Monitored data (rainfall runoff and water quality) from 4 different paddy sites over 3 years were compared to analyze the effect of irrigation water management on irrigation supply and rainfall runoff quality in Korea. The system of rice intensification water management was adopted at one site (SRI) while the conventional water management method was used for rice culture at the other three sites (CT, SD and HD). The soil texture at SRI, CT and SD was sandy loam while that at HD was silt loam. The average reduction of irrigation supply at SRI compared with CT, SD and HD during the 3 years studied was 49%, 51% and 55%, respectively. The average event mean concentration (EMC) at SRI compared with that at CT, SD and HD was decreased by 35% (BOD), 44% (COD), 47% (SS), 19% (TN) and 38% (TP). The correlation between rainfall runoff and the measured non-point source (NPS) pollutants was very good in general. The comparison revealed that SRI water management significantly reduced both irrigation supply and EMC in rainfall runoff. Paddy NPS pollution was closely related to factors that induce runoff such as rainfall and irrigation supply. It was concluded that SRI management could be an effective and practical option to cope with both water shortage due to climate change and water quality improvement in rural watersheds. However, further studies are recommended in large irrigation districts for use in the development and implementation of NPS pollution policies since the data was collected from field sized paddies.

The stormwater runoff from rest areas in highways are known as more polluted compared to highways because of more vehicle activities. This study is performed to find pollutant characteristics in the rest areas in the magnitude of statistical pollutant concentrations during storms. Washoff characteristics of pollutants from rest areas by monitoring of rainfall, runoff rate and runoff samples were evaluated. High concentrations of pollutants in runoff were observed at the beginning of runoff and rapid decrease thereafter, indicating that first-flush effects are clearly occurred. Event Mean Concentrations(EMCs) of TSS, COD, TN, and TP are estimated to be in the range of 31.04-127.11mg/L, 35.5-369.5mg/L, 2.62-9.86 mg/L, and 0.53-1.96mg/L, respectively. Heavy metals in runoff showed relatively high values, possibly due to the abrasion of brake pad or tire while cars are slowly moving for parking. EMCs of total Pb, total Cu, and total Ni are in the range of $1206-16293{\mu}g/L$, $237-7906{\mu}g/L$, and $53-6372{\mu}g/L$, respectively. Pollutant loading per rest area calculated by using EMC, flowrate and target area is also described for each pollutant.

Non-point source pollutants and high-concentration livestock wastewater are reported as major factor of water pollution in water system and wet-land. So, LID is suggested as a method to manage of them. wet-lands is presented as effective method for management of NPS from agriculture and livestock farm area based on various NPS reduction mechanism. In this research, the application of wet-lands was evaluated based on monitoring and modeling of agriculture and livestock farm in J city, Jeollabuk-do. As a resutl, EMC during rainfall event was found to be about 27 times higher than dry season based on a BOD. indicating that the management of non-point pollutants is urgent. Modeling-based wet-land reduction efficiency was BOD 57.5%, TN 48.9% and Tp 64.2%. However, removal efficiency of wet-land tends to decrease during the winter and large amounts of rainfall runoff occur, it is necessary to manage of wet-land. Based on the results of this research, wet-land could be proposed as an alternative to stable management of NPS in agriculture and livestock farm area.

The Non-Point Sources shows different characteristics over a wide area depending on basin situation and rainfall events etc. In addition, Among various land uses in the urban areas, runoff appears high in the paved area, though small in its size, during a heavy rain than in other land use owing to its high impervious rate, and pollutants become severly accumulated owing to continual transportation of vehicles, characteristically showing high concentrations of runoff in the early stage. As a result, several advanced countries including USA give a special emphasis on the paved area as a target for supervision. In view of these aspects, the research is not only required to consider separated sub-basins which are distributed according to land uses, but also needed to develop a suitable monitoring which is reflected rainfall-runoff relation. The on-site monitoring has been performed to collect data in object watershed as well.

The objective of this study is to obtain adequate intercepting flow during wet weather conditions in combined sewer system. Two study sites are selected under considering different population density, one is developed area with heavy urbanization. Another is recently developing area. In the analysis of field investigation, SS was most significant in initial flushing effects compared with other factors and showed the result with the order of COD, TP, TN. As compared with event mean concentration(EMC) of runoff, BOD, TN and TP showed high concentrations in wide area with relatively large population density. It is by the reason that much pollution load was discharged to receiving water from urbanized area during wet period. According to results of storm-water modeling, 53% of total COD and 52% of total SS pollution load were discharged to receiving water by overflow than intercepting capacity in middle population density site. Also, in the urbanized area, pollution load was discharged to receiving water by 49% of total COD and 77% of total SS. These results can be applied to setup for pollution load flow(budget) generation, collection, treatment and discharging in order to obtain adequate intercepting flow.

어떤 강우사상에 대해서 특정유역으로부터의 오염물질 유출특성은 첨두농도, 산술 평균농도, 첨두 오염물질 부하량, 평균 오염물질 부하량 또는 총 유출 부하량 등으로 나타낼 수 있다(이재수 등, 2001). 그러나, 대부분의 경우 강우시 발생하는 총 부하량이 개개의 농도 또는 첨두 부하량보다 더욱 중요하다. 그 이유는 유출사상이 비교적 짧고, 강우 유출수가 유입되는 수체, 특히 저수지나 댐 내에서는 어느 정도의 혼합 현상이 수반되므로 저수지내의 오염물질 농도는 강우로 인한 유출수(저수지로 유입되는)내 개개의 농도변화보다는 결국 총 부하량의 반응이기 때문이다. 특히, 저수지나 호수에서 질소와 인과 같은 영양염류에 대해서 총 부하량은 가장 중요한 수질영향 및 결정 변수일 수밖에 없다. 이와 같은 이유로 강우사상에 대한 평균농도 또는 유량가중 평균농도(EMC, event mean concentration)는 비점원 오염물질의 유출을 평가하는데 가장 적절한 인자로 인식되고 있으며, 가장 널리 이용되고 있다 (EPA, 1983). 본 연구에서 소하천 유역을 대상으로 유량과 수질농도를 실측하여 대상하천에 대한 수문자료를 구축하고, 오염부하모의 모형을 통해 대상유역에서의 강우사상별 오염부하량을 모의하였는데 모형의 보정은 실측된 유량자료를 활용하였으며, 실측된 수질농도자료와 유량자료로 산정한 오염부하량 자료를 통해 검증하였다. 검증된 모형에 대하여 100개의 강우사상에 대한 무작위 모의를 수행하였고, 결과자료를 활용하여 대상하천에 대한 강우-오염부하량의 상관관계식을 도출하였다.

Yongsan ward is located at central place connecting south and north ecology axis of seoul. Various environment-friendly Yongsan development could pose positive effects on NPS(non pollutant source) pollutant reductions and water quality improvement at Han-rive because BOD, T-N, and T-P NPS discharges took 90% of total pollutant from this area. In this study, direct runoff and NPS pollutant loads were evaluated before and after development using spatio-tamporal change in CN(curve number) and EMC(event mean concentration) data. It was found that direct runoff value is $23,584,724m^3$, and BOD, T-N and T-P loads are 104,456 kg/year, 111,483 kg/year and 7,500 kg/year under pre-development condition, respectively. Annual runoff, BOD, T-N and T-P reducing rate were 12.9%, 33.3%, 35.6% and 40.7% under integrated post-development condition, respectively. Based on the results obtained in this study, environment-friendly urban development could be achieved at Yongsan area.

National Institute of Environmental Research (NIER) has proposed new methodology for estimating unit load in order to overcome the limitations of past unit load based on short-term and local area based data. In the case of agricultural land, however, the results presented by NIER are still limited because of various agricultural activities and farmland characteristics. In this study, liquid manure treated paddy field and organic farming upland were selected for considering agricultural diversity. Four different methods for evaluating unit load were used for comparing previous research results. The results of different methods presented various trends compared with those of existing studies. Paddy field treated liquid manure was 1.3 times higher for T-N load and 3.1 times for T-P load than conventional paddy field. Conventional upland was 4.4 times higher for T-N load and 1.8 times higher for T-P load than organic farming upland. In the case of non-conventional farmland, this study showed different values with the unit loads presented by NIER. This implies that it is necessary to review and apply the unit loads considering various agricultural conditions when establishing environmental policy and rural planning.

도암호 유역 위치한 강원도 평창군 대관령면 일대는 고랭지 농업이 주로 이루어지는 곳으로 강우시 토양 유실로 인한 하천의 수질오염이 빈번하게 발생하고 있다. 비점오염원은 강우시 호수와 하천으로 유입되는 특징을 가지고 있으며 불특정 발생원에서 불특정 기상조건과 경로에 의해 발생하여 지속적인 모니터링에는 어려움이 따른다. 이러한 비점오염원 중에서도 농촌지역에서 발생되는 비점오염원은 정확한 기작이 분석되지 않고 있어 수질오염에 큰 문제가 되고 있다. 본 연구는 도암호 유역 송천에서 2019년 7월부터 10월까지 6회 모니터링을 실시하였다. 이후 각 강우사상에서 비점오염물질의 유출에 미치는 강우요인(선행무강우일수, 강우지속시간, 총 강우량, 최대강우량, 평균강우량)을 분석하였다. 또한 강우유출수 분석을 통해 유량가중평균농도(EMC, Event Mean Concentration)을 산정하여 각 강우사상에서 유출된 오염원의 농도를 정량화하였으며, 초기세척비율(MFFn, Mass First Flush ratio)를 산정하여 강우초기에 유출된 오염원의 농도를 알아보았다. 분석결과 강우의 특성과 모니터링 시기별 영농단계에 의해 강우사상별 오염원의 농도와 초기세척비율의 차이를 보인 것으로 판단된다. 추후 지속적인 모니터링과 분석을 통한 강우강도에 따른 효율적인 비점오염원 저감대책과 관리 방안이 필요할 것으로 보인다.

유역으로 유입되는 오염물질의 발생원은 점오염원과 비점오염원으로 구분할 수 있으며 점오염원의 경우 생활하수, 산업폐수, 그리고 축산폐수에 대해 처리시설 확충 및 기술개발을 통해 관리하고 있다. 비점오염원에서의 오염물질 유출은 토지이용, 강우, 불특정적인 오염물질 투입상태 등에 따라 다르며, 지역적 특성에 영향을 받기 때문에 불확실성이 고려되어야 한다. 특히 농촌지역에서의 비점오염은 접근이 어렵고 관리주체가 모호하여 좀처럼 규명되지 않았으며, 전국적으로 그 영향이 정량화되지 않아 실질적인 관리 및 대책마련에 어려움이 있었다. 특히, 가축분뇨의 발생으로부터 처리, 자원화에 이르기까지 각 관리체계에 있어서 축산비점오염의 배출경로와 수계오염부하량, 수질환경 영향을 정밀하게 분석하여 향후 대책마련을 위한 기초자료를 확보할 필요가 있다. 또한 전국적으로 비점오염이 수계에 미치는 영향과, 그 중 축산비점오염의 영향을 면밀히 분석하여 향후 정책 및 제도개선을 위한 과학적 기초자료로서 활용할 필요가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 축산 밀집 지역을 대상으로 오염원 조사를 통해 강우시 비점오염 모니터링 지점을 선정 하였으며, 년5회씩 강우 모니터링을 하여 기초데이터를 축적 하였다. 대상지역은 강원도 횡성군에 위치한 일리천 유역이며 농가 수는 총 90개의 농가가 위치하고 있는데 그 중 돼지 1,467마리, 한우 1,957마리, 젖소 581마리, 개 2,880마리, 닭 75,000마리, 사슴 4마리로 조사되었다. 대상유역을 대상으로 배출부하량을 조사한 결과 BOD 배출부하량은 총 509.3 kg/day, T-N 배출부하량은 총 331.5 kg/day, T-P 배출부하량은 총 28.3 kg/day로 조사되었다. 유출특성을 파악하기 위하여 유량가중평균농도(Event Mean Concentration, EMC)를 산정한 결과 BOD의 경우 MW-4에서 1.2 mg/L - 7.2 mg/L, MW-5에서 0.8 mg/L - 6.3 mg/L, MW-7에서 0.7 mg/L - 5.2 mg/L의 범위를 보였다. T-N의 경우 MW-4에서 1.426 mg/L - 5.321 mg/L, MW-5에서 1.205 mg/L - 4.27 mg/L, MW-7에서 0.989 mg/L - 3.859 mg/L의 범위를 보였다. T-P의 경우 MW-4에서 0.245 mg/L - 0.632 mg/L, MW-5에서 0.236 mg/L - 0.596 mg/L, MW-7에서 0.213 mg/L - 0.521 mg/L의 범위를 보였다. 본 연구에서 EMC를 산정한 방법은 평시 수질 및 유량을 정하는 기준에 따라 값이 많이 달라질 수 있다. 따라서 합리적으로 평시 부하량을 제외하고 강우시의 영향을 파악할 수 있는 EMC 산정방법에 대한 추가적인 고찰이 필요할 것으로 사료된다.
