This study aims to review the environmental impact assessment systems of Japanese local governments, to compare its outcome with the systems of Korean local governments, and to suggest the development direction for the environmental impact assessment systems of Korean local governments based on the result. The study results showed that, first, due to distinction in the political systems of Japan and Korea, while Japan has bottom-up environmental impact assessment systems, Korea has topdown environment impact assessment systems. Second, although introduction of national systems on planning was put on hold as a future initiative, local governments including Tokyo and Saitama are experimenting evaluation procedures tailored to local features by legislating them as regulations. On the other hand, while 'prior environmental review system' was in effect as a national system, nothing was practiced at all by local governments. Third, in a total of 47 Japanese local governments, about 45 projects and 44 assessment items were added to local government environmental impact assessment only and designated as target projects and assessment items. Fourth, in both national and local environment impact assessment systems in Japan, screening procedures to determine assessment by separating into Type 1 projects and Type 2 projects and scoping procedures to discuss assessment items in advance were introduced and in effect. This Japanese EIA system may serve as a good reference to the Korean national and local government EIA systems.

환경영향평가는 개발사업의 해로운 환경영향 감소를 위해 시행되는 규제적 성격의 제도이다. 그러나 환경가치는 계량화가 어렵고 불확실성이 따르기 때문에 제도 운영의 객관성 및 신뢰성 저하 문제가 지속적으로 지적되어 온 실정이다. 따라서 데이터 기반 환경영향평가제도의 필요성이 점차 높아지고 있는데, 특히 환경영향평가는 특정 지역의 개발에 대한 내용을 담기 때문에 공간정보의 비중이 높아 환경공간정보의 활용 가능성이 높은 분야이다. 또한 사후환경관리제도의 도입에 따라 환경정보의 시계열적 제공 및 활용체계가 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 환경영향평가의 제도적 특징을 통해 정보제공체계의 필요성을 도출하고 기존 환경정보 활용체계를 분석하였다. 그리고 이를 토대로 공신력 있는 환경공간정보 제공방안을 제시하여 환경영향평가제도의 한계점 개선을 위한 정책적 함의를 찾고자 하였다.

본 논문에서는 현재 시행되고 있는 우리나라의 해양관련 환경영향평가와 협의제도의 현황과 문제점을 파악하여 관련 제도의 개선방향을 연구하였다. 또한 해양환경관리법상 해역이용영향 검토기관(이하 검토기관이라 함)의 기능과 역할 및 수행실적을 조사하여 SWOT 분석을 실시하였고, 나아가서 운영상 개선사항과 발전방향을 제안하였다. 2007년 검토기관에서 수행한 실적은 총 358건으로, 해역이용협의서가 165건(46.1%)으로 가장 많았고, 환경영향평가서 104건(29.0%), 그리고 사전환경성검토서가 89건(24.9%)이었다. 해역이용협의의 내용별로는 공유수면점 사용, 공유 수면매립과 바다골재채취 관련이 각각 41%, 32%와 21%를 차지하였다. 그러나 이러한 제도시행으로 해역이용개발 행위가 해양환경에 미치는 악영향을 최소화하고 있지만, 사전예기능으로서의 한계와 여러 가지 내용적 그리고 제도상운영상 측면에서 보완하고 개선해야 할 문제점이 지적되었다. 검토기관의 전문성, 공정성과 효율성을 확보하는 것이 매우 중요하고, 이를 위해서는 고유 기능과 역할을 극대화시킬 수 있는 제도적 개선과 운영상 지원이 필요하며, 동시에 자체적으로 적극적인 발전전략을 수립함으로써 전문적인 검토기관으로서의 정체성 확보와 위상을 정립시켜야 할 것이다. 연안관리의 실효성을 확보하기 위해서는 효율적인 해역이용협의제도를 지향하고, 주무부처의 해양환경관리에 대한 구동력과 능동성을 강화 확립해 나가야 할 것이다.

The life cycle assessment method for environmental impact assessment was used, in this study, to assess the production process of wheat flour which is the most important material in the food industry. Environmental impact assessments were compared between that of the Ministry of Environment, Republic of Korea (method I) with that of the Ministry of Commerce, Industry and Energy (method II). Life cycle inventories (LCI) was performed using internal and external databases and the production statistics database of company S. The procedure of life cycle impact assessment (LCIA) was followed in terms of classification, characterization, normalization and weighting to identify the key issues. The impact categories of method I were divided into 8 categories with consideration of : abiotic resources depletion, global warming, ozone depletion, photochemical oxidant creation, acidification and eutrophication. The impact categories of method II were divided into 10 categories with consideration of: abiotic resources depletion, global warming, ozone depletion, photochemical oxidant creation, acidification, eutrophication, human toxicity, freshwater aquatic ecotoxicity, marine aquatic ecotoxicity and terrestrial ecotoxicity.

The present study was performed to improve the Environmental Impact Assessment system by comparing and analysing EIA systems for Residential Developments in the light of the business practice. For the improvement of EIA system, future strategies from each of three part ; the organ of approval(Construction&Transportation Dept.) for residential developments, the organ of consultation(Environment Dept.) for EIA and a developer(Korea Nation Housing Corp.), were analysed, and EIA systems and the processes of Residential developments were analysed. Results from the analysis of problems have provided a proposal for improvement of the Environmental Impact Assessment.

Although Environmental Impact Assessment(EIA) in Korea has been improved markedly over the past two decades, by enlarging the range of projects for assessment, instituting pub lic participation and environmental monitoring, and similar measures, it remains deficient in its coverage of human health in Environmental Impact Statements(EISs). Health Impact Assessment(HIA) can supply the necessary correctives. HIA is a combination of procedures, methods and tools by which a policy, programme, projects or legislative procedure may be judged for its potential effects on the health of a population, and the distribution of these effects within it. The principle of health protection is, however, established as a primary concern in EIA processes, in practice health is scarcely mentioned or the discussion is limited to a description of effects through the biophysical environment. The whole range of possible effects on health, including those mediated by socio-economic factors is often ignored, and no effective mechanism are in place to successfully incorporating health criteria and expertise into environmental, assessment(EA) that include ElA, SEA. These are foremost among the current issues facing EIA in Korea.

We studied improvement in marine environmental impact assessment and related management systems of coastal sediments that are dredged inshore but disposed offshore. After reviewing and diagnosing the existing assessment procedures and problems, we recommend to design the core assessment items and improve the reliability of assessment byenhancing the quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) and verification processes. We proposed eco-friendly disposal plan for dredging sediment such as reuse system in land development was explored. A marine environmental database system was established to support the assessment processes. Guidelines for marine research and modelling were proposed for improving assessment of dredging and disposal of coastal sediment. Also, applying of screening and scoping for marine environmental assessment was reviewed.

Interest has been growing worldwide in unconventional natural gas that has become an increasingly important source of energy in the world. Unconventional gas development, including shale gas, generally involves a larger environmental impact, compared to conventional gas development, due to its intensity and scale of the operation. There are a growing number of studies on identifying and minimizing the environmental impacts of unconventional gas development. This study aims to examines the current environmental policies and regulatory systems related to the unconventional gas development. The study shows that few environmental regulation exists concerning unconventional gas development, even in the USA where unconventional gas development is most actively pursued. Regulations, however, are being developed based on studies currently underway on health and environmental risks of unconventional gas development and on guidelines designed to reduce the risks. In a world where environmental regulations are ever strengthening, review the environmental regulatory systems and guidelines about unconventional gas need to be established for Korean firms to understand environmental impacts of unconventional gas development they invest or take part in, enabling them to manage and operate gas activities in a way that minimizes environmental damages.

Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is composed of various procedures, such as screening, scoping, inventory survey, prediction, assessment, alternative assessment, mitigation measures, and post management. Environmental monitoring data for air quality or water quality, etc. is applied in the EIA process, especially in prediction and post management. As an effective tool of environmental monitoring, the remote sensing method, introduced recently, was used in collecting nationwide data concerning ecosystem and land use. This article explains the current monitoring status in Korea. Monitoring factors include air quality, water quality, soil, ocean, odor, noise, and ecosystems. This report explains the organization of the environmental monitoring system managed by the Ministry of Environment in Korea. Furthermore, it shows the environmental criteria and environmental policies applied to EIA in Korea.
