Unusual precipitation caused by typhoons and severe rain stormscan threaten human life and property. Thus, various organizations prepare emergency action plans (EAPs) to provide proper guidelines for operators, experts, and emergency response personnel to protect and enhance critical infrastructure. For example, FEMA and DHS have various types of EAPs for dams, levees, and other structures to protect people and property. FEMA defines EAPs as official documents to decrease the damage and impact in emergency situations and to reduce casualties. These documents should consider all possible situations in an emergency and can reduce problems in facility management. This study analyzes EAPs for infrastructure from the USA, Japan, and Korea in order to suggest an ideal EAP framework. EAPcontent can include how to guide experts and operators in disaster stages (mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery), how to operate emergency equipment, and how to protect critical infrastructure and life. The suggested EAP framework performed very well in a test location. It can therefore be used for infrastructure organizations in Korea and to inform of the appropriate processes and methods for risk reduction in flood disasters.

This article investigates 170 mental health social workers in order to find out the current status and influencing factors on linking services. The social workers of this study work at different kinds of mental health organizations(mental hospitals, mental health centers, mental rehabilitation facilities, mental residential facilities). The result from the research were 1) the degree of linking services is low, and the primary type of coordination is sharing of information and client referrals. The fund-raising and joint project cases are very poor. 2) based on personal and organizational characteristics, there arc significant differences between respondents' sex, education level, job-related status, experience in mental health field, mental health licence(personal factors), location, type of organization, and type of primary client(organizational factors). 3) the factors affecting service coordination among mental health social workers are experience in mental health field, current job-related experience(personal factors), education, location of organization, type of organization, and history of organization(organizational factors). Finally, the research recommends that establishment of cooperation system, service delivery system, and information network is needed in order to enhancing the function of service coordination among mental health social workers. Also, mental health professional associations and agencies should provide opportunity of discussion and training for mental health social workers, and develop the institutional devices to expand the content and type of service coordination.

수문조사기기의 검정은 수문조사에 활용할 기기를 일관되고 표준화된 기준으로 검사하여 수문조사에 적합한 기기인지 확인하는 것이다. 이러한 검정은 국가수문자료의 신뢰도를 높이고 유지하는 기본적이고 중요한 업무이다. 검정대상기기는 강수량측정기기, 유속측정기기, 수위측정기기, 부유사측정기기, 토양수분측정기기, 증발산량측정기기로 총 6가지이며, 2009년부터 국토교통부 위탁사업으로 한국건설기술연구원(유량조사사업단)에서 수행하고 있다. 특히 유량조사사업단에서는 유속측정기기를 제외한 나머지 5개 수문조사기기에 대해 검정을 수행하고 있다. 연도별로 2009년부터 2015년까지 98대, 334대, 572대, 539대, 359대, 682대, 690대로 총 3,274대를 검정하였고, 관측기종별로 강수량 1,579대, 수위 1,589대 부유사 23대, 토양수분 33대, 증발산량 50대이다. 신청기관별로는 국토교통부(홍수통제소) 1,847대, 환경부(국립환경과학원) 4대, 한국건설기술연구원(유량조사사업단 포함) 81대, K-water 338대, 한국수력원자력(주) 91대, 일반업체 913대에 대한 검정을 실시하였다. 검정을 실시한 강수량측정기기 1,579대 중 보정없이 합격된 기기는 1,495대, 허용오차기준에 미달되어 보정 실시 후 합격한 기기는 76대이며, 불합격 처리된 기기는 8대이다. 수위측정기기는 합격이 1,586대, 기준에 미달되어 불합격된 기기가 2대로 나타났다. 강수량측정기기의 각 연도대비 통계분석 결과 보정률은 2009년 97대 중 8대(8.2%), 2010년 194대 중 3대(1.5%), 2011년 180대 중 24대(13.3%), 2012년 175대 중 17대(9.7%), 2013년 165대 중 15대(9.1%), 2014년 547대 중 8대(1.5%), 2015년 221대 중 9대(4.1%)로 다소 낮은 수치로 나타났다. 이처럼 보정률이 낮게 나타난 이유는 관할기관의 검정을 위한 유지관리 및 사업자의 사전검사 등을 통해 감소한 것으로 판단되며, 이와 같은 결과는 수문자료의 품질 및 신뢰도 향상으로 이어졌다. 그러나 여전히 선진국에 비해 수문조사기기 검정의 중요성에 대한 인프라 구축이 미흡한 실정이다. 수문조사기기 검정의 선진국이라 할 수 있는 미국의 경우 USGS에서 HIF(Hydrogical Istrumentation Facility)라는 별도 조직을 운영하여 관측기기의 렌탈, 수리, 교정 및 검정, 개발, 교육 등 이러한 작업을 일괄 수행하고 있고 조직 내 자체 시설로 수중펌프 시험소, 자연과 유사한 환경에서 테스트 하는 장소, 대형온도챔버 등을 갖추고 있으며, 이러한 시설을 이용하여 기기의 교정 및 검정, 연구 등을 현장과 비슷한 환경에서 다양한 실험을 통해 검정방법을 비교, 분석하는 것을 볼 수 있다. 현재 우리나라의 수문조사기기는 다양한 방법으로 현장에 설치되어 검정방법의 다양성이 요구된다. 향후 우리나라도 HIF와 같이 다양하고 선진화된 시설과 기술을 개선하고 다각적인 시험 과정을 통해 수준 높은 검정방법체계를 갖추려는 노력이 필요하다.

Seafaring is an important occupation that requires stringent hand hygiene practices as a basic method for preventing food-borne illness and infectious diseases when the diseases occur on board. The purpose of this study is to provide fundamental data for the prevention of food-borne illness and infectious disease on the ship by investigating the level of hand hygiene practices and influencing factors. A total of 222 seafarers were surveyed at a seafarers' educational institution between July and August 2017. Their hand hygiene practice were examined by a modified method using the guidelines which are recommended by the World Health Organization, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and Hand Hygiene Australia. The mean of hand hygiene practice was 47.97 out of 75 points. By category, the most frequent hand hygiene practice was measured as 4.04 on a 5-point scale as 'after working'. Factors affecting hand hygiene practices were ship tonnage relating to in job characteristics, exercise in health-related characteristics, and soap in relation to the characteristics of the hand hygiene environment on board. To improve hand hygiene among seafarers, it is necessary to raise awareness of hand hygiene among seafarers who work on small ships in particular, and to improve the systems of hand hygiene on ships with continuous education, hygiene practice evaluation and feedback.

This study was carried out to understand China's earthquake governance and role-sharing, and to strategically use it for research cooperation in related fields with China. The characteristics of China's national earthquake governance and role-sharing are detailed in this study. First, unlike Korea, China's geoscience and earthquake research fields are separate, and are clearly distinguished from other fields of science and technology. They hold a higher status compared to other fields in China. Second, China's provincial earthquake agencies simultaneously carry out related tasks under the dual supervisory management system of the central and provincial governments. Third, the China Earthquake Administration (CEA) has the authority to do research and development, manpower training, and degree conferment, which are centered on directly affiliated institutions. Fourth, China carries out similar functions in directly affiliated institutions of the CEA and the China Geological Survey (CGS), and affiliated institutions of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), respectively. Fifth, the CEA is continuously expanding the seismic observation network that connects the vast land of the country. Sixth, China is considered to have detailed structures of earthquake-related laws and regulations. Given China's earthquake governance and role-sharing, it is considered that the possibility of success in research cooperation is high if Korea first determines whether it is under the jurisdiction of the CGS, CEA, and CAS, depending on the specific field.

Reasons for disqualification to restrict a medical person's license should be considered in functional and moral terms. In this sense, the grounds for disqualification of medical personnel should be expanded to include all crimes that have been declared to be "imprisonment without labor or greater punishment" by a court. Because a sentence of "imprisonment without labor or greater punishment" means that it is highly reprehensible and undermines the trust of the state as well as the trust in medical personnel. Therefore, the expansion of the scope of license restrictions for medical personnel cannot be regarded as a violation of "the Less Restrictive Alternative" rule. However, it is necessary to reflect the specificity of medical services in the license restrictions of medical personnel. This is because not all diseases can be treated with current medical services. In addition, unpredictable situations can occur at any time during medical practice. Consequently, the negligence that occurs during medical practice should be carefully examined from a functional perspective of the medical personnel. And it should be treated differently from ordinary crimes. To this end, an independent license review organization should be established to establish expertise in license management.

The Literature Museum Network aims to realize the legislative purpose of the Literature Promotion Act and achieve balanced development of local literature centers across the country. In the Literature Museum Network, the literature museum network support center will be established by region to take charge of cooperation projects between local literature centers, which will be the culmination of the National Literature Museum of Korea. It is intended to test-run various projects planned by the Munhakwan Network Support Center to create derivative contents, or to establish a regional hub literature center in charge of education and other affairs of the literature museum's workforce. If the existing metropolitan administrative districts are used to form zones, the entire country can be organized into four zones. They include the Seoul-Gyeonggi Literature Museum Network (23 local literature centers), the Gangwon Chungcheong Literature Museum Network (32 local literature centers), the Yeongnam Literature Museum Network (30 local literature centers), and the Honam Jeju Literature Museum Network (22 local literature centers). One literature museum network support center will be established for each region and one local literature center will be selected as the hub literature center. The Literature Hall Network Support Center is in charge of collecting and managing literary materials, developing contents and programs, promoting and foreign cooperation, etc. The hub literature museum will be in charge of pilot operation of content and programs, training and education of experts in the literature museum, and running joint storage facilities. This structural system and efficient operation of the literature museum network will ultimately provide an opportunity for the formation of cultural governance in which the power and public nature of the establishment of literary promotion infrastructure are secured.
