The freshwater lakes located at the fringe of urban cities are a habitat for diverse organisms. However, they are facing severe danger of environment deterioration and water pollution caused by reckless development of the area. In this study, an ecological management plan was suggested to promote the biodiversity through appointing management area based on the research and analysis data of flora and fauna as well as maintain biodiversity and harmonize utilization of freshwater lakes such as Duryang Reservoir at Sacheon, Gyeongsangnam-do. Base on the data of ecological research and analysis, this study conducted research on biotope assessment, wild life habitat assessment and presence of protected species. As a result, the ecosystem conservation area including multi-layer structured natural forests, waterside and wetland that are home to various species and the edge area with high habitat diversity were recognized as highly preservable regions. Management areas were ecologically disturbed region, highly polluted commercial district and damaged waterside caused by fishing. Proactive management must be implemented through vegetation management such as vegetation transition and shrub planting as well as establishing pollutant management system. The deterioration of waterside and forest vegetation of freshwater lake has a direct influence on biodiversity and water quality. Therefore, the conservation area and development area should be totally separated from each other, and the development area must be restored and managed strictly.

The study site was the camping area in the Hwarang Amusement Park in Danwon-gu, Ansan-si. Study activities were conducted three times a week from July 20, 2018, to August 1, 2018. A control site, natural enemy site, and Bti(Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis) site were selected. The analyses included habitat environment and species composition analyses, community analysis, correlation analysis, and similarity analysis. The water quality analysis found no significant difference in water quality over the study period (p>0.05). A total of 4,818 individuals, 38 species, 22 families, and 11 orders were observed during the study period. The natural enemy site observed during the study period had a similar species composition as the control site. The Bti site differed from other sites by the low number of species and individuals present. According to the community analysis, the natural enemy site was a stable community and the Bti site was an unstable community during the study period. Diptera showed negative associations with temperature and water temperature and mosquito larvae showed significant correlations with temperature and water temperature. The similarity analysis showed that the control site and the natural enemy site were 61.11-73.68% and the Bti site showed 30.77-56.00% similarity.
