도시배수시스템에서는 초기유출수(first flush)에 의한 하천오염이 심각한 문제로 대두되고 있다. 이는 강우발생시 강우에 의해 도시지역의 비점오염원들에 의해서 오염물이 하수관거로 유입되고 한정된 하수처리장의 용량으로는 제대로 처리하지 못하는 월류수에 의해 하천의 수질이 악화되기 때문이다. 대상유역으로 선정한 경기도 구리시 돌다리분구는 합류식 관거로 이루어져 있어 우기시 강우에 의한 월류가 발생할 확률이 높다. 월류에 의해 인근 왕숙천의 수질오염이 가중될 우려가 있어 적절한 처리시설의 설치가 필요하였다. 기존의 CSOs 설계에서는 강우의 최대치를 이용하여 설계가 연구되었다. 그러나, 강우의 최대치를 이용한 설계는 시설의 과다계획으로 이어져 많은 예산낭비를 초래할 수 있으며, 처리시설의 적정규모를 산정하지 못한다. 본 연구에서는 강우특성을 분석하여 매개변수들을 산정하고 이에 따른 유출분석을 실시하였다. 또한 위험도를 고려한 강우-유출분석을 이용하여 유출량을 계산하였다. 유출량을 포함한 유출특성에 의해 월류특성을 분석하였다. 왕숙천 BOD 오염농도를 기준으로 설계하기 위해 하수처리장 용량별 처리시설 요구효율을 산정하였으며 현재 하수처리장의 하수처리를 고려하여 간이 CSOs 처리시설의 효율을 71.48%로 하여 설계하였다.

Load Duration Curve(LDC) is a useful tool for analyzing water quality characteristics under various stream flow conditions. This study investigated the methods to identify impaired waterbodies in the assessment of water quality goal attainment by using LDC for the management of Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs). Three methods were proposed. Non-typical regime exclusion method is a method to exclude water quality observations in the non-typical extreme flow conditions in order to minimize the influence of non-ordinary water quality. Flow regime weighted average method is a method to calculate weighted mean water quality instead of arithmetic mean in order to consider water characteristics properly on stream flow regime in addition to the effect of Non-typical regime exclusion method. Load exceeded interval comparison method is a method to compare the intervals between the attained and non-attained load duration periods on the LDC. The assessment of water quality goal attainment can be performed more reasonably and precisely considering water quality variations on stream flow conditions by applying these proposed methods.

It is important to analyze the status of water quality with relation to the stream flow to attain water quality goal more effectively in the unit watersheds for the management of Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs). This study developed a flow duration-water quality distribution graph to figure out water quality appearances on the flow variation and analyzed contributions of water quality observations to the impaired water bodies quantitatively by hydrologic conditions. Factors relating to water quality variation can be analyzed more precisely and assessed on the base of quantified contributions. It is considered that this approach could be utilized to establish a more effective plan for the water quality improvement including the prioritization of pollution reduction options.

Total phosphorus was set as a target indicator to prevent eutrophication and algae growth, etc., in three major rivers (Nakdong River, Geum River and Yeongsang/Seomjin River) for the second phase (2011 ~ 2015) in total maximum daily loads (TMDLs) system. However, total phosphorus management was restrictively introduced, i.e., upstream of the Lake Daechung, in the Geum River watershed. Total phosphorus concentration and trophic levels in downstream of the Lake Daechung (include Mangyeong and Dongjin rivers) were increased more than upstream. Therefore, it is necessary to expand total phosphorus management in all watersheds of the Geum River. If total phosphorus was managed in all area of the Geum River watershed, it is possible to decrease total phosphorus concentration and trophic levels, and solve the unbalanced water quality between up and downstream of the Lake Daechung.

The quantity of a discharge load can change with changes in rainfall in the area with a combined sewer system (CSS). To evaluate the implementation appropriately in the management of total maximum daily loads (TMDLs), the effects of rainfall changes should be considered in the estimation of the discharge load. The rainfall condition for the estimation of the discharge load in a certain year should be standardized to the same rainfall condition as that of the reference year. However, the calculation process is very complicated with its potential limitations. This study investigated and developed relatively simple methods for estimating the discharge load. Load conversion method (LCM) is designed to convert the discharge load under the current rainfall condition into that of the reference rainfall conditions. Simple rainfall data method (SRDM) is to simplify the estimation process of the discharge load by the simple conversion of rainfall data. These methods were applied to calculate the discharge load and examine the estimation results. From the results of this study the application of these methods may be useful for estimating the discharge load in the TMDL process.

지속적인 개발과 도시화로 인하여 하천으로 유입되는 비점오염원의 비율 역시 점차 증가하는 추세이며 비점오염원이 수질악화에 미치는 영향은 점점 더 커지고 있다. 하천의 수질오염을 발생시키는 비점오염원 해결방안을 모색하고 있지만 도시화에 따른 수문현상변동 및 자연현상과 관련된 문제라 연구에 어려움이 많다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 총량원단위법과 달리 유역의강우 및 도시화 특성과 처리장 운영자료를 활용하여 차별화된 비점오염원 산정 방법을 제시하였다. 하수처리장의 배수구역 내 관거시스템을 합류식으로 가정하여 강우 시 하수처리장의 배수구역별 비점 발생형태는 하수처리장 강우유 입량, 하수처리장 우회유량(bypass) 및 하천토구의 CSO의 3가지로 크게 구분하여 적용함으로써 오염부하량을 산정함으로써 오염총량 단위유역 및 하수처리구역의 관리를 위한 비교자료로 활용 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

The key point in establishing water quality management measures is how to decide the load reduction for pollution sources. This study was performed to compare reduction methods for BOD loadings to achieve water quality standards at the end of the Yeongsan river. The target year is 2006 and 2011 and reduction methods are uniform treatment and treatment by influence rate. Using QUAL2E model, the study was performed under the conditions of establishing and non-establishing the publicly owned treatment works(POTWs). Uniform treatment which allocate the same reduction rate to pollution sources showed that all streams into the river should be applied for the reduction. However, treatment by influence rate which allocate the reduction rate by the order of influence rate showed that achieving target quality might be possible with a few streams for the reduction. But total amount of load reduction of streams was not significantly different from two methods.

In Total Water Pollutant Load Management System of Korea, unit load approach based on land register data is currently used for the estimation of non-point pollutant load. However, a problem raised that land register data could not always reflect the actual land surface coverages which determine runoff characteristics of non-point pollution sources. As a way to overcome this, we tried to establish quantitative relationships between the aerial images (0.4m resolution) which reflect actual land surface coverages and the land registration maps according to the 19 major designated land-use categories in Kyeongan watershed. Analyses showed different relationships according to the land-use categories. Only a few land-use categories including forestry, road and river showed essentially identical and some categories such as orchard, parking lot and sport utility site showed no relationships at all between image data and land register data. Except for the two cases, all the other categories showed statistically significant linear relationships between image data and land register data. The analyses indicate that using high resolution aerial maps is a better way to estimate non-point pollutant load. If the aerial maps are not available, application of the linear relationships as conversion factors of land register data to image data could be an possible option to estimate non-point pollutant loads for the specific land-use categories in Kyeongan watershed.

Total Pollution Load Control (TPLC) calculates and manages the allowable pollutant load that is discharged from the watershed, which can meet the water quality target. Delivery Ratio (DR) is generally used for predicting the variation of pollutant mass balance between the pollutants discharged from the watershed and a certain point in the stream, and it is very important for estimation of accurate allowable pollutant load. The concept of DR in TPLC is different from prevalent DR, because DR in TPLC includes both the discharge of pollutants from the watershed and the delivery mechanism. Therefore, DR in TPLC should be estimated by using a proper and unified methodology. The appropriate method and equation for estimation of DR in TPLC was developed through the review of various methodologies, and the applicability of the equation was evaluated in a study area (Geumho A). Determination coefficients (R²) of regression were shown to be relatively high (BOD 0.71~0.87, T-N 0.86~0.90, T-P 0.62~0.69). Applicability of the developed methodology and equations was evaluated as appropriate for TPLC, and it is suggested.
