Bucheon city has been rapidly urbanized and steadily enlarged. Also, the city depends on groundwater as an alternative water resource. The objective of this study is to characterize the hydrogeology in this city including the recharge of groundwater and hydraulic property of an aquifer in order to investigate the chemical characteristics and contamination of groundwater in the Bucheon area. Eleven groundwater wells in the Bucheon area were selected for applying certain hydraulic tests, such as pumping and recovery tests. Theis method and Theis recovery method were used to obtain hydraulic parameters, such as hydraulic conductivity, transmissivity by applying recovery tests. The playground of school and uncovered areas layed a major function of recharging areas. The groundwater well in these areas showed high recharge, transmissivity, and hydraulic conductivity. In a downtown area, groundwaier wells showed low pumping capacity and hydraulic parameters. Groundwater samples were collected from 48 different locations in the Bucheon area and that showed very various chemical composition in groundwater Their electrical conductivity showed various ranges from 70.4 to $1,287{\mu}S/cm$. The composition more significantly affected the groundwater due to the land use and urbanization than that of the aquifer rock type.

배수공법으로 터널을 설계할 때 다양한 지질조건에 따라 터널내로 유입되는 지하수 용수량과 배수관의 배수능력을 비교 검토하였다. 기존 설계 기준에 의한 터널 배수관은 다양한 지질조건을 가지는 대수층의 수리전도도에 따라 안정성 여부가 달라지는 것을 알 수 있었다. 기존 배수관 (${\Phi}300m/m$)으로 터널을 설계할 경우 투수성이 좋은 석회암 구간 및 파쇄대 구간에서는 문제가 생길 가능성이 높고, 풍화 받지 않은 암반층의 경우에는 터널길이 20km까지 지하수 용수량을 수용 가능한 것으로 판단된다.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the stream depletion from groundwater pumping in deep aquifer using the Ward and Lough's analytical solution (2011) which considers a two-layer leaky aquifer system. The calculated results for each pumping from the 110 wells beside streams showed a wide range of non-dimensional stream depletion, that is the streamflow depletion rate divided by the groundwater pumping rate, from lower than 0.1 to more than 0.9 on average for 5 years depending on the specific properties of well location. From the comparison with Hunt's solution (1999) of a single layer aquifer, the Ward and Lough's solution showed about 50% lower than the Hunt's solution due to the difference of hydraulic properties between the first and second layers as well as the lagged effect of vertical leakance. It was also found that the groundwater pumping has a minor effect on the stream depletion if the stream depletion factor (SDF) of the 1st layer is higher than about 1,000 or the SDF of the 2nd layer is higher than about 100, or the vertical leakance is smaller than $10^{-5}s^{-1}$. Furthermore, in the present study, the variations of the stream depletion were assessed according to the magnitude of unmeasured hydraulic properties such as transmissivity and storage coefficient of the 1st layer, vertical hydraulic conductivity of the 2nd layer, the streambed hydraulic conductance.

The present study may be summarized as follows. By means of a pole-pole electrical survey, major geological features, i.e, fresh rocks, fractured & weak & saturated rocks, fresh water bearing aquifer, were successfully delineated in the surveyed area of a granite region in Korea. The subsequent Schlumberger sounding and drilling confirmed the existence of the acquifer at 60 m depth as expected. But one more minor acquifer which does not show up in the resistivity depth section was met at 100 m depth. A simple forward modelling leads the authors to believe that any other electrode configuration, e.g., Wenner, Schlumberger, dipole-dipole, pole-dipole, would not detect the deeper aquifer. Under these circumstances, further studies remain to be done in connection with the spatial resolution in the vertical direction.

The vertical distribution of hydraulic conductivity of 3 boreholes located at Kongju National University was estimated by the ambient flow and the pump-induced flow measurements using a heat-pulse flowmeter. The ambient flow measurements showed that a great amount of groundwater (1~2 m$^3$/day) flowed in the boreholes through the conductive fractures. The analyzed conductivity profiles we similar to those of the packer test performed for the same boreholes. The conductive fractures in which the differential net flow changed greatly could be identified by the BIPS logging. The water-quality logging data showed that quality of groundwater changed abruptly at some depths of the boreholes. This change in water quality can be attributed to the presence of conductive fractures that have resulted in the mixing of groundwater of different quality flowing in different fracture channels. However, compared to the flowmeter test, the water-quality logging showed low capability in identifying locations of conductive fractures.

폐기물매립장에서 발생하는 침출수의 확산정도를 정량적으로 추정하기 위해 매립장 주변에 설치되어 있는 2개 지하수공(BWM-1, BWM-2)에서 단공주입양수 추적자시험이 실시되었다. 브롬(Br-) 이온이 추적자로 이용되었으며, 추적자시험은 주입단계, 체이서단계 및 양수단계의 과정으로 실시되었다. 시험대상 구간은 지표면하 $20{\sim}24m$에 해당하는 파쇄암반층이며, 주입율과 양수율은 추적자시험 이전에 실시되어진 양수시험 자료에 의해 산정되었다. BWM-1 지하수공의 단공주입양수 추적자시험에 의해 추정된 종분산지수는 공극율이 0.01, 0.05, 0.1 및 0.5인 경우에 각각 9.50, 4.25, 3.00, 1.34cm 이다. 시험대수층의 공극율은 대략 $0.05{\sim}0.20$의 범위이며, 따라서 종분산지수는 $2{\sim}4cm$인 것으로 추정된다. BWM-2 지하수공의 단공주입양수 추적자시험에 의해 추정된 종분산지수는 공극율 0.01, 0.05, 0.1 및 0.5인 경우에 각각 3.32, 1.49, 1.05, 0.47cm 이다. 시험대수층의 공극율은 대략 $0.05{\sim}0.20$의 범위이며, 따라서 종분산지수는 $1{\sim}2cm$인 것으로 추정된다. 폐기물매립장에서 침출수가 유출할 경우, BWM-2 지하수공 주변의 파쇄암반층이 BWM-1 지하수공 주변의 파쇄암반층보다 침출수 확산이 2배 정도 빠르게 발생할 것으로 추정되었다.

We present the results of two-dimensional numerical simulations predicting the flow of groundwater in a fractured unsaturated zone. We applied the k-field distribution of permeability derived from discrete fracture network (DFN) modeling as the hydraulic properties of a model domain. To model an unsaturated zone, we set the depth from the ground surface to the underground aquifer. The rate of water infiltration into the unsaturated zone was divided into two parts, an artificial structure surface and unsaturated soil zone. The movement of groundwater through the unsaturated zone was simulated with particular emphasis on contaminant transport. It was clearly observed that the contaminants dissolved in groundwater transported vertically from the ground surface to the saturated zone.
