The purpose of this study is to provide relevant directions of media industry regulation and policy by analyzing the relationship between market concentration and performance in global pay TV markets. The market concentration has long been regulated in the media industry under the belief that it harms market efficiency and cultural diversity. As the global media market is undergoing significant chance accelerated by the advance of technology, it is necessary to examine the feasibility of this long myth. The data are collected from global 17 pay TV markets and analyzed to see whether the highly concentrated markets by a single player result in higher price and slower service penetration. The result indicates that the price is not escalated and the penetration is not limited even in the markets where a dominant player takes high market share. It implies that more diverse factors other than the market concentration affect the market performance and that maintaining strict regulation of the market concentration is likely to have negative effect on technology innovation.

Basel III (Third Basel Accord or Basel Standards) is a global, voluntary regulatory framework on bank capital adequacy, stress testing, and market liquidity risk. Basel III regulatory ratios include capital adequacy, asset soundness, and liquidity. The capital adequacy variables include BIS capital adequacy ratio, BIS tier 1 capital ratio, and tangible common equity ratio. The asset soundness variables include non-performing loan ratio and non-performing loan coverage ratio. The liquidity regulation variables include KRW liquidity coverage ratio and foreign currency liquidity coverage ratio. This study aims to investigate how capital adequacy standard affects efficiency of internet primary banks. As a result of this study, BIS capital adequacy ratio of domestic internet primary banks is lower than that of commercial banks. In order to maintain sustainable operation considering capital adequacy regulations, it is necessary to expand additional capital. In addition, the delinquency rate and non-performing loan ratio of domestic internet primary banks is gradually increasing due to the maturity of high-yield loans in 2019.

Korea has passed the Act on the Integrated Control of Pollutant-Discharging Facilities in 2015, and the integrated environmental management under the BAT standard is underway. To summarize the nature of integrated environmental management, it is the regulation by the integration of the management of the multi-pollutant source and the technical standard of BATs. In general, in environmental economics, regulation-based on technical standards are known to be inefficient. This paper attempts to evaluate the efficiency of BAT standards from an economic point of view. A simple multi-pollutant model demonstrates that the inefficiency of the environmental tax with imperfect information in a single pollutant situation is amplified under multi-pollutant conditions. The simultaneous introduction of BAT and IPPC can be partially explained by this logic. It is also highlighted by the strengthening of BAT standards by EU, as a countermeasure to the potential deterioration of air quality caused by the change of effective environmental taxes accompanying the fuel and emission price changes.

Landfill is an widely applied alternative for clearance of non-contaminated waste or slightly contaminated waste generated from nuclear facilities. In this study, exposure dose is estimated for a worker and a resident at the landfill area in Young-gwang nuclear power plant. Based on evaluated dose, clearance concentrations of each radionuclide are determinated for dose criteria of 10 $\muSv/y$. The results of age-dependent dose are 1.02 $\muSv$ per year for resident and 0.471 $\muSv$ per year for worker. Clearance concentrations for each radionuclide are evaluated from $1.33{\times}10_{-1}$ Bq per gram to $2.85{\times}10^2$ Bq per gram.

There have been a number of legal & policy studies on the affecting factors of big data utilization, but empirical research on the composition factors of personal information regulation or data combination, which acts as a constraint, has been hardly done due to the lack of relevant statistics. Therefore, this study empirically explores the priority of personal information regulation factors and data combination factors that influence big data utilization through Delphi Analysis. As a result of Delphi analysis, personal information regulation factors include in order of the introduction of pseudonymous information, evidence clarity of personal information de-identification, clarity of data combination regulation, clarity of personal information definition, ease of personal information consent, integration of personal information supervisory authority, consistency among personal information protection acts, adequacy punishment intensity in case of violation of law, and proper penalty level when comparing EU GDPR. Next, data combination factors were examined in order of de-identification of data combination, standardization of combined data, responsibility of data combination, type of data combination institute, data combination experience, and technical value of data combination. These findings provide implications for which policy tasks should be prioritized when designing personal information regulations and data combination policies to utilize big data.

In this study, we investigated the main characteristics of off-gas generated from melting process and off-gas treatment system operation example to provide some primary data for commercial vitrification facility design. The purpose of vitrification facility operation is to treat hazardous materials in the radioactive wastes and harmful off-gas containing a variety of chemical species generated in the glass melting process. Constructing and operating vitrification facility essentially need to be licensed through safety analysis; it is very important to treat radionuclide and hazardous materials below the legal environment emissions regulation level. We must accurately understand the characteristics of off-gas and apply an appropriate off-gas treatment process accordingly. Thus, to design the appropriate off-gas treatment there must be a wide range of elements taken into account such as characteristics of waste and melter, regulation guidance of off-gas, characteristics of generated off-gas and off-gas treatment system performance assessment.

경제성장과 더불어 발생되는 환경오염물질 배출의 증가로 인해 이를 규제하려는 세계적인 동향이 강화되어 이러한 환경문제를 경제 내적인 문제로 발전하고 있다. 특히 전력부문에 있어서 여러 가지 투자대안들이 환경에 미치는 영향을 고려할 경우, 각 대안들이 전력을 생산하기 위해 필요한 비용은 사회적 비용을 고려치 않는 사적인 비용과 커다란 차이가 생길 수 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 균등화발전 원가법으로 유연탄과 LNG화력 발전의 경제성을 분석하였는데. 환경 규제상황에서 발전원간 평가를 위해 저감설비 도입비용, 탄소세, 연료비 인상, 할인율 변동에 따른 경제성 비교를 통하여 유연탄 및 LNG발전의 발전원가를 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션에 의한 민감도 분석을 통해 비교하였다.

산업발달에 따라 불가피하게 생성되며, 대기오염의 주종을 이루면서 인체에 가장 유해한 분진입자는 산업체의 오일(oil) 및 석탄연소 보일러, 자동차, 제철/제강 및 시멘트 플랜트 등으로 부터 배출되는 미세입자(fine particle)들이며, 앞으로 이들의 제어에 관한 연구가 지속적인 관심의 대상이 될 것이다. 한 예로, 석탄연소 화력발전소로부터 1$\mum$ 이하의 입자들의 배출량은 무게비로는 1% 이하이지만 입자수의 비율에서는99%를 차지하고 있다. 이들은 매우 높은 중금속 함유량을 지니고 있기 때문에 인체의 호흡시 심각한 문제를 유발시킬 뿐만 아니라, 이러한 미세입자들은 대기중에 부유하고 있다가 비(rain)에 의하여 세정되어 수질오염까지도 유발시킨다. 1992년 2월 공포된 대기환경보전법 시행규칙에 따라 분진배출 허용기준이 장기 입법예고 되므로서 1995년 1월과 1999년 1월의 2단계에 걸쳐 현재 적용 받고 있는 분진배출 규제치보다 훨씬 낮은 선진국 수준의 분진배출 규제가 요구되고 있으며, 분진이 배출되는 인근지역주민의 민원에 대처하기 위해서는 연돌로부터 분진배출이 눈에 감지되지 않을 정도까지 분진배출농도를 관리해야할 필요성이 높아지고 있다. 이에 따라 집진장치의 효율도 중유전소 Boiler 의 경우는 90% 이상, 석탄전소 Boiler의 경우는 99.5% 이상의 고효율이 요구되고 있다.

At present, Ganghwa County and Ongjin County of Incheon Metropolitan City are under the application of a different land use regulation like military regulations, etc. due to distinct characteristics of a border area; moreover, these two Counties have degenerated into the deepening area of economic backwardness and decline with the overlapping application of various land use regulations on the ground that these areas belong to a metropolitan area in view of an administrative district. In addition, different support is also implemented for border areas, such as 'the Special Act on Border Area Support' for the border areas, and development projects for special situation areas, etc.; however, realities are that the border areas are not free from regulations as yet due to the problems of unreality of support projects, and hierarchy of ordinances, etc. Accordingly, this study implemented this research under the judgment that it's about time to mitigate overlapping regulations on regional characteristics of the border areas of Incheon Metropolitan City, i.e. different land use regulation as a border area. It is required that general land use regulations should be mitigated through f lexible deregulation & management of the military regulation on the border areas of Incheon-si, mitigation of regulations under the Metropolitan Area Readjustment Planning Act, and relaxation of the preservation area of cultural properties; particularly, it's necessary to minimize the damage to border areas of Incheon-si caused by overlapping regulations on the areas by exempting the areas from the range of a metropolitan area through acknowledgment of the difference between the distinct characteristics of the border areas and regional, cultural conditions of a metropolitan area.
