It has been known that soil erosion caused by water has been a serious problem worldwide. Thus various modeling techniques for conservationists, farmers, and other land users have been developed and utilized to estimate effects of numerous site-specific Best Management Practices on soil erosion reduction. The physical process-based WEPP model would provide both temporal and spatial estimates of soil loss within small watersheds and for hillslope profiles within small watersheds. Thus, the WEPP watershed version was applied to study watershed, located at Jawoon-ri, Gangwon to simulate diversion ditch and vegetated swale with detailed input data set. The sediment yield and runoff reduction rates reduced by 5.8% and 29.6% with diversion ditch and 9.8% and 14.5% with vegetated swale. With vegetated diversion ditch, runoff and sediment yield could be reduced by 11.8% and 40.4%, respectively. Based on the results obtained in this study, the WEPP model would be an useful tool to measure runoff and sediment yield reduction and establish site-specific sediment reduction best management plan.

도시 개발로 인한 불투수면의 증가 등으로 도시 수문환경의 변화와 물순환 시스템의 훼손 등이 발생하고 있다. 이러한 현상은 도시 홍수 위험의 증가, 유출량의 증가, 증발산량의 감소, 토양 침투량의 감소와 더불어 토양생태계, 지하수환경 및 하천 환경 등에 영향을 미친다. 여기에 비점오염원의 증가로 인한 하천 등의 수질 및 수생태계 영향 등 전반적으로 도시환경에 미치는 영향은 지대하다. 이에 기존의 중앙집중식 빗물관리에서 벗어나 발생원에서 빗물을 관리하는 자연순응형의 분산식 빗물관리 방식 및 그 시스템의 적용은 미국과 독일을 비롯한 유럽에서 정책화되어 있다. 이들 국가에서는 이러한 시스템의 적용에 따른 효과 모니터링을 추진하고 있는 상황이다. 우리나라는 이러한 자연형 물순환 시스템의 도시 적용을 이제 시도하고 있으며, 그 일환으로 아산신도시에 적용을 위한 사전 데이터 확보를 위해 식생수로를 아산지역의 주차장 유출수를 처리하기 위해 설치하였다. 본 연구에서는 주차장 유출수 관리를 위한 발생원 처리 시설인 식생수로의 설치, 운영 등에 대한 내용을 소개하고자 한다.

Urbanization can be significantly affected the hydrologic cycle by increasing flood discharge and heat flux. In order to mitigate these modifications in urban areas, Low Impact Development (LID) technique has been designed and applied in Korea. In order to estimate runoff reduction rate using SWMM LID model, the characteristics of five LID techniques was firstly analyzed for water balance. Vegetated swale and green roof were not reduce flood discharge nor infiltration amount. On the other hand, porous pavement and infiltration trench were captured by infiltration function. The flood reduction rate with LID is substantially affected by their structures and properties, e.g., the percentage of the area installed with LID components and the percentage of the drainage area of the LID components.

Low Impact Development (LID) techniques are eco-friendly storm water management process for water circulation restoration and non-point pollutant reduction. In this study, four LID techniques (Small constructed wetland, Infiltration trench box, Infiltration trench, Vegetated swale) were selected and installed as a real size at the real site. All facilities were evaluated as monitoring under the real environmental climate situation and an artificial rain with exceeding design rainfall. In various rainfall, runoff reduction efficiency and non-point pollutant removal efficiency are increased to the bigger Surface Area of LID (SA)/Catchment Area (CA) ratio and the bigger Storage Volume of LID (SV)/Catchment Area (CA) ratio. Runoff did not occur at all rainfall event (max. 17.2 mm) in infiltration trench and vegetated swale. But Small constructed wetland was more efficient at less than 10 mm, a efficiency of infiltration trench box was similar at different rainfall. Although different conditions (such as structural material of LID, rainfall flow rate, antecedent dry periods), LID techniques are good effects not only water circulation improvement but also water quality improvement.

This study evaluated the ecotoxicological properties of livestock waste water treated by a LID (Low Impact Development) system, using a mixture of bio-reeds and bio-ceramics as suitable bed media for a subsequent treatment process of a livestock wastewater treatment plant. The relationship between the pollutant reduction rate and the ecotoxicity was analyzed with the effluents from the inlet pilot plant, with vegetated swale and wetlands and the batch type of an infiltration trench. Each pilot plant consisted of a bio process using bio-reeds and bio-ceramics as bed media, as well as a general process using general reeds and a bed as a control group. The results indicated that, after applying the HRT 24 hour LID method, the ecotoxicity was considerably lowered and the batch type pilot plant was shown to be effective for toxicity reduction. The LID method is expected to be effective for water quality management, considering ecotoxicity by not only as a nonpoint source pollution abatement facility but also, as a subsequent treatment process linked with a livestock manure purification facility. It is necessary to take the LID technic optimization study further to apply it as a subsequent process for livestock wastewater treatment.

The interest in LID facilities is increasing worldwide for recovery of natural water cycle system to destroy by urbanization. However, problems are raised when installation of LID because comprehensive analysis about design capacity adequacy of LID facilities was not conducted completely. In this research, removal efficiency and design volume adequacy of LID facilities were analyzed based on rainfall monitoring data in four LID facilities(Vegetated Swale, Vegetative Filter Strip, Bio-Retention and Permeable Pavement). As a result, group of LID facility designed on WQV was shown higher flow(37%) and pollutants(TSS, BOD, TN and TP) removal efficiencies(20 ~ 37%) than group of LID facility designed on WQF. SA/CA graph was drawn for evaluation of design volume adequacy based on rainfall monitoring data. In this SA/CA graph, coefficient of determination show over 0.5 in all parameter, especially, Flow and TP were show over 0.95. And, 'SA/CA & L/CA' graph considering difference of structure mechanism in LID facility suggested in this research was confirmed that improved coefficient of determination in flow, TSS and TP than SA/CA graph. According to this research results, feasibility of applying 'SA/CA & L/CA' graph for evaluation of design volume adequacy in LID facility, and it is necessary to follow up research for generalization and normalization.
