우리나라의 수질오염총량관리제도는 수계 내 모든 유역을 관리대상으로 동일 기준유량 조건에 동일한 대상물질로 관리하고 있지만, 본류는 지류의 영향을 받고 있으며 지류는 사람이 거주하는 지역 인근에 있어 본류 수질에 직접적인 영향을 미치고 있다. 이는 지류의 시급한 개선이 필요한 오염물질의 실질적인 관리가 어려워 이를 개선하기 위해 오염도가 높은 지류의 총량관리를 위한 지류총량제도의 추가 도입이 필요한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 지류총량제 시행에 따른 효과를 예측하기 위해 팔당수계 유역을 소유역 단위로 분할하고 HSPF 모형을 적용하여 팔당수계 소유역 지류에서의 수질 변화 양상이 본류에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 연구대상지역은 팔당수계 중권역 유역(남한강 하류 유역, 경안천 유역, 북한강 하류 유역)으로 구분하고 유역 유출 및 수질 모델링은 지류하천을 포함하는 57개 소유역을 대상으로 수행하였다. 입력자료는 공간자료(표고, 경사, 토지이용, 토양도 등)와 기상자료(춘천, 양평, 이천, 수원관측소)는 2008년~2018년의 강수량, 최고기온, 최저기온, 평균풍속, 평균습도 등의 시단위 자료를 사용하였다. 모의결과, BOD는 남한강 하류유역의 주요 지천 유역인 복하천, 양화천, 청미천 및 흑천 유역에서 0.54~0.56mg/L의 범위로 주변 유역보다 높게 나타났으며, 경안천 유역은 경안천 유역의 중·하류 유역에서 2.63~4.22mg/L의 범위로 높게 나타났고, 북한강 유역은 조종천 하류 및 북한강 상류 유역에서 1.36~3.31mg/L의 범위로 주변 유역보다 높게 나타났다. T-P는 남한강 하류 유역은 주요 지천 유역인 복하천, 양화천, 청미천 유역에서 0.07~0.19mg/L의 범위로 주변 유역보다 높게 나타났고, 남한강 하류 유역의 중간 지점 유역인 한강(E1, E2, E4, E6)에서 높게 나타났다. 경안천 유역은 중·하류 유역의 좌안측 유역인 경안(A4, A3, B2, B1, F9)에서 0.1~0.14mg/L의 범위로 높게 나타났으며, 북한강 유역은 전체 유역에서 0.06mg/L 이하로 남한강 하류 및 경안천 유역보다 전반적으로 낮게 나타났다. 이와 같이 지류총량관리에 HSPF 모형의 적용은 가능하였으나 HSPF 모형을 이용한 소유역 단위의 유량 및 수질 예측을 위해서는 기존의 유량 및 수질 관측망을 소유역 단위로 좀 더 정밀하게 계획하는 것이 필요하다고 판단된다.

수질오염총량관리제는 설정된 목표수질 이내로 유역 내 오염물질의 총배출량을 관리하기 위해 도입되었다. 그 동안 4대강 수계를 대상으로 수질오염총량관리제를 시행해오면서 여러 문제점들이 발생하였다. 이러한 문제점들을 개선하기 위한 제도적으로 보완이 이루어져 왔으나, 중앙정부와 지방정부간에 역할이 명확히 정립되지 않았다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 수질오염총량관리제의 효율적인 시행을 위해 중앙정부와 지방정부간 역할 정립방안을 제안하고자 한다. 중앙정부는 국가하천 주요지점에 대상오염물질 및 농도를 설정하고, 지방정부는 해당유역에 대상오염물질의 목표수질을 설정하여야만 한다. 또한, 지방정부는 유역의 수질개선정도를 파악하기 위해 지류하천을 중심으로 수질 및 유량모니터링을 지속적으로 수행하여야 한다. 지방정부는 중앙정부(유역환경청)에서 수립한 기본계획에 따라 설정된 목표수질을 초과하는 유역의 시행계획을 수립하여야 한다. 수질오염총량관리 이행평가는 기초자치단체에서 매년 지류하천의 수질 및 유량모니터링을 통해 목표수질 만족여부만 평가하고, 이행평가보고서는 계획기간의 최종년도에 목표수질 초과유역에 대한 원인분석을 포함하는 이행평가보고서를 유역환경청에 제출하도록 해야 한다.

It is difficult to manage hotspot area and to establish the reduction plan considering with spatial-distribution on Korea TMDLs (Total Maximun Daily Loads) system. To solve this problems, methods of Load Duration Curve (LDC) using long-term flow and water quality data, and spatial-analysis were applied on present TMDLs. Jinwi A watershed which is enforced TMDLs plan were selected to study area. Results of application of suggested methods in this study to Jinwi watershed, Hwangguji tributary was selected to hotspot area and Jinwi tributary was exclued. Also, middle area of Hwangguji tributary was needed a reduction plan for the protection of non-point source pollution. In downstream area, livestock manure should be managed additionally. The new methods suggested in this study were useful to increase healthiness for total watershed.

The policy of total maximum daily load (TMDL) was adopted to manage water pollutants so as to keep the total amount of pollutants in the watersheds within established target water quality. While the TMDL was implemented in all four major river basins, various problems occurred. Even though the corrections for problems were conducted, the role between central and local government was not established exactly. This study was presented to suggest a role between central and local governments for effective implementation of TMDL. When the central government establishes the environmental criteria with water quality standards and pollutants in the main rivers, the local government should establish the level of target pollutants in the watershed. Also, the local government should be continuously implementing the water quality and flowrate monitoring of the tributaries to find out the degree of water quality improvement in the tributaries. Especially, the basic plan of TMDL for the whole watershed should be established by the river basin environmental office at the central government. The local government should be established the implementation plan of TMDL for the watershed where exceeds the established target water quality. The performance assessment of TMDL should be implemented every year to the water quality and flowrate monitoring of the tributaries for satisfaction assessment of target water quality in the watershed by the lower-lever government. The performance assessment report of TMDL included with an analysis of causes for the excess water quality in the watershed should be submitted to the river basin environmental office at the end of the TMDL planning period.

The total maximum daily load (TMDL) implemented in Korea mainly manages the mainstream considering a single common pollutant and river discharge, and the river system is divided into unit watersheds. Changes in the water quality of managed rivers owing to the water quality management in tributaries and unit watersheds are not considered when implementing the TMDL. In addition, it is difficult to consider the difference in the load of pollutants generated in the tributary depending on the conditions of the water quality change in each unit watershed, even if the target water quality was maintained in the managed water system. Therefore, it is necessary to introduce the total maximum load management at tributaries to manage the pollution load of tributaries with a high degree of pollution. In this study, the HSPF model, a watershed runoff model, was applied to the target areas consisting of 53 sub-watersheds to analyze the effect of water quality changes the in tributaries on the mainstream. Sub-watersheds were selected from the three major areas of the Paldang water system, including the drainage basins of the downstream of the South Han-River, Gyeongan stream, and North Han-River. As a result, BOD ranged from 0.17 mg/L to 4.30 mg/L, and was generally high in tributaries and decreased in the downstream watershed. TP ranged from 0.02 mg/L - 0.22 mg/L, and the watersheds that had a large impact on urbanization and livestock industry were high, and the North Han-River basin was generally low. In addition, a pollution source reduction scenario was selected to analyze the change in water quality by the amount of pollution load discharged at each unit watershed. The reduction rate of BOD and TP according to the scenario changes was simulated higher in the watershed of the downstream of the North Han-River and downstream and midstream of the Gyeongan stream. It was found that the benefits of water quality reduction from each sub-watershed efforts to improve water quality are greatest in the middle and downstream of each main stream, and it is judged that it can be served as basic data for the management of total tributaries.

The Ministry of the Environment conducts a water environment management plan and TMDL(Total Maximum Daily Load) for integrated watershed management, and determines whether the target water quality is achieved using water quality monitoring data. The concentration of monitoring points located in the downstream of the watershed is the outcome of complicated mechanisms such as influx of pollutants from the tributaries of the watershed and self-purification of river water. The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of main stream and tributary water quality on the target water quality point using the water pollution source tracking and exceedance rate of watershed. In this study, FDC and exceedance rate analysis were performed on six water quality items including BOD and T-P, which are the targets of TMDL. Water quality items and points affecting the target water quality point were derived from flow rate. In this study, the pollution source tracking through FDC analysis and exceedance rate analysis will be able to establish more efficiently the water quality management strategy for each branch to achieve the target water quality.

This study estimates adequate discharge to meet the specified target water quality concentration using the pollutant load of the Geum river basin given in TMDL (Total Maximum Daily Load) report. During the 1st phase, BOD is chosen as a target water quality constituent under regulation of the Ministry of Environment in Korea. BOD, TN, and TP loads estimated based on the TMDL and provincial zones were re-distributed for 10 major tributaries, and the remaining areas along the main river are classified as 15 incremental flow areas. Water quality modeling was conducted using Qual2E for the low flow period of a year (i.e. $March{\sim}April$). The results of the model simulation showed that about 30 cms from the Daechung dam would be sufficient to satisfy the target water quality in the Geum river downstream of the Daechung multipurpose Dam.

The tributary water quality and flowrate monitoring result, which is fundamental data for the establishment of the water environmental policy, is used as very important data for the implementation of TMDL. This study introduced how to use the tributary water quality and flowrate monitoring data for the analysis of the watersheds, the satisfactory assessment of water quality standards in the watersheds, the selection of watersheds for the establishment of the implementation plan, and the selection of the tributary catchments for improving the water quality using a stream grouping method. According to the analytical results of tributary catchment using water quality and flowrate monitoring data of thirty-seven tributaries in the Geum-River watershed at Chungcheongnam-do, the value of flowrate in the tributaries, which is located in the middle-lower Geum-River watershed, was greater than the other areas and the concentration of the water pollutants regardless of water quality parameters in the tributaries at Nonsancheon catchment was relatively higher than the other areas. The problems, which have the determination of satisfaction of water quality standards and selection of target watersheds for establishment of the implementation plan regardless of the water quality of tributary in the watershed due to the water quality and flowrate monitoring results of the main river, were improved use of the results of tributary water quality and flowrate monitoring. Also, the tributary catchments for improving the water quality, according to stream grouping method based on the results of tributary water quality and flowrate monitoring, were selected. In the Geum-River watershed at Chungcheongnam-do, the tributary in the Nonsancheon, Byeongcheoncheon, Seokseongcheon, Jocheon catchments, which has a large flow and a high concentration of water pollutants, should be preferentially selected for improving the water quality of the tributary in accordance with the reduction of the source of pollution.

This study conducted water quality projection of year 2010 in Miho stream of the Geum river basin by using GIS. Pollutant load data of corresponding tributary of the Miho stream is estimated based on the pollutant load of TMDL zone to simulate water quality of the Miho stream for BOD, TN, and TP. The pollutant load of the urban area such as Bochung and Musim stream basin is relatively high and the wastewater treatment plant of Chunju city directly affects the entire water quality of the target area. As a result, simulation result reveals that water treatment facility needs more refined treatment process for efficient water quality management. Also, to meet the target water quality of the Miho stream water quality simulation estimates the additional dilution flow by increasing irrigation water supplied from the Daechung dam through the Musim stream.
