A long-term sewer rehabilitation project consuming an enormous budget needs to be conducted systematically using an optimization skill. The optimal budgeting and ordering of priority for sewer rehabilitation projects are very important with respect to the effectiveness of investment. In this study, the sewer rehabilitation optimization model using fast-messy genetic algorithm is developed to suggest a schedule for optimal sewer rehabilitation in a subcatchment area by modifying the existing GOOSER$^{(R)}$ model having been developed using simple genetic algorithm. The sewer rehabilitation optimization model using fast-messy genetic algorithm can improve the speed converging to the optimal solution relative to GOOSER$^{(R)}$, suggesting that it is more advantageous to the sewer rehabilitation in a larger-scale subcatchment area than GOOSER.

The Vocational Rehabilitation Center Expansion Project, with a budget of 15.3 billion KRW, transformed an existing facility into a more eco-friendly, user-friendly, and publicly accessible space. The project involved expanding the building from a basement and two above-ground floors to a basement and six above-ground floors, addressing the shortage of facilities for people with disabilities while promoting eco-friendliness. Design concepts included eco-friendly MASS, improvements to the existing building, social adaptability, and user-centric evacuation measures. Value Engineering (VE) and technical reviews led to proposals for cost reduction and functionality enhancement. Completed in September 2019, the project, renamed "Se-um Center," now hosts seven disability welfare facilities, serving as a vital infrastructure improving the lives of individuals with disabilities in the local community.

The objective of this study is to develop evaluation indices which can be applied to analyze rational rehabilitation-policy directions of redundant farmlands. To achieve this objective, the main tasks of this research are 1) categorizing the redundant farmlands rehabilitation types 2) developing the evaluation indices of redundant farmlands rehabilitation 3) determining the weights of each index. The redundant farmlands rehabilitation types were classified into agricultural rehabilitation type, non-agricultural rehabilitation type and hybrid type which are called by agricultural income model, rural environment improvement model and hybrid model as development project name, respectively. The 5 parts and 21 indices for evaluation of redundant farmlands rehabilitation directions were extracted by case studies and experts brainstorming. The weights of each index were determined by Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). The developed evaluation indices were applied to study areas located on Yanghwa district of Gongju-city and Aewol district of Jeju-city. From the results of this study, it was ascertained that the evaluation indices developed in this study would help the decision-makers in the planning process of redundant farmlands rehabilitation directions.

This study was performed in order to contributing the conflict factors which largely affects the efficient promotion of Urban Rehabilitation Project. then, it aims to induce conflict factors which affect the business period and business expense through PLS Regression Analysis. The data was build up from union members, tenants and merchants who are living in the completed urban rehabilitation area. In the case of 'Business period', it shows the priority on conflict factors in this order such as the 'Approval and Authorization for union establishment', 'Approval and Plan for business enforcement' and 'Interruption of interest group related to service business such as business delay'. In addition, In the case of 'Business expenses', it shows the priority on conflict factors in this order such as the 'Approval and Authorization for union establishment', 'Selling contract', 'Report of Demolition and Loss' and 'Plan and Authorization of Management disposition'.

This study analyzes the economic effect of rehabilitation and upgrading of reservoirs as a prevented method against natural disasters under recent abnormal weather conditions and dam-break. For the analysis, we divide the purpose of rehabilitation and upgrading of reservoirs into the stable supply of rural water under uncertain weather conditions and the prevention of collapse due to the aging of the reservoir. We measure the economic effect of rehabilitation and upgrading of reservoirs by estimating the resident's willingness-to-pay for the project through Contingent Valuation Method(CVM). The result shows that distributions of willingness-to-pay to prevent natural disasters and dam-break are similar to each other. About 66% of the residents in sample regions are willing to pay for the project. The resident's willingness-to-pay to protect natural disasters and dam-break are 32,250 to 46,147 won and 28,427 to 47,308 won respectively on average for all sample regions. The comparison of willingness-to-pay by type of regions shows that paddy field areas are the highest followed by facility cultivation areas and urban areas. In addition, total expected value of the projects calculated based on the resident's willingness-to-pay for paddy field areas and facility cultivation areas are much larger than actual project costs. This implies that rural residents are fully aware of the importance of the project to prevent natural disasters and dam-break and are willing to pay for additional costs if needed.

This study is purposed to suggest the method for improving the effect of the mental health project by checking the influence of the "value and function of the mentally disabled" to the "satisfaction to current life of the mentally disabled" for the users of the daytime mental rehabilitation service in the local community, and the difference in the"satisfaction to the current life of the mentally disabled" and "value and function of the mentally disabled" depending on the participation into the mental rehabilitation program. With regard to the "satisfaction to the current life of the mentally disabled", the result showed that the "relation between the current user members" and "consideration about himself in usual time" were the positive influential factors out of the measuring factors for the "value and function of the mentally disabled." In addition, with regard to the "satisfaction to the current life of the mentally disabled", in case of participating to the "vocational rehabilitation program" out of the mental rehabilitation programs, the general "personal value and function which are felt by the mentally disabled" has higher significant difference in case of participating into the "social technology program", "daily life program", "vocational rehabilitation program", "leisure activity program" out of the mental rehabilitation programs than non participating.
