해양산업시설의 위험유해물질 배출이 미치는 사회영향을 평가하고, 기술근거배출허용기준 설정과정에서 요구되는 사회영향평가 항목 및 방법적용에 대한 시사점을 도출하였다. 연구범위는 인천광역시에 있는 해양산업시설을 대상으로 하였다. 분석결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 기업 및 산업에 대한 영향은 '큰' 것으로 평가되었지만, 대기업은 영업이익손실과 도산가능성, 그리고 고용손실의 영향이 적었고, 소기업과 중기업은 영향이 큰 것으로 나타났다. 둘째, 지역사회 및 경제에 대한 영향은 '적은' 것으로 평가되었으나, 직접적으로 인과관계를 지니는 어업생산자나 지역관광종사자, 그리고 해당 지역은 그 영향이 집중되어 크게 나타날 수 있기 때문에 이에 대한 세심한 정책적 개입이 필요한 것으로 판단된다. 셋째, 기술근거배출허용기준의 설정방법에서 사회적 손실비용 및 사회적 편익산정 항목과 방법이 유용하게 적용될 수 있는 것으로 판단된다.

해저열수광상은 황화물 미네랄이 해저의 열수작용을 통해 형성된 광상을 의미하며 특히, 구리, 납, 아연, 금, 은 등의 금속이 다량 포함되어 있다. 현재 해저열수광상 개발분야의 선두주자는 노틸러스사이다. 노틸러스사는 파푸아뉴기니, 피지, 통가, 솔로몬제도, 뉴질랜드 등 남서태평양 도서국에 약 37만 $km^2$에 달하는 탐사권을 보유 또는 신청해 놓은 상태이다. 넵튠사 역시 뉴질랜드, 파푸아뉴기니, 마이크로네시아에서 27만 $km^2$가 넘는 면적의 탐사권을 취득하였다. 이들 두 광업회사는 2010년 세계 최초로 해저열수광상의 상업생산을 목표로 적극적인 활동을 전개하고 있다. 주변국가인 중국과 일본은 전략광물의 안정적 공급을 위하여 해저열수광상 탐사활동을 적극적으로 수행하고 있는 실정이다. 중국의 경우 중국대양협회를 통해 전 지구 대양을 대상으로 심해저자원개발을 위한 국가연구개발사업을 수행하고 있다. 일본의 경우 자국의 EEZ를 중심으로 해저열수광상 조사사업을 수행하고 있다. 이러한 국제적인 해저열수광상 개발동향을 고려하여 우리나라의 해저열수광상 개발을 위한 전략방향을 소관부처의 일원화와 법제도 정비, 사업추진주체 결정, 정부의 적극적 예산지원, 해저열수광상 개발을 위한 중장기 계획수립 등의 측면에서 제안하였다.

This study aimed to analyze the effect of total allowable catches (TACs) on the target species. First to effects analyse of TACs, the 8 TAC target species and 75 non-target species were selected for which catch data were available before and after the introduction of the TACs. The 8 target species were simply compared to catch changes before and after TACs. Through the comparison, it was confirmed how the catches of target fishes have changed after the implementation of the TACs. Secondly, the Difference In Differences(DID) analysis was conducted to confirm the effects of the TACs on the catches of the target fishes using the catch data of 8 TAC target species and 75 non-TAC species. Finally, to overcome the limitations of the DID analysis, the random effects model was estimated to confirm the effects of the TACs on the catch of the TAC target species. Overall, this study confirmed that the TACs affects catches of target species, not only through simple comparisons of catches before and after the introduction of the TACs but also through econometric analysis.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate economic feasibility of manganese nodules in Korea area (Clarion-Clipperton Fracture Zone). We assumed that the production scale of manganese nodules were 3.0MT or 1.5MT and analyzed that the capital cost and operating cost were estimated in the four sectors, exploration, mining, transportation and metallurgical process. The capital cost and operating cost evaluation reflects the latest technical practices. First, for analyzing economic feasibility, the scenario suggests that the production of 4 metals can be made for 25 years. Assuming the discount rate at 8.0%, equity capital at 50% and tax at 27%. When manganese nodule were mininged 3.0 MT, economic feasibility analyses showed that IRR was 12.8 and pay-back period was 9.2 years, and when manganese nodules were mininged 1.5 MT, economic feasibility analyses showed that IRR was 4.0 and pay-back period was 11.8 years. This study indicated there is economic validity of at the product of manganese nodules 3.0 MT. In addition, we carried out a sensitivity analysis at the change of cobalt price on mining 1.5 MT. The result of sensitivity analysis clearly showed that economic validity is high at increasing of cobalt price 50% up.

Recently, coastal erosion has become an important issue in relation to keeping territorial integrity of a nation as well as protecting the coastal marine ecosystem. This study examines some apprehensions about the effectiveness of the existing legal system concerning prevention of coastal erosion. After examining several case studies in Scotland, the USA, and the Netherlands, this study proposes appropriate revisional legal measures that can be applied in Korea: first, the coastal management act should be revised for stronger, enforceable and practical legal grounds emphasizing minimal coastal erosion; second, the proposed "Comprehensive Coastal Erosion Prevention Plan" should be established and implemented in four steps such as characterization of issues through surveys of stakeholders and demand assessment, plan establishment, execution, and maintenance and management; third, there is a demand to establish and implement a legal framework to support monitoring activities which provide important data and information to prevent coastal erosion; fourth, the chronic region of damage is designated as the "Vulnerable Area" to be protected and managed accordingly; fifth, the "Coastal Coordination council" is established and operated for developing an integrated coastal management policy and visions for sustainable coastal zone, as well as coordinating and intervention of any activities which may cause coastal erosion.

A reference to natural prolongation appeared for the first time in the North Sea Judgement. Although it was not suggested that the concept of natural prolongation would automatically allow for the fixing of a continental shelf boundary, that concept encouraged States to request international tribunals to determine continental shelf boundaries on the basis of the geological and geomorphological features of the seabed. In the Libya v. Malta Case, however, the rejection of geological and geomorphological factors was total. Especially, Natural prolongation was the then checkmated as a relevant fact in delimitation between coasts situated less than 400 nm. apart. There can be no doubt that, in several disputed cases, prominent geomorphological variations are simply ignored ; nevertheless, there are also a few agreements where geological and geomorphological characteristics come into play and, to a certain extent, affect maritime boundaries. Physical characteristics of sea-bed are generally given serious consideration in the boundary delimitation such as the final negotiated boundary of the Australia-Indonesia Continental Shelf boundary Agreement(Timor and Arafura seas) which follows the continental slope bordering the Timor Trench.

Purpose - As the severity of air pollution caused by the shipping industry is becoming evident, port authorities have started making efforts to reduce air pollutants. Considering the limitations of the currently implemented emission-control area (ECA) and vessel-speed reduction program (VSRP), which are narrow in the designation range and navigation behavior of ships, this study proposes an emission-control route (ECR) that can complement the aforementioned two environmental policies. Design/methodology - This study was conducted on Korea-China trade service routes (ports of call) of regular liners. This study employed vessel-specific data, which is from an automatic identification system (AIS), for 1,728 maritime transportations performed by 387 container vessels during one year (July 1, 2021, to June 30, 2022). Performing a scenario analysis, this study analyzed the effectiveness of reduced air-pollutant emissions. Findings - This study found that the implementation of ECRs could increase average voyage time by 12.38%-25.28% but reduced air-pollutant emissions by 29.02%-43.54%. Additionally, the increase in average voyage times reduces the anchorage time of ships outside ports, providing an incentive for ship operators to voluntarily participate in compliance with regulations, thereby contributing to the establishment of a virtuous cycle of air-environmental policies related to ships. Originality/value - This study aims to verify the policy effectiveness by designing an ECR scope for liner trade routes between Korea and China. Therefore, originality and the value of this study includes conceptualizing the ECR system, analyzing its environmental performance, and exploring new policies that can be implemented while complementing existing policies.
