Rural watershed Water Quality and Environmental Improvement through Rearrangement of Irrigation Water Supply Systems

농촌유역 환경개선을 위한 용수공급체계 재정비

The objective of the study is to assess the water quality improvement resulted from the rearrangement of the irrigation water supply systems at Mankyeong River and Ansung Chun basin. There is a mixed type of watershed composed of urban and rural areas in the region. From the water quality analysis, showed high T-N, T-P concentration in Ansung chun and Mankyeong river caused by paddies separated widely around Ansung chun and Mankyeong river and by runoff of the pollution from the Ansung and Jeonju city. but the upstream of the river showed clean water quality, so if we use the upstream water as river maintenance water for water quality improvement, it is expected to be positive effect for rural environmental aspect.
