The interest in LID facilities is increasing worldwide for recovery of natural water cycle system to destroy by urbanization. However, problems are raised when installation of LID because comprehensive analysis about design capacity adequacy of LID facilities was not conducted completely. In this research, removal efficiency and design volume adequacy of LID facilities were analyzed based on rainfall monitoring data in four LID facilities(Vegetated Swale, Vegetative Filter Strip, Bio-Retention and Permeable Pavement). As a result, group of LID facility designed on WQV was shown higher flow(37%) and pollutants(TSS, BOD, TN and TP) removal efficiencies(20 ~ 37%) than group of LID facility designed on WQF. SA/CA graph was drawn for evaluation of design volume adequacy based on rainfall monitoring data. In this SA/CA graph, coefficient of determination show over 0.5 in all parameter, especially, Flow and TP were show over 0.95. And, 'SA/CA & L/CA' graph considering difference of structure mechanism in LID facility suggested in this research was confirmed that improved coefficient of determination in flow, TSS and TP than SA/CA graph. According to this research results, feasibility of applying 'SA/CA & L/CA' graph for evaluation of design volume adequacy in LID facility, and it is necessary to follow up research for generalization and normalization.

Recently, since impervious areas have increased due to urban development, the water cycle system of urban watersheds has been destructed. Hence, researches on LID (Low Impact Development) technique have been conducted to solve such problems environmentally. In order to verify suitability with the scale and arrangement of LID technique, the runoff reduction effect of the LID technique should be analyzed per small watershed unit. In this study, pre-post difference of the runoff by applying the LID was estimated using the rational method and rainwater treatment capacity equation. As a result, the runoff before and after the application of LID were estimated as 22,533.5 ㎥ and 14,992.1 ㎥, respectively. In addition, rainfall-runoff simulations were carried out using SWMM to evaluate the efficiency of the LID technique. The SWMM simulation results showed that the runoff before and after the application of LID were 21,174 ㎥ and 15,664 ㎥, respectively. Based on the results of the two methods, the scale and arrangement of the LID technique were revised in order to maximize the effect of the water cycle improvement. Rainfall-runoff simulations were carried out using the SWMM with the revised LID techniques. As a result, despite 34.8 % reduction of pervious pavement area, the rate of runoff reduction increased by 2.1 %. These results indicate that designing the scale and arrangement of LID technique, while considering the total amount of inflow entering into each LID techniques, is essential to effectively achieve the goals of runoff reduction in urban development.

SWMM-LID was calibrated with flow monitoring data in LHI to evaluate runoff after LID application. The flow rate in the B basin was estimated to be 0.94 and 6.15 for O/S and $D_v$, respectively. In the A and C basins, the difference between the observed and simulated data was greater than in the B basin. As a result of runoff reduction efficiency by the application of LID facilities, the change of infiltration increased from 34.6 % to 45.8 % in the entire watershed, and the runoff decreased from 58.8 % to 46.3 %. In the runoff reduction of each LID facility, rain garden E showed the highest effect with 99.9 % and bioretention B showed the lowest effect with 27.5 %. In order to evaluate the efficiency of each LID facility, a comparison is made between the pore volume (V) of the LID and the catchment area (A). The runoff showed a runoff reduction effect of about 70 % above the 0.1 volume/area (V/A) value. As a result of examining the runoff reduction with LID facilities by the LID module of SWMM, a reasonable design is possible by reflecting the appropriate LID volume to drainage area.

우리나라의 경우 비점오염원에 의한 오염부하 기여도가 점차 증가하면서 '06년 관련 법규 개정을 통해 일정 규모 이상의 개발사업에 대해서는 비점오염저감시설 설치를 의무화하였으며, '11년 기준 국내에는 약 6,000여개 이상의 저감시설이 설치되었다. 해당 시설에 대한 모니터링 결과 장치형에 비해 자연형이 처리효율 및 유지관리 측면에서 유리한 것으로 보고되면서 환경부는 개발사업에 대해 저영향개발기법(LID)의 적용을 의무화하는 방안을 추진 중이다. 개발사업에 있어 LID는 토지이용기법을 통해 우수 유출과 오염원 유출을 저감하고자 하는 기법으로, 비용 및 유지관리 측면에서는 유리하나 기존 단위시설 적용기법에 비해 계획적인 요소가 강해 적용 확대 및 의무화가 용이하지 않은 한계가 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 LID 적용 확대와 관련된 문제점을 분석하고 적용 의무화를 위해 필요한 대안을 모색해 보고자 하였다. 이를 위해 해당 기법 자체가 가지는 한계와 제도적인 문제점을 분석하였으며, LID 기법의 확대 적용을 위해 필요한 대안을 제안하였다. 분석 결과, LID 기법은 기존 장치형 시설에 비해 계획기법의 측면이 커 기술개발이 어려울 뿐만 아니라, 저감시설의 적용여부에 대한 검증도 곤란한 것으로 분석되었다. 또한, 처리효율 계량화가 어려워 오염총량제와 연계된 오염부하 삭감효과 인정이 곤란해 확대 적용에 한계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 상기의 분석결과에 근거할 때, LID 기법의 확대 적용은 국내의 제도적 여건 및 LID 기법 자체의 한계를 감안하여 단계적으로 추진되어야 할 것으로 판단되며, 조속한 확대 시행을 위해서는 다음의 방안 마련을 제안한다. 첫째, 적용 여부에 대한 판단이 모호한 단점을 보완하기 위해 적정 적용여부를 심의할 수 있는 인증제도 도입을 제안한다. 이 제도는 친환경건축물인증제도 등 기존 유사 제도에 항목을 추가하는 방법과 별도의 제도를 신설하는 방법이 가능할 것이다. 둘째, 처리효율 정량화를 위해 기존 농도 위주의 처리효율 개념을 벗어나 유량 개념의 처리효율 산정이 필요하다. 즉, 처리용량 범위내에서 외부에 유출없이 우수저류 및 침투가 가능한 경우 전량 처리되는 것으로 간주하는 방식이다. 연구결과로 제안한 LID 기법 적용에 대한 인증제도 마련과 유량개념의 처리효율 산정방안이 도입된다면, 보다 조속한 시일내 LID 기법의 확대 적용이 가능할 것이다.

This study suggests direction of new ordinance establishment for the future national application of Low Impact Development(LID) by analyzing current LID-related regulations of local governments, substantial agents to install and maintain a facility, through qualitative and quantitative methodologies. Four key words related to LID were derived from advisory conference and then ninety nine ordinances as the LID-related regulations were extracted to analyze. The study shows that rainwater-related ordinance passed in the middle of 2000s are being merely converted to the law on the promotion and support of water reuse. Regulations on water cycle and LID exist only in three cities nationwide(Seoul City, Suwon City and Namangju City). Interview with administrators of three cities to have LID-related regulations revealed following results. First, both rainwater and water reuse related regulations have not considered regional characteristics such as rainfall intensity, effects of impervious and merely followed guidelines by Ministry of Government Administration and Home Affairs. Second, existing ordinance is confined to specific facilities and thus cannot include the concept of LID which covers land and space utilization. Therefore, for proper application of LID, this study proposes issue of ordinance that resembles Seoul City ordinance and a new guideline that can reflect regional characteristics such as rainfall and location.

Low impact development (LID) facilities are established for the purpose of restoring the natural hydrologic cycle as well as the removal of pollutants from stormwater runoff. Improved efficiency of LID facilities can be obtained through the optimized interaction of their major components (i.e., plant, soil, filter media, microorganisms, etc.). Therefore, this study was performed to evaluate the performances of LID facilities in terms of runoff and pollutant reduction and also to provide an optimal maintenance method. The monitoring was conducted on four LID technologies (e.g., bioretention, small wetlands, rain garden and tree box filter). The optimal SA/CA (facility surface area / catchment area) ratio for runoff reduction greater than 40% is determined to be 1 - 5%. Since runoff reduction affects the pollutant removal efficiency in LID facilities, SA/CA ratio is derived as an important factor in designing LID facilities. The LID facilities that are found to be effective in reducing stormwater runoff are in the following order: rain garden > tree box filter > bioretention> small wetland. Meanwhile, in terms of removal of particulate matter (TSS), the effectiveness of the facilities are in the following order: rain garden > tree box filter > small wetland > bioretention; rain gardens > tree box filter > bioretention > small wetland were determined for the removal of organic matter (COD, TOC), nutrients (TN, TP) and heavy metals (Cu, Pb, Cd, Zn). These results can be used as an important material for the design of LID facilities in runoff volume and pollutant reduction.

급속한 산업화와 도시화로 인하여, 투수지역은 감소함으로써, 개발전과 다른 지표, 지표하 유출이 나타난다. 이에 대한 대안으로 최근 저영향개발 (LID)이 수문학적 및 환경, 생태적 개선으로 대안으로 대두 되고 있다. 이에 많은 연구자들이 EPA SWMM 모델의 이용하여 LID 설치 전, LID를 모의하였으나, 불포화토양 및 토양 내의 matric head에 대한 고려가 없어 정확한 LID 모의가 힘든 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서 상세한 토양 모의가 가능 HYDRUS를 이용하여, SWMM-HYDRUS 모델을 개발하였다. EPA SWMM 모델의 경우, 가장 상단의 layer에서 green ampt equation을 이용하여 침투량을 계산 후, 다음 layer에서 Darcy eqation을 이용하여 토양 물이동을 계산되어진다. 하지만 기존의 SWMM모델의 경우, 불포화토양내의 물 흐름에 대한 고려와 Matric head와 Pond depth에 대한 고려가 없어, LID 모의 시 한계점이 나타났다. 이에 본 연구에서는 이러한 한계점을 개선하기 위하여, 기존의 EPA SWMM의 LID 모듈을 Van Genuchten's equaton과 Richard Equation을 이용하여 정확한 토양 물 흐름을 계산하는 HYDRUS을 SWMM 모델에 결합하여, 더욱 정확한 LID 모의를 실시하였다. 개선된 SWMM-HYDRUS 모델의 모의 결과, 기존의 SWMM에서 한계점을 보여주는 Metric head를 고려하여 불포화 침투가 이루어지며, 또한 포화 후 LID 위에 존재하는 Pond depth를 고려해주는 결과가 나타났다. 향후 개발된 SWMM-HYDRUS모델를 이용하여 LID를 검증 시 기존의 모델보다 정확한 모의가 가능하다.

To minimize the impact of urbanization, accurate performance evaluation of Low Impact Development (LID) facilities is needed. In Korea, the method designed to evaluate large-scale non-point pollution reduction facilities is being applied to LID facilities. However, it has been pointed out that this method is not suitable for evaluating the performance of relatively small-scale installed LID facilities. In this study, a new design formula was proposed based on the ratio of LID facility area and contributing drainage area, for estimating the Stormwater Interception Ratio (SIR) for LID facilities. The SIR was estimated for bio-retentions, infiltration trenches and vegetative swales, which are typical LID facilities, under various conditions through long-term stormwater simulation using the LID module of EPA SWMM. Based on the results of these numerical experiments, the new SIR formula for each LID facility was derived. The sensitivity of the proposed SIR formula to local rainfall properties and design variables is analysed. In addition, the SIR formula was compared with the existing design formula, the Rainfall Interception Ratio (RIR).

The guideline of selection of Integrated Management Practices (IMPs), such as wood, green roof, lawn, and porous pavement, for Low Impact Development (LID) design was proposed by ranking the reduction rate of surface runoff using LIDMOD1.0. Based on the guideline, LID was designed with several scenarios at two apartment complexes located at Songpa-gu, Seoul, Korea, and the effect of LID on surface runoff was evaluated during last 10 years. The effect of runoff reduction of IMP by land use change was highly dependent on the kind of hydrologic soil group. The wood planting is the best IMPs for reduction of surfac runoff for all hydrologic soil groups. Lawn planting is an excellent IMP for hydrologic soil group A, but reduction rate is low where soil doesn't effectively drains precipitation. The green roof shows constant reduction rate of surface runoff because it is not influenced by hydrologic soil group. Compared to the rate of other IMPs, the green roof is less effect the surface runoff reduction for hydrologic soil group A and is more effect for hydrologic soil group C and D followed to planing wood. The porous pavement for the impervious area is IMPs which is last selected for LID design because of the lowest reduction rate for all hydrologic soil group. As a result of LID application at study areas, we could conclude that the first step of the strategy of LID design at apartment complex is precuring pervious land as many area as possible, second step is selecting the kind of plant as more interception and evapotranspiration as possible, last step is replacing impervious land with porous pavement.

경안천은 팔당호로 직접 유입되는 하천 중 유입량 대비 오염도가 매우 높아 상수원보호를 위한 특별관리가 요구되는 지역이다. 또한 경안천 유역은 수도권과 인접하고 있어, 도시화에 의해 토지이용이 지속적으로 변화되고 있다. 이러한 토지이용의 변화는 불투수면적을 증가시켜 강우시 유출 및 수질오염 발생량을 증가시킨다. 그러므로 불투수면적 증가에 따른 영향을 줄이기 위해서는 친환경 도시개발에 적용하고 있는 LID기법을 도입하여, 개발지역의 불투수면적 발생을 최소화하여야 하며 오염원 발생을 사전에 제어해야 한다. 그러나 도시개발시 무분별한 LID기법 도입은 정부의 막대한 예산 및 인력낭비를 초래하므로 현장적용 전 모델링을 통해 LID기법의 기대효과 및 비용을 산출하여야 하며, 도시 계획 수립시 가장 효과적인 LID기법을 제시하여야 한다. 따라서 효과적인 LID기법을 제시하기 위해서는 LID기법 평가가 가능한 SWMM모형을 이용해야 한다. 하지만 경안천 유역과 같이 유역 내 도시 와 비도시지역이 혼재되어 있는 우리나라의 대부분의 유역은 SWMM모형만으로는 유역의 강우-유출 및 수질 평가가 불가능하기 때문에, 유역 내 도시와 비도시지역의 유출 및 수질관리 평가가 가능한 SWAT-SWMM 연계모델을 이용하여 유출량 및 수질관리 효과를 분석해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 SWAT-SWMM 연계모델을 이용하여 LID기법 별 시나리오를 구축하였고, 시나리오별 유출량 및 수질오염 발생량을 모의하여 분석하였다. 분석결과 상당량의 유출량 저감 및 수질개선 효과가 나타났다. 또한 SWAT-SWMM 연계모델을 이용하여 모의된 수질자료는 환경부에서 제시하고 있는 단위유역 대표지점 수질환경기준 달성의 객관적인 평가를 가능하게 한다. 향후 LID를 적용한 SWAT-SWMM 연계모델을 이용하여 정부에서 규제하는 개발제한구역이 포함된 유역에서의 도시개발시 수질환경기준에 맞는 친환경적인 개발을 할 수 있을 것이라 기대된다.
