric energy. As a result of this study, the amount of power generation of WRF in North Korea decreased from 2011 to 2040, and increased from 2041 to 2100, comparing with present. In other words, the productivity will decrease at first (2011~2040) but increase (2041~2100). It is because there will be new facilities for climate change, and the capacities of them will be getting far better than the existing facilities. The existing North Korean WRFs are vulnerable to the effects of climate change, and it is judged that the new North Korean WRFs are advantageously located in the influence of climate change.

A project constructing sewerage facilities in 9 upstream areas of 7 multi-purpose dams will have been completed by 2011. After all constructing and retrofitting of the new and the existing sewerage facilities, integrated management system with operation and control functions for the each levels of facilities will also be utilized. In this study, we studied how to compose the organization taking responsibility of the integrated management system and analysed human resources saving effect against conventional method of individual management of each sewerage facility. As a result, a method estimating the human resources in employing the integrated management among several sewerage facilities at upstream areas of dams were presented and some 23% of human resources could be saved by integrated management. Commissioning to a specialized public institute showed the highest B/C ratio of 4.5 among commissioning to local public corporations, commissioning to private corporations, and role-sharing partnership, etc.

In this study, legislative and policy issues related to advancing the maintenance system of water resource facilities were presented by investigating and analyzing the degree of aging and management status of water resource facilities. Data from the comprehensive Facility Management System (FMS) operated by the Korea Infrastructure Safety Corporation were collected and used to analyze the aging of water resource facilities. Using safety grade data categorized by facility, type, local area, and grade, the ratio of dangerous facilities and the aging rate were calculated to analyze the status of water resource facilities and guidelines and manuals related to water resource facilities were investigated. Through this, four required actions to address legislative and policy issues were presented: 1) Readjusting the scope of water resource facilities and supplementing guidelines and manuals, 2) Establishing a maintenance system considering changes in disaster conditions, 3) Improving the FMS and activating standard linkage services, and 4) Establishing a facility asset management system.
