In this study, general characteristics of dynamic behavior of stormwater runoff from a small impervious catchment was investigated from a series of simulations for a radial type surface runoff. Based on the simulation results, a better placement strategy for stormwater inlets to improve performance of a structural best management practice (BMP) was suggested. The degree of pollutant first flush from an ideal radial type impervious catchment was simulated using a 1-D diffusion wave equation coupled with a pollutant transport equation. The results showed that the first flush of the chemical oxygen demand was the strongest when the catchment length ranged 30-50m at a bed slope of 0.02. This result suggested that a required degree of the first flush can be intentionally obtained by just changing the locations and numbers of stormwater inlets, and thereby adjusting the catchment length. Particularly, the overall performance of a structural BMP in reducing pollutant load can be improved by placing the stormwater inlets at locations for obtaining a required first flush strength.

Various development activities have lead to the destruction of the ecosystem such as natural wetlands. In order to protect these natural wetlands, the Ministry of Environment (MOE) in Korea enacted the Wetland Conservation Act in 1999 and designated protected areas for wetland conservation. The MOE adapted the use of Best Management Practices (BMP) such as retention ponds and constructed wetlands to treat the polluted water before entering the water system. One of these projects was a free-water surface flow (FWS) constructed wetland built as a secondary treatment unit for piggery wastewater effluent coming from a livestock wastewater treatment facility. Water quality monitoring for the constructed wetland was conducted during rainfall events. The results showed that the average removal efficiencies of TSS, BOD, TN, TP were 86, 60, 45, 70%, respectively. It was observed that the removal efficiency of particulate matter and phosphorus was high compared to nitrogen. Therefore, a longer hydraulic retention time was needed in order to improve the treatment efficiency of nitrogen. The results of this study can contribute to the wetland design, operation and maintenance of constructed wetlands.

Recently, various development projects have occurred due to rapid industrialization and urbanization. Both industry and population grew rapidly which causes a corresponding rise in pollution. The accumulated pollutants are washed-off during rainy days, highly degrading the water quality of the receiving water body. This is because a lot of non point source (NPS) pollutants were accumulated on the surface during dry periods. This research focuses on the development of Eco-Bio Filter (EBF) system that treats NPS pollutants. It is constructed at Kongju National University campus. The EBF is a type of a structured infiltration system that falls under the category of Low Impact Development (LID) hydrologic design practices. The monitoring of rain events was performed. It includes the development of design, the lessons learned from the post-construction testing and the improvements in the renovation made. After a series of monitoring, the MOE will use the results to apply the design to other areas in the country.

This study analyzes potentially hazardous sub-watersheds from non-point source pollution areas using an HSPF model. The watershed of the Juam dam reservoir was divided into 29 sub-watersheds, and the flow, BOD, TN and TP concentration for the Juam dam watershed were evaluated from 2009 to 2012 using a watershed model, with a warming period from 2009 to 2010. The results of the watershed model agreed well with the flow and water quality field measurements. The calculated average non-point source loadings were BOD of 8.8 and $9.1kg/day/km^2$ in 2011 and 2012, respectively; TN of 9.7 and $10.1kg/day/km^2$ in 2011 and 2012, respectively; and TP of 0.30 and $0.33kg/day/km^2$ in 2011 and 2012, respectively. The non-point source loading of the Bonghwa stream watershed was calculated, and predominantly assessed upstream of the Boseong river. Additionally, the Miryeok, Jangpyeong, Yuleo, Guam, Seokgyo, Mundeok, Incheon, and Bongnae stream watersheds, with extensive agricultural areas, were assessed to be potentially hazardous areas in terms of non-point source management. In this study, HSPF model was applied in order to aid in the selection of non-point source reduction facilities for the Juam dam watershed, where they were evaluated as to whether they would be applicable for non-point source management.

Researches about NPS(Non-point Pollution Source) reduction have been widely carried out in recent years. A pilot channel-type constructed wetland (wet swale) was constructed in Rongyin area to treat stormwater generated from a green house agro-land of 22.7 ha. From 2006 to 2008, monitoring was conducted to evaluate its performance on the removal effect for organic pollutants as well as nutrients. Totally, sampling trips of 17 rainfall events were made and they covered most types of storm events in Korea. The channel-type constructed wetland have average removal efficiencies of 78.3~92.0%, 56.4~66.1%, 28.2~45.5% and 50.6~66.4% for SS, COD, TN and TP, respectively. According to four methods for estimating the removal efficiency, the average efficiencies of TSS, COD, TN and TP are 86.0%, 60.1%, 30.1% and 53.5%, respectively. From 2006 to 2008, annual efficiency improved due to infiltration potential increase. It was found that most of the pollutants removed in this channel type of wetland was particulate solids bound pollutants, which is assumed fact that it lacks of physico-chemical treatment conditions which are commonly observed in the retention type of constructed wetlands.

The Because reduction facilities of existing non-point pollution source weren't balanced with each element technologies, most of case were what damaged scene nature of river, neutralized pollution sources and reduction effect. Therefore it's necessary to find a solution by integrating the operation system. Based on the comparative analysis that we have ran, we examined the capacity at individual operation's water purification and linked the treatment to detention pond, wetland and revetment.

주차장에서 발생하는 비점오염을 저감하기 위한 대책이 필요할 것으로 전망됨에 따라 최적관리기법(Best Management Practices, BMP) 또는 저영향개발(Low Impact Development, LID)과 같은 관리방안을 적용하여 강우에 의해 발생되는 강우유출수와 비점오염물질을 동시에 저감하는 연구가 수행되고 있다. 기존 연구사례들에서는 대상유역에서 발생된 강우유출수에 대한 모니터링을 수행을 통해 얻은 자료를 이용하여 비점오염물질 배출량을 산정하였지만, 이러한 방법은 다양한 강우사상에 따른 유출량을 직접 산정할 수 없으며, 미계측 유역에 활용하는데 있어서는 제약이 따르는 한계를 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 강우유출수 개선모형으로 국내 외에서 강우유출수의 모의와 저감시설의 성능평가에 많이 사용되고 있는 MUSIC(Model for Urban Stormwater Improvement Conceptualization) 모형과 SWMM(Storm Water Management Model) 모형을 이용하여 주차장 BMP 설치에 따른 저감효과를 산정하기 위해 주차장에 적합한 대상 BMP(식생수로, 통로화분, 투수성 포장)을 선정하고, 이를 강우유출수 개선모형의 BMP 모듈을 통해 모의하여 저감효과를 산정하는 방법론을 제시하고자 한다. BMP별 저감효과는 통로화분, 투수성 포장, 식생수로 순으로 나타났으며, 모형의 초기우수현상 재현성이 BMP설치에 따른 저감효과에 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 파악되었다.

강원도 홍천군 북방면 능평리에 위치한 규사광산을 2008년 3월부터 12월까지 발생한 강우사상에 대하여 모니터링을 실시하였다. 모니터링 지점은 채광작업과 가공작업이 이루어지는 계곡의 하류로 평시 $500m^2$/day의 유량이 흐르는 작은 소하천이다. 관측된 13회의 총 강우량은 712.6 mm가 발생하였다. 강우강도는 0.5 ${\sim}$ 4.7 mm/hr, 선행무강우일수는 1.2 ${\sim}$ 9.8일로 나타났다. 유출률은 28.0 $^{\sim}$ 98.0 %로 나타났으며, 유출율 98.0 %는 168.0 mm의 많은 양의 강우가 발생한 7월 24일부터 25일까지의 강우사상에서 발생하였다. 채석과 가공작업등의 영향으로 인하여 강우시 다른 오염 물질보다 SS 농도와 EMC가 매우 높고, 범위가 가장 큰 것으로 나타났다. 또한 SS는 강우량과 건기일수에 민감한 영향이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 규사광산지역은 다른 오염 물질보다 SS를 저감 시킬 수 있는 비점오염저감시설이 필요할 것으로 사료된다. 기상조건에 따른 오염부하와 EMC의 정확한 산정하기 위해서는 장기간의 모니터링을 통한 많은 자료의 수집이 동반되어야 할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서 조사된 자료와 분석된 결과는 토지이용별 비점오염부하의 산정과 저감기술의 개발에 활용할 수 있으며, 수질오염총량제의 신뢰성을 향상시킬 것으로 판단된다.

비점오염물의 제거를 위해 설치하는 인공습지의 경우, 습지내로 유입되는 취입량과 배수량은 습지내로 유입되는 유입수의 체류시간을 결정하고, 습지의 침수를 방지하기위해 반드시 고려되어야 하는 사안이다. 습지의 유출입시설을 관리하고 조작하는 관리자의 입장에서 관리메뉴얼이 명확하고 직관적이지 못할 경우 강우초기에 적절히 대응하지 못해 습지의 침수 및 범람을 일으킬 수 있으며, 초기 우수 시 오염부하를 저감해야 하는 인공습지 본래의 기능을 기대하기 어렵게 된다. 그러나 각종 설계기준과 관리기준에는 이러한 사안에 대해 서언적인 관리방안만을 제시하고 있고 인공습지 설계에서도 설계서에 보편적인 내용만을 관성적으로 사용하고 있어, 영주댐 인공습지 관리메뉴얼의 사례를 소개하고자 한다. 인공습지의 설계강우량을 통해 유역의 유출유량을 산출하고, 강우별 하천수위를 산출하여 습지내 유입유량과 취수문 개도높이별 유입량 결정을 하였다. 결정된 수위별 수문개도 높이를 세부적으로 제시함으로써, 관리자는 원거리에서도 수문조작을 판단하여 대응할 수 있는 실무적인 관리방안을 제시하고자 하였다.
