Most wells developed in Jeju island before the enactment of the Groundwater Management Ordinance in 2002 are vulnerable to aquifer contamination due to inflow of upper groundwater having the high concentration of nitrate nitrogen, likely due to incomplete grouting in upper section of the wells. Although these wells require entire reinstallation, it is often necessary to rehabilitate the existing wells due to various constraints. Therefore, to identified the inflow section of contaminants, the thermal level sensor (TLS) technique was firstly applied for three wells, which enables to monitor temperature variations in every 50 cm depth. Then, the grouting material was injected to the upper section to prevent the inflow of upper contaminated groundwater into the entire aquifer. By applying TLS technique, it was found that the temperature deviations in the upper groundwater inflow section decreased sharply. Moreover, both the change in the concentration of nitrate nitrogen in the rainy/dry seasons and the average concentrations were found to decrease rapidly after grouting material injection. Consequently, the application of TLS proposed in the study turned out to be appropriate to prevent aquifer contamination.

지하수의 보전 보호를 위한 정책 중 가장 중요한 것이 지역적으로 지하수 보전구역을 지정하여 관리하는 것이며, 지하수 보전구역은 지하수법(제12조)에 의하여 지하수 보전지구와 개발제한지구로 분류되어 관리하도록 규정되어 있다. 금번연구에서는 GIS(지리정보시스템)을 이용하여 서울시 지하수 분류도를 먼저 작성한 후 가장 수질이 양호한 1급 및 2급 지하수 대창지역(상류의 지하수 함양지역이나 유일 대수층지역 등)을 지하수 보전지구의 우선 대상지역으로 선정하였으며, 지하수분류는 건설교통부(2000)에서 제시한 지하수의 현재 수질상태, 음용수원으로서의 현재 및 장래 이용성, 기초 수리지질특성, 각종 지하수오염유발행위.시설 소재여부 등에 따라 4등급 분류방법을 기본으로 하였다. 작성된 지하수 분류도에서 1차 선정된 서울시 지하수 보전지구 우선 대상지는 약 57,1$\textrm{km}^2$(서울시 전체면적의 약 9.4%)로 나타났으며, 보전지구의 최종 지정을 위해서는 대상지역에 대한 지하수 정밀조사가 필요하다. 또한 지하수 보전지구의 관리방안도 제주도(2000)와 건설교통부(2000)의 지하수 보전관리계획을 참조하여 서울시에 적합한 안이 마련되었다.

Water quality in Lake Rotorua, New Zealand, deteriorated since the 1960s because of excessive phytoplankton growths due principally to increasing nitrogen and phosphorus in the lake waters. Nutrient concentrations in eight of the nine major streams feeding Lake Rotorua have increased since 1965. The groundwater system has a key role in the hydrology of the Lake Rotorua catchment and the groundwater system is probably the control on the time delay between intensification of agricultural land use and response of surface water quality. All major, and many minor streams, in the catchment are fed by springs. Two lithological units are most important to groundwater flow in the Lake Rotorua catchment: Mamaku Ignimbrite, erupted in about 200,000 years ago and Huka Formation sediments which filled the caldera left by the Mamaku Ignimbrite eruption. Rainfall recharge to groundwater in the groundwater catchment of Lake Rotorua is estimated as approximately 17300 L/s. A calibrated steady-state groundwater flow model estimates that approximately 11100 L/s of this flow discharges into streams and then into the lake and the balance travels directly to Lake Rotorua as groundwater discharge through the lake bed. Land use has impacted on groundwater quality. Median Total Nitrogen (TN) values for shallow groundwater sites are highest for the dairy land use (5.965 mg/L). Median TN values are also relatively high for shallow sites with urban-road and cropping land uses (4.710 and 3.620 mg/L, respectively). Median TN values for all other uses are in the 1.4 to 1.5 mg/L range. Policy development for Lake Rotorua includes defining regional policies on water and land management and setting an action plan for Lake Rotorua restoration. Aims in the action plan include: definition of the current nutrient budget for Lake Rotorua, identification of nutrient reduction targets and identification of actions to achieve targets. Current actions to restore Lake Rotorua water quality include: treatment of Tikitere geothermal nitrogen inputs to Lake Rotorua, upgrade of Rotorua City sewage plant, new sewage reticulation and alum dosing in selected streams to remove phosphorus.

본 연구에서는 기훼손(오염)지역에서 재개발사업을 시행할 때 고려해야할 토양환경관련 개선방안을 환경영향평가 사례에서 도출하였다. 환경영향평가 사례를 보면 소규모공장과 같은 잠재토양오염원이 다수 존재하였고 일부 사례에서는 오염토양도 존재하는 것으로 나타났다. 특히 몇몇의 사례지역에서는 군사시설로 인한 토양오염도 발견되었다. 따라서 재개발사업 진행시 기존 공장 및 군사시설로 인한 토양오염문제를 해결할 수 있는 정책적 방안을 제시하였다. 또한 재개발사업 계획 수립시 녹지공간(greenspace)의 환경적 편익을 최대화하기 위한 토지이용계획을 수립하는 것이 필요한 것으로 판단되었다.

This study was conducted to provide the preliminary data on preparation for policy decisions regarding the groundwater supply scheme for N. Korea vulnerable to drought. Agricultural activities oriented to upland field due to the mountainous terrain more than 79% as well as the diversity of rainfall distribution over the country make more vulnerable to structural problems in the drought in N. Korea. Therefore, in anticipation of the expansion of exchange policies in agricultural sector, the available amount of groundwater needed for sustainable water resources supply was estimated for each administrative district after analyzing alluvium and hydrogeology distribution in N. Korea. Overall, the available amount of groundwater was estimated to 22.3 billion m³ (0.18 million m³/km²). The available amount of groundwater per unit area in Ryanggangdo and Gaesungsi was appeared very high in each of 0.56 and 0.39 million m³/km², respectively, and it would be interpreted that two districts have relatively wide area of volcanic rocks and alluvium with highly permeable characteristics, respectively. Finally, to maximize the utilization of this study result, the available amount of groundwater distribution map was developed on the basis of the 1 × 1 km grid network over the entire N. Korea.

현재 우리나라는 수자원단위지도의 표준유역(850개) 및 KRF의 집수구역(7,807개) 등의 기준 도면이 수자원 정책 수립의 기본 도면으로 활용되고 있으나, 물관리 일원화 시점에 맞추어 지표수-지하수의 연계 관리 및 수량-수질 통합관리를 위해서는 보다 적절한 규모의 표준 도면 설정이 필요해 보인다. 지표수에 비하여 지하수는 느린 이동 속도를 보이고 3차원 흐름 특성을 갖고 있으므로 지표수-지하수 연계 평가를 위해서는 광역적 규모의 유역 보다는 준 유역 규모가 보다 효과적인데, 표준유역보다 평균 면적이 작은 KRF 집수구역은 1차 또는 2차 지류를 포함하는 준 유역 규모에 해당한다. 그러나, KRF는 지표수 수계를 기준으로 구역을 구분하였기 때문에 넓은 평지 또는 높은 산악지역에서는 지나치게 작거나 큰 면적을 갖고 있다. 따라서, 지표수-지하수 연계 통합 관리에 적합한 단위 유역은 기존 KRF 집수구역을 수정하여 설정하는 것이 필요하다. 이로부터 설정될 개소 당 약 5 ~ 15 ㎢ 면적의 단위 유역은 지류의 구성과 관정의 위치를 고려할 때 지방자치단체의 수자원 관리의 기본 단위가 될 수 있으며, 물수요-공급 평가, 수문 계측 시스템의 배치, 지하수 허가 총량 기준, 오염의 평가, 정책의 우선 순위 결정 등 실질적인 수자원 통합관리의 기본 수단으로 활용 가능할 것이다.

In recent decades, the dry stream phenomena of small and medium sized rivers have been attracting much attention as an important social problem. To prevent dry stream phenomena, it is necessary to build an infrastructure that manages rivers. To accurately determine the progress of dry stream phenomena, it is necessary to continuously measure the discharge and other hydrological factors for small and medium sized rivers. However, until now, the flow data for small and medium rivers in Korea has been insufficient. To overcome the lack of supporting data for supporting rational decision-making in policy and project implementation, a short- and long-term hydrological model was developed that takes into consideration hydrological changes such as the increase of the impervious area due to urban development and groundwater pumping, the construction of a large-scale sewage treatment plant, the maintenance of stream-oriented rivers, etc. In the developed model, the distributed grid is represented by three layers: Surface flow, interflow, and groundwater flow. The surface flow and intermediate flow flowed along the flow direction, and the groundwater flow was calculated by a two-dimensional groundwater analysis model such that the outflow occurred in all directions without a specific flow direction. The effects of land use and cover on evapotranspiration and infiltration and the effects of multiple landscapes can be simulated in the developed model.

Attempts were made to increase an efficiency of soil contamination investigation systems (SCISs) including Soil Network and Special Soil Contamination Management Facility Sites in Korea. In order to increase low efficiencies resulting from inappropriate SCISs, possible policy suggestions are driven based on the results from problem findings of Korean policy and comparisons of policies on industrialized countries including United States, United Kingdom, Germany, the Netherlands and Japan. First, functions of Soil Environment Conservation Act (SECA) on liability should be updated and reinforced to initiate a soil contamination investigation process for stakeholders including an owner(s) or a responsible party(ies) of the potentially soil contamination sites positively. Second, appropriate SCISs should be emerged for implementing the Soil Network and Special Soil Contamination Management Facility Sites properly. Stakeholders for the potentially contaminated sites should easily access and raise the soil contamination issues, and soil contamination investigation implemented by liable and profit environment (consulting) companies should be encouraged. Third, the soil contamination reporting system of SECA needs to change legally responsible. Further more, public announcement system showing soil quality of a site which exceeds a certain scale would be considerable. Fourth, liable environment (consulting) companies should legally execute Soil Environment Assessment of SECA.

In the field of soil and groundwater remediation, sustainability was merged into remediation process and green remediation was initiated within the concept of sustainable development. Green remediation was defined and has been already applied to the remediation fields in U.S. In the case of Europe, green remediation has been evaluated for the application of green technology in the remediation industry and they especially defined sustainable remediation following idea of sustainable development. Although green and sustainable remediation is global trends, there are only a few cases about application of green remediation in South Korea. It is needed to develop soil and groundwater remediation technology towards green remediation, considering "Green Growth" as policy direction in South Korea.

About 90% of groundwater wells in Jeju Island are reported to be under the threat of contamination by infiltration of the surface pollutants. Most of those wells have improperly grouted annulus which is an empty space between the well and the inner casing. As a remedy to this problem, some of the wells were re-grouted by filling the annulus with cement without lifting an inner casing. In order to evaluate whether this method is appropriate for the geological structure of Jeju Island, two wells (W1 and W2) were selected and this method was applied. The water holding capacity did not decrease while the nitrate levels decreased from 16.8 and 20.2 to 6.8 and 13.8 mg/L in W1 and W2, respectively. The higher nitrate level in W2 is deemed to be influenced by the livestock farms located in the upper area of the well. In addition, transmissivity of the vedose zone was higher in W2 than W1, potentially facilitating the transport of nitrate to the groundwater. The overall result of this study suggests re-grouting of wells for the purpose of protecting water quality of goundwater should take into account geological structure of vadose zone as well as appropriate source control of the contaminants.
