  • This paper attempts to analyze the public's attitudes about the Saemangeum development project and its impact on marine environment with the data from a national survey of 1,000 households obtained by a professional survey firm with face-to-face interviews using two split samples: a sample of 400 households in on-site area (Saemangeum area) and a sample of 600 households in off-site area (the nation except for Saemanguem area). More specifically, ordered probit model is employed to investigating the factors affecting the public attitudes to the Saemanguem development project. The results show that over 70 percentage of respondents in both the samples opposed Saemanguem development project when they considered its economic gain and impacts on marine environment at the same time. Futhermore, over 90 percentage of respondents judged that environmental management of Saemanguem open sea is necessary. Therefore, making appropriate actions are required to manage marine environment of Saemanguem open sea.

  • This study was conducted to find the suitability site for the construction of Saemangeum horticulture complex taking into account cost-effective environmental management by analyzing and comparing meteorological conditions. By overlapping the thematic maps, we extracted the regions that scored 50-59 points as suitable sites for the development project. Of these pre-selected sites, we selected the final candidate region for the protected horticulture by overlapping the sites selected for agricultural and living environment construction. The results of this study will contribute to generating added values by minimizing the environmental management costs for horticulture and landscaping. The operation of a large-scale protected horticulture and landscaping in the Saemangeum Complex will enhance the agricultural competitiveness of our country in the global market.
