오염부지 관리 기조가 매체 중심에서 수용체 중심으로 변화하면서 우리나라에 위해성평가 제도가 도입되었으나, 이를 오염현장에 충분히 활용하기 위한 체계와 관련 기술들은 아직 제대로 확립되어 있지 않다. 특히, 여러 가지 이유로 정화곤란부지로 분류가 되는 오염부지의 정화 및 관리와 그러한 부지에 적용될 수 있는 위해저감기술들에 대한 기술적, 사회적 논의와 합의도 부족한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 그동안 오염토양의 정화에만 초점이 맞추어진 우리나라의 토양환경정책이 오염부지의 관점에서 그와 연결된 수용체를 보호하는 방향으로 나아가기 위해 필요한 위해성기반 오염 부지관리 의사결정체계를 제안하고, 그러한 관리체계가 현장에서 적절히 적용되도록 하기 위해 필요한 위해저감기술들을 조사, 분류하여 위해저감 방식에 따른 위해저감기술의 활용성 및 적용성을 평가하는 방안을 제안하였다.

Defining soil quality in scopes and applications is one of the prerequisite for the sustainable management of soil environment to orient researches, strategies and policies. However, definition of soil quality is controversial depending upon a viewpoint of soil science or soil environment. Soil quality can be, irrespective of the disciplines, defined as the capacity of a soil to function within ecosystem boundaries to sustain biological productivity, maintain environmental quality and promote plant and animal health. Common to all of the soil quality concepts can be summarized as the capacity of soil to function effectively at present and in the future. The OECD includes soil quality as one of the agri-environment indicators. This article intends to i) summarize the current soil quality research, and ii) provide information on protocol of soil quality assessment. A framework for soil quality was divided into three steps: indicator selection as minimum data set (MDS), scoring of the selected indicators, and integration of scores into soil quality index. Korean government suggested possible physical and chemical indicators such as bulk density and organic matter for paddy and upland soils to OECD. The framework of soil quality assessment is not yet implemented in Korea. Countries such as USA, Canada and New Zealand have constructed the framework on soil quality assessment and developed a user-friendly version of soil quality assessment tools to evaluate the integrated effects of various soil management practices. The protocol provided in this review might help policymakers, scientists, and administrators improve awareness about soil quality and understand the way of soil environment management.

Many improper development action were performed at subsurface environment, because there were not any definition about subsurface environment in Korea. The purpose of this study was to establich a definition on subsurface environment. Subsurface environment could be divided by subsurface natural environment and subsurface living environment. The soil, groundwater, ecosystems, landscapes, underground space (naturally occurred) were included in subsurface natural environment. And space and facilities used by human were classified as subsurface living environment.

There have been raised other environmental issues related to remediated soils piled up in numerous carry-out processing facilities because a considerable quantity of them have been produced every year, but most of them have not been relevantly reused or recycled. Thus, this article reports the trend of researches on the development of techniques to restore the quality of remediated soils to activate their reuse and recycling. Firstly, the tendency of change in soil properties through remediation processes was looked over, and then the degradation of soil quality was characterized according to the type of remediation processes. Besides, the direction of policy to promote the reuse and recycling of remediated soils was introduced, and finally, the future works needed were suggested. This article was prepared based on the results of the survey of domestic and foreign literature. A number of literature were reviewed to scrutinize the change of soil properties due to remediation processes and diverse techniques for the amendment and restoration of remediated soils. Furthermore, the policies related to the reuse and recycling of remediated soils were arranged with the reference of the first and second versions of the Soil Conservation Master Plan of Korea. The literature survey focused on three kinds of remediation technologies, such as land farming, soil washing, and thermal desorption, which were most frequently used so far in Korea. The results indicate that the tendency of change in soil properties was significantly different depending on the type of remediation processes applied, and the degradation characteristics of soil quality were also totally different between them. The soil amendment and restoration can be categorized as three techniques depending on the type of substances used, such as inorganic, organic, and biological ones. Diverse individual materials have been used, and the soil properties improved or enhanced were dependent on the type of specific materials utilized. However, few studies on the restoration of soil qualities degraded during the remediation processes have not been carried out so far. The second Soil Conservation Master Plan states the quality certification and target management system of remediated soils, and it is expected that their reuse and recycling will be facilitated hereafter. With the consideration of the type of remediation processes implemented and public utility, the restoration technologies of remediated soils should be developed for the vitalization of their reuse and recycling. Besides, practical and specific measures should be taken to support the policy specified in the second Soil Conservation Master Plan and to promote reuse/recycling of remediated soils.

Soil aggregation begins with flocculation of clay particles triggered by interfacial reactions of polyvalent cation such as Ca²⁺ and Fe³⁺, and they are also known as important elements to control the mobility of arsenic in soil environment. The objective of this study was to investigate the feasibility of CMDS (coal mine drainage sludge) for soil loss reduction and stabilization of arsenic-contaminated soil in a 37% sloped farmland under rainfall simulation. The amount of soil loss decreased by 43% when CMDS was applied, and this result was not significantly different from the case of limestone application, which yielded 46% decrease of soil loss. However, the relative amount of dispersed clay particles in the sediment CMDS-applied soil was 10% lower than that of limestone-applied soil, suggesting CMDS is more effective than limestone in inducing soil aggregation. The concentrations of bioavailable arsenic in CMDS amended soil decreased by 46%~78%, which was lower than the amount in limestone amended soil. Therefore, CMDS can be used as an effective amendment material to reduce soil loss and stabilize arsenic in sloped farmland areas.

국가적인 수자원 다변화 정책의 일환으로 충적층을 활용한 강변여과, 지하수댐, 직접 함양 등의 다양한 충적층 지하수 인공함양 활용 가능성이 점차적으로 증대되고 있지만, 국내에서는 이를 구체적으로 활용하기 위하여 필요한 충적층 지하수의 개발 및 관리를 위한 충적층 수문지질도를 찾아보기 힘든 실정이다. 따라서, 본 발표에서는 부여 군수리 지역을 시범 대상 지역으로 선정하여 수자원 개발을 위한 충적층 활용 가능성을 평가하기 위해 기본적으로 필요한 지형적, 지질학적, 수리적 및 환경적 요소들을 포함하는 시범 충적층 수문지질도를 작성하였다. 본 충적층 수문지질도에는 지하수위 및 수질 변화, 지표 토양조건 및 지하 대수층 분포 등를 추정할 수 있는 다양한 자료들을 포함하고 있으며, 대부분의 이들 자료는 직접 현장 조사를 통해 획득되었다. 이러한 시범 충적층 수문지질도의 작성은 향후 충적층 지하수의 개발 및 관리시에 기본 자료로 활용될 것이다. 그러나, 앞으로 보다 정밀하고 효용성 있는 충적층 수문지질도 작성을 위해서는 이번 시범 작성을 참조하여 보다 많은 개선과 표준화가 요구된다.

This study aims to provide the technical considerations and implications for the development of soil vulnerability assesment tool based on the review of existing tools and case studies applied both domestically and internationally. For this study, we specifically investigated the basic theories and major features implemented in the screening models abroad. In contrast, one case study of prioritizing the vulnerable districts was presented to identify the research trends in Korea. Our literature review suggested that the characteristic of target areas and contaminants needed to be properly incorporated into soil vulnerability assessment because the current tools in Korea neglected these properties which prevented this tool from being used as a correct measure of soil management and prevention. We also reached the conclusion that in terms of technical aspect, the soil vulnerability assessment tool should be developed based on the physical theory and environmental data that were varied over space and time so that the end-users were able to readily and effectively screen soil vulnerability over large areas. In parallel with technical improvement, great effort needed to be devoted to develop an integrated environmental information system that increased the availability of data and shared various types of environmental data through enhanced multi-agency collaboration.
