Since 2000, environmental policies and regulations in Korea are rapidly changing to TMDL(Total Maximum Daily Load) and nonpoint source control. This is due to bad water quality in drinking water sources. Although many environmental facilities having high removal efficiency are constructed and applied in nationwide for controling various pollutants from wastewaters, the water quality in rivers is worse and worse because of nonpoint pollution. In fact, TMDL is a new environmental regulation controling total daily loadings from watershed areas. Actually, the nonpoint pollutant is originated from various landuses and its control is based on TMDL regulation. Therefore, this research is performed to determine the size of detention basin to control nonpoint pollutants from resort developing areas. The detention basin is one of best management practices, which is useful for controling pollutants and flooding from the developing areas. However, it should be designed and constructed with cost effective method. Recent 10 years rainfall data are used to determine the size of detention basin. The cost effective size is determined to 7.4mm accumulated rainfall.

This study is to enhance the provincial leisure plans through various programs and infrastructure facilities and to establish a network of natural leisure areas in Gyeonggi-do. According to the result, first, in terms of analyzing the locations of natural leisure areas by types, the rest of urban parks is formed in the Capital area outside Seoul as centering around the central area. Moreover, with regard to the rest of forest and the rest of natural ecology learning, the area of the detention exceeds the total area of Gyeonggi-do. The rest of valleys and swamps showed a dotted pattern of the detention area while the rest of tideland and fishing village experience indicated a distribution of the detention area along the West Coast as an axis. Second, according to result of analyzing the accessibility of natural leisure areas by types, the rest of valleys and swamps showed the highest accessibility among the natural leisure areas : the rest of natural ecology learning had the medium level of accessibility; the rest of forest indicated the lowest accessibility. Therefore, it is necessary to create more leisure areas concerning the futures demands. In addition, they should be constructed in the places adjacent to the urban district area exhibiting higher usability and accessibility. In the places where there are many natural leisure area with higher utility, management plans should be deliberated as well. Based on the result of analyzing the rest of valleys and swamps and the rest of tideland and fishing village experience, it was found that the natural leisure area should improve the quality of water intensively and hydrophile property and create hydrophilic spaces. The development of natural leisure areas need to be carried out under the principle of environmental protection while considering historic sites and nearby rivers and lakes. Moreover, water leisure programs should be developed actively as well with further utilization of water resources in order to enhance the usability of natural leisure.

In order to examine the effect of impermeable surface (rooftop, outdoor parking lot) and rainwater infiltration facilities on runoff pH, pH was measured. pH measurement spots were splash blocks accepted roof runoff of 3 sites, infiltration boxes and trenches accepted parking lot runoff and plastic rainwater harvesting facility accepted roof runoff. These measurements were operated at 3 housing complexes from 2006 to 2009. The rainwater runoff pH was influenced by the quality of the runoff surface material (concrete), the age of the building, waterproofing methods according to each housing site, antecedent rainfall conditions and others. Rain garden, infiltration boxes and trenches decreased the alkalinity of runoff by detention and infiltrating the roof and outdoor parking lot runoff. These results mean that decentralized rainwater management facilities of housing complexes can reduce effect on the outskirt aquatic ecosystem by the accumulation of substances causing pH rising in the infiltration facilities and rain garden.

Recently, due to localized heavy rain and flash floods in urban areas is becoming more frequent flood damage. To prevent flood inundation damage, to formulate the diverse directions in connection with the drainage system of buildings, roads, sewerage, pump stations, detention (retention) pond, and streams is very important. In addition, it is important for the uniform design criteria, the consistent of hydrologic and hydraulic analysis method, and a flood disaster mitigation systems connected with structural and nonstructural measures. To accomplish this, the method such as installation of storage facilities, infiltration facilities, and underground water tank, the optimal size of the design gutter and grate of the road, ensure the capacity of pumping stations, and the installation of a flood control channel into the deep underground requires comprehensive measures dimension in urban areas.

The characteristics of backwash and concentrate discharges depend upon the quality of the water being treated and the net recovery of the membrane system. This paper is to indicate a design methods on the capacities of residuals treatment facilities in membrane processes for drinking water. We operated a demonstration membrane plant with a recovery rate of 90% for designing G-water treatment plant. We investigated on design parameter (optimum coagulant dosage and surface loading rate etc.) to design efficiently the residuals treatment facilities. The settling test was conducted with 1m columns dosing PACl to kaolin and membrane residuals under the experimental condition that discharge permit was under a 60mg/L. When the quantity of membrane residuals was $1,575m^3/day$, the estimated results for 1st thickener demonstrated the surface loading rate of 14.4m/day, detention time of 5.83hr, available depth of 3.5m.

The tuberculosis is the infectious disease. Generally, the active tuberculosis patient can infect the 10 persons for one year within the daily activities like casual conversation and singing together. The infectivity of tuberculosis can continue for a life time, and infected persons can remain at risk for developing active tuberculosis. To control this contagious disease, along with the active tuberculosis patients, non-infectious but non-compliant patients who can be infectious if their immune systems become impaired have to be managed. To control the non-complaint patients, medical treatment order should be combined with the public order. Because tuberculosis is the risk of community health, the human rights like liberty and freedom of movement can be restricted for public welfare under the article 37(2) of constitution. Even when such restriction is imposed, no essential aspect of the freedom or right shall be violated. The degree of restriction on the rights of citizens is different what methods are chosen to non-complaint patients. For example, under the directly observed therapy program, the patients and medical staffs make an appointment and meet to confirm the drug intakes according to the schedule, which is the medical treatment combined with the mildest public order. If the patients break the appointments or have the history of disobedient, the involuntary detention can obtain the legitimate cause. The Tuberculosis Prevention Act has the two step programs on this involuntary detention, The admission order (Article 15) is issued when the patients are infectious. The quarantine order (Artle 15-2) is issued when the patients are infectious and non-complaint. The legal criteria for involuntary detention are discussed and published through the international conventions and covenants. For example, World Health Organization had made guidance on human rights and involuntary detention for tuberculosis control. The restrictions should be carried out in accordance with the our law and in the legitimate objective of public interest. And the restriction should be based on scientific evidence and not imposed in an unreasonable or discriminatory manner. We define and adopt these international criteria under our constitution and legal system. Least restrictive alternative principle, proportionality principle and the individual evaluation methods are explained through the reviews of United States court decisions. Habeas Corpus Act is reviewed and adopted as the procedural due process to protect the patient rights as a citizen. Along with that, what conditions and facilities which are needed to performed quarantine order are discussed.

In this study, we developed a modular rainwater infiltration system that can be applied for general purposes in urban areas to prepare for localized heavy rain caused by climatic change. This study also analyzed the system's effects on reducing runoff. An analysis of the system's effects on reducing runoff based on rainfall data and monitoring data obtained between September 2012 and December 2013 after the system was installed showed that approximately 20~22% of the runoff overflowed from the infiltration facility. Also, an analysis of the runoff that occurred during the monsoon season showed that 25% of the runoff overflowed through the storm sewer system of the urban area. These results show that the rainwater overflows after infiltrating the detention facility installed in the area during high-intensity rainfall of 100mm or higher or when precipitation is 100mm for 3~4 days without the prior rainfall. According to precipitation forecasts, torrential rainfall is becoming increasingly prevalent in Korea which is increasing the risk of floods. Therefore, the standards for storm sewer systems should be raised when planning and redeveloping urban areas, and not only should centralized facilities including sewer systems and rainwater pump facilities be increased, but a comprehensive plan should also be established for the water cycle of urban areas. This study indicates that decentralized rainwater management can be effective in an urban area and also indicates that the extended application of rainwater infiltration systems can offer eco-friendly urban development.

In a broad sense, ‘After-care SYSTEM’ for discharged prisoners mean legal actions of prisoners who have been released from lawful detention In its narrow sense, mean preventive protection and observation activities under regular guidance and supervision against those released from penal facilities after a certain period of detention Therefore, they should not be viewed as objects of mere concern or social work programs but preventive protection should he provided to them as part of national criminal policy After-care system is in the following two ways, The one is based on individual prisoner's request and consent, which is called 'Voluntary After-care system', The other is the one which is not based in personal request or consent but is based on obligation, which is named 'Compulsory After-care system In Korea, however no Compulsory After-care system is in practice Voluntary After-care system is to be carried out 6 method in the following by existing Probation, Parole Law. (1) offer of board and lodging (2) allowance of Traveling expense (3) allowance of occupation instrument or lending rehabilitation fund (4) training of occupation and vocational guidance (5) self-reliance support for After-care probationer (6) guidance of good deed And then to establish the society without offenders is the ideal of human beings, but criminal acts don't fade away, so in the field of the science of criminology, the importance of correctional system has become greater. The correctional idea has moved from severe punishment to educational rehabilitation for the goal of protecting both offender and security from the threat of crime in to day Some it is required that Compulsory After-care system is most important system in effective measures, and that existing Probation, Parole Law in Korea is renewed into Compulsory After-care system in the future.
