The Korea Coast Guard evaluates the risk of major coastal activity places to prevent coastal accidents, and patrols and manages them based on that, but it is not responding properly to the continuously increasing number of coastal accidents. The reason for this is that, despite the gradual expansion of coastal activity places, there is a lack of manpower to manage and supervise them, resulting in blind spots in coastal accident safety management. Therefore, in order to solve this problem, it is necessary to prepare more efficient and effective measures that check and supplement the current coastal safety management system. Coastal accidents show different characteristics of accident causes and places due to differences in the activity characteristics of users according to time. As a result of analyzing coastal accident data (2017~2021), the frequency of daytime accidents is high in the case of sea rock, beach, and offshore, where family leisure activities are frequent. In the case of wharf, tidal flat and bridge, where accidents due to drinking, disorientation, and suicide mainly occur, the frequency of accidents at night is high. In addition, there were more accidents on weekends when the number of users increased compared to weekdays. This trend indicates that the user's temporal activity characteristics must be reflected in the risk assessment of coastal activity places. Therefore, in this study, based on the case of coastal accidents, the characteristics of accidents at coastal activity places according to time were identified, and the criteria were presented for risk evaluation by grading them. It is expected that it will be possible to lay the foundation for reducing coastal accidents by efficiently managing and supervising coastal activity places over time using the presented evaluation criteria.

Coastal safety accidents are characterized by a high proportion of human negligence and repeated occurrences of accidents caused by the same factors. The Korea Coast Guard prepares and implements various countermeasures to prevent accidents at coastal safety accident sites. However, there is a shortage of safety facilities and safety management personnel according to the limited budget. In addition, the ability to be proactively and proactively respond is low due to the limitations of the coastal safety accident risk forecasting system, which relies on the meteorological warning of the Korea Meteorological Administration. In this study, as part of preparing the foundation for establishing a preemptive and active coastal safety management system that can manage accident-causing factors, predict and evaluate risk, and implement response and mitigation measures after an accident occurs before coastal safety accidents occur. The establishment of a risk assessment system was proposed. The main evaluation factors and indicators for risk assessment were established through the analysis of the status of coastal safety accidents. The risk assessment methodology was applied to 40 major hazardous areas designated and managed by the Korea Coast Guard.

Recent persistent coastal developments have expanded recreational areas and enhanced accessibility. However, this growth has also led to a rise in safety incidents. These accident factors can be divided into human-made and natural types. The latter is comprised of dynamic factors like waves, tides, sea fogs, and winds. While institutions like the Korea Meteorological Administration and the Korea Hydrographic and Oceanographic Agency already offer data on these dynamic factors, the resolution is often insufficient for a precise assessment of localized risks. In this study, to overcome these limitations, we utilized the dynamic information from existing open systems to construct a high-resolution numerical simulation. Through this, we developed an automated module to predict dynamic factors in localized coastal activity areas. Particularly during the module's construction, we compared and reviewed the numerical prediction results for waves with observed wave heights.

It is important to establish a strong system of agencies for protection against disasters. Also, the system of protection against disasters by the residents is necessary to be strengthen the system. We examined the roles of the protection agencies and the administrational institutions against disasters. The results are: 1) The mutual assistance agency relies on the administrational institution on a hardware surface., 2) On the software surface some systems of protection from disasters are under the control of the agencies, and some are under the control of the administrational institution., 3) The shelters are unable to meet the needs of people in any disaster. Thus, we should use of the existing institutions as evacuation areas., 4) The people working in the city in which they live tend to know the protocols of the disaster measures and to recognize the disaster maps well.

Rock platforms and TTP (breakwater) are dangerous environments commonly subject to tidal and high wave energy on the open coast. This paper is a study on risk assessment to provide risk information, which is a representative method for preventing coastal safety accidents. Risk assessment based on geo-morphological information was conducted for the Halmi-Halabi rock platform in Anmyeon-eup, Taean-gun, Chungcheongnam-do. As a result of the risk assessment in 16 directions, the risk was evaluated high in the NE, ENE, S, SSW, and W directions, where there are many sections with slopes exceeding ±20°, and the NW direction was the lowest. Geo-morphology on rock platform is central to understanding what makes one stretch of complex coastline more hazardous than another, and it can be used to create site-specific morphological risk item. In particular, it will be assisting coastal managers in an effort to reduce the number of injuries and drowning incidents by providing hazard information to assess the relative risk.

The increase in human use and activity in the oceans is leading to marine pollution and habitat destruction. As a result, in particular, marine animals with a long life cycle and small population are threatened with extinction. Thus, the Korean government designated 11 artificial habitats, such as aquariums and marine museums, as Ex-situ conservation institutions to preserve endangered marine life in 2010. However, studies on the significance and economic value of Ex-situ conservation institutions providing marine life conservation services have not been conducted. Thus, the purpose of this study was to estimate the public's quantitative support for the operation policy of Ex-situ conservation institutions, which is a management method for the protection and propagation of marine animals in Korea. To achieve this, the economic value of the marine animal conservation role of the National Maritime Museum was estimated, operated as an Ex-situ conservation institution for the preservation of green turtles in Korea. By using the representative non-market valuation method for public goods known as the contingent valuation method (CVM), the economic value of the Ex-situ conservation institution (National Maritime Museum) was estimated at approximately 41.8 billion won to a maximum of 78.1 billion won. The results of this study can be applied as basic data for marine animal management policymakers in establishing efficient management plans for endangered marine animals in Korea's coastal waters.

농촌 지역의 인구 감소 및 그에 따른 지자체의 위기의식이 심화됨에 따라 국내에서도 지역마다 각종 인구 늘리기 시책을 실행하고, 중앙에서 도시민 농촌유치 프로그램 지원 시범사업을 기획하는 등 지역 발전의 기본 요건이 되는 인구 감소의 해결을 위한 노력이 가시화되고 있다. 이에 따라 본 연구는 일본의 정주촉진 정책 사례에 대한 고찰을 통해 국내 정책에의 시사점을 도출하고자 한다. 시마네현은 일본 혼슈의 동해 연안에 위치하고 있으며, $6707.26km^2$의 면적에 약 74만 2천 명의 인구(2005)가 살고 있는 지역이다. 시마네현의 총 토지면적 중 약 80%가 산림면적이며, 경지면적은 41,000ha로 약 6%를 차지하고 있다. 이 중 논이 80%를 차지하여 논농사 중심의 농업이 이루어지고 있으며, 풍요로운 수산자원을 보유하고 있어 어업활동도 활발하다. 이러한 시마네현에서는 UI턴의 촉진을 위해 '산업체험사업'을 1996년부터 시행하고 있는데, 농림어업에 관한 산업체험을 실시하고, 체험 후의 거주지로 빈집을 활용하는 사업이다. 현 외 거주자가 시마네현 내에서 일정시기 산업체험을 하고자 할 경우, 월 50,000엔이 지급되며, 거주지 확보가 어려울 경우 트레일러하우스나 빈집활용주택, 공영주택 등을 임대해주고 있다. 또 시마네 현 내에서 30세 미만의 청년 미취업자가 일정기간 산업체험을 실시할 경우, 체험에 필요한 경비의 일부를 제공해주고 있다. 그간의 실적을 보면 연간 평균 105명이 체험에 참가하고 있으며, 2000년 이후 정착률은 50%를 넘고 있다. 총 259개의 체험 장소에서 월 평균 4명이 참가하고 있으며, 업종별 참가자수는 농업 및 기타(관광, 전통공예), 어업, 임업, 축산업의 순서로 많은 것으로 나타나고 있다. 또한 시마네현의 고츠시에서는 '도시와의 공생 교류' 실현을 위한 9가지 중점시책을 설정하고 그에 따른 사업을 실행하고 있다. 농산어촌의 취락을 유지하는 것이 첫 번째 중점시책으로서 이를 위해 빈집을 활용한 정주와 교류가 활발히 이루어질 수 있도록 주거 정보를 수집, 관리, 웹을 통해 제공하고 있으며, 농지 유동화 및 농림수산물의 직거래 시스템 확립에 주력하고 있다. 이 밖에도 UI턴자 확보를 위해 지역에서 살고, 일하고, 즐기는데 대한 일체적인 정보 제공 시스템을 마련하고 있으며, '고향교육'을 통해 지역에 대한 애착심을 기르는 동시에 지역에서의 취업 지향을 높이는데 힘쓰고 있다. 농촌 정주촉진을 위한 사업 내용면에서는 일본과 우리나라 간 큰 차이가 없다. 그러나 사업에의 의지와 방향 설정, 사업 추진체계 및 운영방식 등에서 발견되는 차이를 주시함으로써 농촌 지역 인구 증가에 보다 실질적으로 기여할 수 있는 정책으로 만들어가야 할 것이다.
