Abstract

In order to establish the watershed water quality management strategy of Total Maximum Daily Load(TMDL), it is necessary to understand the relationship between water quality component impacts, and to identify the impacts on downstream target point of watershed water quality management of waste treatment plant(WTP) discharge and upstream/tributary loads. In this study, we determined the impacts between the water quality contaminants, and traced water pollution sources using monitoring data of ministry of environment in tributaries and main stream and WTP monitoring data. Test area is set to Geumho river basin which has characteristics of urban and rural area and composes of GeumhoA, GeumhoB, GeumhoC watershed units in TMDL. The clustering with five grades of discharge data and the correlation analysis were performed through the FDC(Flow duration curve) analysis, which more clearly identified the points and water contaminants deteriorating target water quality of downstream point. This can be used as a tool for tracing pollutants with FDC analysis, and will help us establish the watershed water quality management strategy for TMDL target point in watershed more effectively.

수질오염총량관리제에서 유역 수질관리 전략을 수립하기 위해서는 수질 항목간 영향관계를 파악하는 것과 함께 유역내의 환경기초시설 방류와 상류 및 지류 하천 부하가 유역 하류에 위치한 목표수질 설정지점의 수질에 미치는 영향을 규명하는 것이 필요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 지류 및 본류 구간내의 환경부 수질측정자료와 환경기초시설 방류수 측정 자료를 이용하여 오염물질 간의 영향을 파악하고, 단위유역 말단의 수질에 미치는 오염원추적을 실시하였다. 대상유역은 도시지역과 비도시지역 특성을 모두 가지며, 수질오염총량제에서 금호A, 금호B, 금호C 유역으로 구성된 금호강유역으로 설정하였다. FDC(Flow duration curve) 분석을 통해 유량을 5개의 유황 등급별로 군집화 및 상관성분석이 수행되었고, 이를 통해 목표수질 설정지점의 수질을 악화시키는 원인이 되는 지점과 수질항목을 보다 명확하게 규명할 수 있었다. FDC 분석과의 연계를 통해 오염물질 추적의 도구로 사용될 수 있으며, 이를 통해 수질오염총량관리 목표수질 설정 지점에 대한 유역 수질관리 전략을 보다 효율적으로 수립할 수 있을 것이다.
