TThe CCS, gathering attention as a practical measure against climate change, has various potential risks within itself. Identifying those risks and developing proper countermeasures for each one, therefore, is essential. Failure to take proper measures against such risks may result in significant damages and accidents, causing social anxiety and unwillingness to accept CCS. This study proposes the precautionary principle as a fundamental principle for CCS risk management. While the justifications for the precautionary principle are acceptable, there have been criticisms on its limitations including its impracticality. The purpose of this study was, therefore, to identify detailed application strategies to overcome those limitations. The risk factors related to CCS consist of quantifiable risk domains as well as a number of those with high uncertainty and ambiguity. Thus, there is a need to develop differentiated coping measures, meaning that the precautionary principle should be applied. The risk assessment and management applying the precautionary principle has implication of social appraisal based on wide participation and communication among the interested parties, which may be a useful approach for expanding social applicability.

사전예방 및 오염자 부담원칙을 정립하여야 한다. 환경파괴는 쉽지만 복구는 정말 어려우므로 사회문화생활과 경제활동 등 모든 분야에서 환경안전이 최대한 고려되어야 한다. 이를 위하여 환경위해요소에 대한 빈틈없는 사전예방체제를 확립하는 것이 필수적이다. 그리고 사전예방의 실효성을 높이기 위해서 원인자가 오염제거와 복구의 비용을 부담하는 원칙을 철저히 지켜나가야 한다.

Nanomaterials, which have the issues related to toxicity, environmental exposures, and human health, have been focused on significance of their safety management. Regarding their higher applicability for multiple sectors from chemicals to consumer products, the most important thing is to consider international policy cases categorized by regulatory intensities, applicable sectors, and substance types for establishing of convincing safety management system on nanomaterials. For minimizing the nanomaterials' risk potential, developing the system that underlines a precautionary principle is also needed. Regulatory system on nanomaterials should be applicable to the status quo and be a proactive approach to rapidly changing international trends.

Industrial insect is defined as the insect utilized in industries that creates added value. Most of the industrial insects used in Korea are exotic species that are introduced through artificial means. Despite the rapid expansion of market for industrial insects, the system for risk assessment of industrial insects is not being adequately conducted. Although Korea carries out a risk assessment for the species designated as disease and insect pest by Animal and Plant Quarantine Agency, far too little consideration is being given to overall ecosystem, as the control system is covered in the Plant Quarantine Law. To solve this problem, we analyzed the Korean risk assessment system and looked at systems in other countries. The results show that it is essential for stakeholders to reach an agreement to set up fundamental directions for the system. Unless the integration system of taxonomical and ecological information is prepared, the ecological risk assessment should be conservative to protect ecosystems and should also follow the precautionary principle. It also requires cooperation among the ministries. In addition, the results indicated that a differentiation between risk assessment and screening is urgent. Several solutions such as setting up clear objectives in both assessment and screening stages, target species, steering organization and assessment criteria assessment systems from were proposed as practical institutional strategies. Among many foreign countries the assessment system from Ireland equally considers various factors such as economical, ecological safety and management aspects, It is also based on precautionary principle to fulfil its original purpose. It was suggested that the Ireland system would be the best reference that can be modified and applied into the Korean system by considering distinct characteristics of the industrial insects.

It has been widely accepted that the environment is an important determining factor of human health. Appreciating the relationship between the environment and human health, Korean government has begun to deal with issues of environmental health. The government proclaimed the year of 2006 to be the first year of Environmental Health and established "The Environmental Health Plan for the next 10 Year". In order to achieve the goals in the plan, there are necessary considerations such as support systems for environment health related research, investigation, law, institution, administration, and so forth. This study suggests basic principles required to establish a legal regime of environmental health which is to implement the environmental health policies in Korea. Several cases of foreign legislation and policy relevant to environmental health are reviewed. Also, existing related legal system in Korea are analysed considering legal and institutional elements for establishing an effective environmental health policy. The main purpose of amending legal system related environmental health is to protect both public health and the soundness of ecosystem. To reach the goals effectively, the concept of 'environmental health' should be clearly established and presented. In addition, an advanced prevention system, including investigation and prevention of the cause of environmental diseases and risk assessment based on the precautionary principle, are substantial in the environmental health legislation. Also the environmental health law should guarantee public participation in decision making as well as the first consideration of susceptible or vulnerable population. This study concludes that the expected legislation related to environmental health should be a nonnative instrument not only for integrating each environmental protection scheme but also for establishing and implementing the policy.

Countries around the world have recognized the importance of personal information protection and have discussed protecting the rights of data subjects in various forms such as laws, regulations, and guidelines. PbD (Privacy by Design) is one of the concepts that are commonly emphasized as a precautionary measure for the protection of personal information, and it is starting to attract attention as an essential element for protecting the privacy of information subjects. However, the concept of PbD to prioritize individual privacy in system development or service operation in advance is still only at the declarative level, so there is relatively little discussion on specific methods to implement it. Therefore, this study discusses which principles and rights should be prioritized to implement PbD based on the basic principles of GDPR and the rights of data subjects. This study is meaningful in that it suggests a plan for the practical implementation of PbD by presenting the privacy considerations that should be prioritized when developing systems or services in the domestic environment.

This study proposed a forest landscape (patch) fragmentation monitoring framework using a cadastral forest land dataset and validated the feasibility of such monitoring. The following results were found. First, the forest landscape has fragmented too quickly. Hence, immediate national monitoring and management are required. Second, forest landscape monitoring should be linked to other survey frameworks. Horizontal fragmentation monitoring based on the forest landscape (geographic information system [GIS] polygons) is insufficient to determine ecological processes. Third, precautionary principle regulation to link forest landscape fragmentation monitoring to assessment systems such as environmental impact analysis or disaster impact analysis should follow.

건축물 가스배관이 외벽이 아닌 벽체에 매립됨으로써 건축물 외관의 새 지평을 열게 됐다. 산업통상자원부는 도시가스 사용에 따른 국민생활과 기업 활동에 불편을 주는 애로점을 해소하기 위해 건축물 도시가스배관 매립 등의 내용을 포함한 도시가스사업법 시행규칙을 지난 7월 25일 개정 공포하고 시행에 들어갔다. 이로써 7월 25일 이후 공사 입찰 공고분부터 가스배관의 벽체 매립이 적용된다. 그동안 도시가스배관은 외부에 노출되는 것이 원칙이었으나 이번 도시가스사업법 시행규칙 개정으로 벽에 매립 설치됨으로써 도시가스배관을 이용한 범죄예방효과에 크게 기여할 뿐만 아니라 건축물 미관도 개선될 것으로 보인다. 한편 가스계량기의 설치는 계량검침 및 유지보수가 용이하도록 외부 설치가 유도됨에 따라 사생활 침해와 검침원 사칭 피해를 사전에 예방할 수 있도록 하였고, 가스콘센트를 설치토록 하여 주민불편과 비용부담이 해소될 수 있도록 하였다. 이번 도시가스사업법 시행규칙 개정은 그동안 대한설비건설협회 가스설비공사협의회(위원장 조종택)가 지속적으로 건의하여 받아들여진 것으로, 가스설비공사협의회는 건축물 내 가스배관 설치기준 연구의 정책 기술 자문위원으로 적극 참여한 바 있다.
