The Ministry of Environment in Korea has been promoting the urban stream restoration project for paved streams in cities as the restored Cheonggyecheon. As an elementary study for suggesting policy implications for the project, cost and benefit criteria for an ex-post analysis on the Cheonggyecheon project is suggested in this study. The ex-ante analysis were reviewed critically by focusing on the cost and benefit criteria. Ex-post analysis plan in this study is developed considering the standard guideline of pre-feasibility, the theory of cost-benefit analysis, and the review results. The costs for compensating lands, amending conflicts, researching rivers, and maintaining water quantity were also included. For the benefits, this study proposes to estimate the benefits with the assessment on naturalness of stream. The results are expected to contribute to increase the efficiency of the urban stream restoration project and evaluate the project to match better with the meaning of the river restoration.

본 연구에서는 계절별 기후인자를 고려하여 정성적 및 정량적 위험성 평가를 실시하여 사고 시나리오를 설정하였고, 비용-편익분석을 실시하여 사고 시나리오별 안전관리 비의 효율을 분석하였다. 그 결과, 최악의 시나리오는 비정상조업에서 유지보수 오류이었고, 가능성 있는 시나리오는 HAZOP 구간#4에서 발생되는 가스 누출사고이었으며, 각 사고 시나리오에서 전체 안전관리 투자비에 대한 편익/비용은 0.043과 0.13이었다. 이때 각 사고 시나리오에서 비용 효과적인 안전관리 항목을 평가할 수 있었다.

Seoul metropolitan has established a vision as 'Healthy water-cycle city' to resolve urban water-environmental deterioration. And it established administrative structure to expand Low Impact Development (LID) facilities to recover aggravated water-cycle and water-environment. Therefore, various LID facilities are constructed and operated, however, benefit analytic plans for systematic valuation are insufficient. In this study, to analyze economic, environmental and social benefits of LID facilities, contents for benefit analysis were selected and categorized as water, energy, air quality and climate changes. As a result of quantification and valuation to the beneficial effects, LID facilities showed the total benefit as 1,191~3,292 won/yr. Characteristics of benefit distribution by analysis contents were various reflecting functional characteristics of each LID facility (Water: 30~90%, Energy: 4~44%, Air quality: <1~2%, Climate change: 5~22%). As a result of Triple Bottom Line analysis, economic benefit showed the greatest portion as 75~90%. As further studies, suggested benefit assessment plans for each LID facility should be applied to inter-connected LID systems on complex-scaled area, and synergy effects by various LID systems would be evaluated such as prevention of heat island and flood disasters.

댐 운영 제약조건의 해소, 댐 기능회복, 댐직하류 하천에 대한 치수적 안정성 확보, 댐 운영의 효율성 제고 등을 위하여 댐 홍수조절과 댐직하류 하천의 연계 등 치수측면을 고려한 댐직하류 하천정비사업의 조기시행이 요구되었으며, 아울러 일부 댐의 건천방지를 위한 하천유지용량 확보, 하천수질개선, 하천생태계조성, 하천공간조성 등 이수 및 환경 생태 측면에서도 댐직하류 하천정비사업의 필요성이 제기되어 32개 댐 하류하천을 대상으로 하천정비사업이 추진 중에 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 대청댐, 임하댐, 용담댐 3개 댐을 시범사례로 선정하여 댐직하류 하천정비사업에 따른 경제적 편익의 개념을 정립하고 직접 추정하고자 한다. 편익 항목으로 생활용수 공급편익, 공업용수 공급편익, 농업용수 공급편익, 유지용수 공급편익, 발전편익, 홍수조절 편익 등을 고려하였는데, 대청댐은 연간 37.5억원, 임하댐은 연간 60.1억원, 용담액은 연간 42.5억원의 경제적 편익이 발생하여 3개 댐을 합하면 댐직하류 하천정비사업의 경제적 편익이 연간 140.1억원에 달하는 것으로 분석되었다. 이 편익을 다시 국가 대 한국수자원공사로 배분하였더니 약 38% 대 62%로 계산되어, 현행 부담 비율인 40% 대 60%는 비교적 적절하다고 판단된다.

This study aims to analyze the feasibility of installing a storage facility and make recommendations based on a cost-benefit analysis regarding the installation of a storage facility capable of preventing both floods and droughts. The capacity and installation costs are specified for the storage facility necessary to prevent floods, and a cost-benefit analysis is conducted by calculating the costs and benefits for each cost or benefit factor such as loss amounts, recovery costs, and drought prevention. The information can be used as the basic data for suggesting the feasibility of installing a multipurpose storage facility capable of preventing floods and droughts simultaneously. Also, this study expects to utilize its detailed results in a number of different ways including the prediction of loss amounts from natural disasters.

A climate change by increase of greenhouse gas is coming to the front by a large issue, and oxy-combustion demonstration project is coming to the attention to one plans for the reduction of carbon dioxide in power generation sector that used a fossil energy in points of time. This paper estimates benefit of electric generation, benefit of greenhouse gas reduction, benefit of environmental pollutant decreasing and domestic and foreign market value-added benefit caused by oxy-combustion demonstration project. Furthermore, this paper attempts to cost-benefit analysis, using NPV, B/C ratio, IRR techniques for oxy-combustion demonstration project. The results indicate that NPV is 681,620million KRW, B/C ratio 1.69 and IRR 21.4%. Accordingly, oxy-combustion demonstration project ensures economic feasibility that the three indicators have exceeded 0, 1.0 and 5.5%. Moreover, uses of the result is useful for the reduction of carbon dioxide in thermal power generation sector of policy decision.

홍수빈도분석의 실용적 측면의 목적은 특정 재현기간에 대하여 발생 가능한 홍수량을 설계홍수량(design flood)으로 설정함으로써 댐, 제방, 배수시설, 하수관거 등의 치수기능을 가진 치수시설물이 설계홍수량 내에서 홍수로 인한 피해를 발생시키지 않도록 그 규모와 기능을 설계함에 있다. 이와 같은 중요한 기능을 담고 있는 홍수빈도분석의 기술적 절차는 해외 및 국내의 기존 연구자들에 의해 많은 연구가 진행된 바 있으나, 보다 적절한 설계홍수량 산정절차 및 설계홍수량의 최종 결정을 위한 기술적 수단의 제공을 위한 연구가 많은 연구자들에 의해 지금도 진행 중에 있다. 그러나 이와 같이 결정된 설계홍수량이 특정유역에서 발생될 수 있는 피해규모에 대해 얼마나 적정한 지의 여부를 과학적으로 판단하기 위한 연구는 많지 않다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 홍수빈도분석을 통해 산정된 설계홍수량의 적정성 여부를 과학적으로 판단하기 위해 비용-편익분석 기법을 이용하여 최적설계홍수량을 결정하였다. 특히 본 연구에서는 불확실성으로 발생되는 범위를 고려한 최적설계홍수량을 산정하기 위하여 Metropolis-Hastings 알고리즘을 사용하였으며, 자료의 종류에 따른 홍수량의 변화를 분석하기 위하여 년최대계열 및 부분시계열 자료를 각각 적용하였다. 한강유역에서 가평대성, 여주 및 한강대교 수위표 지점에서 측정된 자동관측유량장치에 의한 홍수량 자료를 활용하였으며, 최적설계홍수량이 기존 설계홍수량에 비해 크게 산정됨을 알 수 있었다.

Recently, urban information system(UIS) has been developed and utilized by local governments in Korea and has become a key means of urban informatization of local governments. When UIS is conducted only for FM oriented internal utilization regardless of its cost-efficiency, however, its cost-benefit structure could be distorted seriously. The study utilizes benefit cost analysis technique and applied the technique to a model case of Chungju UIS selected by National GIS team. Chungju City developed its GIS for the management of roads and urban planning in 1993. At its beginning, the system was an efficient model with relatively strong cost-benefit structure and could produce positive net benefit 10 years' after its construction. When the city began to develop its facility management with the financial assistance from central government in 1998, however, its cost-benefit structure became distorted. As a result, it is delayed for the UIS to produce positive net benefit until the year of 2015. Using benefit cost ratio, discount rate and Mobile GIS, the study also conducts a sensitivity analysis.

Environmental impact is getting more attention in many feasibility studies for railroad-related projects and research items. For sustainable growth and green transportation, the benefits typically used for feasibility studies in railway-related projects, are composed mostly of economic criterions which is not considering growing attention on changing paradigm. Based on the analysis of current methodologies, improvements in estimating environmental impact especially on noise and pollution are suggested. Active steering bogie has been proposed to satisfy stabilizing and steering performance of railroad. This paper describes the feasibility study of the active steering bogie for a urban railway vehicle based on environment-related criteria.
