Nutrient (i.e., nitrogen and phosphorus) budgets are required under a 'Livestock Excreta Survey'. A nutrient budget is one of the agri-environmental indicators that calculates the difference between the inputs and outputs of the amount of nutrients within a certain boundary and for a certain time period (e.g., 1 year). In this study, a nutrients budget model was developed to effectively determine the surplus of nutrients within a region in Korea. The C# program language was used in order to facilitate the deployment of a graphical user interface (GUI) and to enhance compatibility. Also, the model was developed on Windows OS, which is the commonly used operating system in Korea. The model was based on the OECD/Eurostat nutrient budget method, and it was modified to consider manure composting procedures as well. There are key features of the nutrient budget model, including directly use of the original data sets from various input and output sources, and a collectively exchange of the address in different formats. The model can quickly show the results of various spatial and temporal resolutions with the same data, as well as perform a sensitivity analysis with coefficients and easily compareresults using tables and graphs. Further, it would be necessary to study the extension of the scope of utilization, such as the application of various nutrient budget methods. It would also be helpful to investigate both pre and postprocessing information such as linking input data through online systems.

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.

The purpose of this study is to predict the spatio-temporal changes in land uses and to evaluate land-based pollutant loads in the future under Total Water Pollution Load Management System using CLUE-S model. For these ends, sensitive parameters of conversion elasticities in CLUE-S model were calibrated and these calibrated parameters of conversion elasticities, level II land cover map of year 2009, and 7 driving factors of land use changes were used in predicting future land uses in 2002 with two scenarios(Scenario 1: non area restriction, Scenario 2: area restriction). This projected land use map of 2020 was used to estimate land-based pollutant loads. It was expected that urban areas will increase in 2020 from both scenarios 1 and 2. In Scenario 1, urban areas are expected to increase within greenbelt areas and deforest would be expected. Under Scenario 2, these phenomena were not expected. Also the results of estimation of BOD and TP pollutant loads, the BOD difference between scenarios 1 and 2 was 719 kg/day in urban areas and TP difference was 17.60 kg/day in urban areas. As shown in this study, it was found that the CLUE-S model can be useful in future pollutant load estimations because of its capability of projecting future land uses considering various socio-economic driving factors and area-restriction factors, compared with conventionally used land use prediction model.

기타 수계 중 삽교천 유역에 새롭게 수립된 오염총량관리제도의 시행에 따른 효과를 정량화하기 위해 2015년을 기준으로 유역유출모형인 HSPF 모형을 구축한 후, 최종 목표연도인 2030년의 부하량을 입력하여 각 단위유역 말단에 설정된 목표수질 달성여부를 평가하였으며, 미시행지역인 무한천과 삽교천 유역을 포함하여 유량구간별 수질(BOD, T-P)을 예측하였다. 보정 및 검증이 완료된 모형에 2030년의 부하량을 입력하여 재구동한 후, 모의결과로부터 부하지속곡선을 작성함으로써 기준년도 부하량을 입력하여 구동한 모의 수질과 목표연도 부하량을 입력하여 모의한 예측 수질을 유량구간별로 도식화한 결과, 평수량 구간(40~60%)에서 3개의 단위유역 모두 BOD 목표수질에 근접하게 모의되었으며, 목표수질 달성율도 높게 산정되었다. T-P의 경우, 천안A 46%, 곡교A 29%, 남원A 25% 정도의 수질이 개선되는 것으로 예측되었으며, 무한천과 삽교천유역은 중권역 목표기준인 III등급 이내의 수질로 모의되었다. 총량관리 대상 단위유역은 목표수질을 달성하고, 미시행지역은 목표등급을 달성하는 수준의 수질이 삽교호 내로 유입될 것으로 예측됨으로써 총량제 시행에 따른 삽교천 유역의 수질개선효과가 긍정적일 것으로 판단된다.

This study proposes the improvement of the present Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) management system of MOE (Ministry of Environment). The margin of safety (MOS) is calculated by a method using standard error and a method using variability and uncertainty. The allocation of pollutant loads are calculated using three methods, equal load reduction method, equal percent removal method and method using equity standards. This study applied the improved TMDL management system to the Anyangcheon watershed. Since MOS varies from 12% to 44% due to the high variability of measured and simulated data, it must not be ignored in the TMDL. The method using equity standards is the most proper in this application since the others produced unrealistic allocations. Area, runoff, water use quantity, population and budget are considered for equity standards. This study shows that this allocation method can be also applicable for the administrative units as well as the sub-watersheds. Finally, Hydrologic Simulation Program-FORTRAN (HSPF) with the allocated pollutant load was used to confirm whether it satisfy the water quality standard or not. This study will be helpful to improve the MOS and allocation system TMDL in the future.

본 연구에서는 동적모델의 수질오염총량제 적용성을 검토하였으며, 동적모델을 이용한 목표수질 설정 및 할당부하량 산정 방법을 제시하고 그 결과를 분석하였다. 동적모델 중 HSPF 유역모형을 미호천 유역에 대하여 구축하였으며, 보정 결과 구축된 모형은 2009년~2010년에 대하여 일유량 변화와 BOD 농도 변화를 잘 재현하는 것으로 판단되었다. 동적모델을 이용한 수질오염총량제 적용 방안은 3가지 case; (1)저수기 조건을 고려한 수질관리 방법(Case I), (2)연중 전 기간을 고려한 수질관리 방법(Case II), (3)연중 최악의 수질조건을 고려한 수질관리 방법(Case III)으로 나누어 제시하였다. 미호천 유역 말단에서 각 조건에 따른 BOD 목표수질을 산정한 결과는 Case II(4.2 mg/L) < Case I(5.0 mg/L) < Case III(7.8 mg/L) 순으로 연중 전 기간을 고려한 경우에서 가장 낮고 최악조건을 고려한 경우에서 가장 높았다. 할당부하량은 Case II > Case I > Case III 순으로 높게 나타났으며 최악조건을 고려한 경우에서 가장 엄격한 할당부하량이 산정되었다. 기준 강우 선정 및 비점오염원의 모델 적용방식 등에 대한 추가연구가 필요하며, 이들이 반영된다면 수질오염총량제에 동적모델을 적용함으로 인해 좀 더 합리적이고 과학적인 수질관리가 이루어질 것이라 사료된다.

Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs) System has been used to improve water quality in the Youngsan·Tamjin river basin since 2004. The Basic Policy of TMDLs sets up the standard flow based on the average dry condition or mid-range flow during the last 10 years. However, Target Water Quality (TWQ) assessment on TMDLs has been used to evaluate water quality through eight-day intervals over 36 times a year. The results for allocation evaluation and target water quality evaluation were different from each other in the same unit watershed during the first period. In order to improve the evaluation method, researchers applied Load Duration Curve (LDC) to evaluate water quality in nine unit watersheds of the Youngsan·Tamjin river basin. The results showed that achievement rates of TWQ assessment with the current method and LDC were 67~100% and 78~100%, respectively. Approximately 11% of the achievement rates with use of LDC were higher than those with use of the current method. In conclusion, it is necessary to review the application of the LDC method in all Four Major River Watersheds.

Agriculture reservoirs need a systematic approach that can control water purity and water improvement. The area under study, Bunam Lake exceeds the agricultural water standard level due to contamination from the upper stream. When the Taean Enterprise City was planned, the water quality improvement plan was applied to minimize the environmental change. However, in order to continuously maintain the water quality in the Bunam Lake, it was essential to apply the Total Pollution Load Management System (TPLMs). In order to achieve the targeted water quality in the Bunam Lake, standard flow rates and targeted water quality levels were applied to obtain the loading capacity which is as follows : BOD 1,891.2 kg/d, T-N 1,945.7 kg/d, T-P 131.7 kg/d. Also, the regional development load was calculated as, BOD 1,083.6 kg/d, T-N 942.2 kg/d, T-P 61.8 kg/d, which is required to be deceased :- by BOD 378.4 kg/d, T-N 198.9 kg/d, T-P 31.6 kg/d in order to safely achieve the targeted water quality in the Bunam Lake.

The objective of this study is to obtain adequate intercepting flow during wet weather conditions in combined sewer system. Two study sites are selected under considering different population density, one is developed area with heavy urbanization. Another is recently developing area. In the analysis of field investigation, SS was most significant in initial flushing effects compared with other factors and showed the result with the order of COD, TP, TN. As compared with event mean concentration(EMC) of runoff, BOD, TN and TP showed high concentrations in wide area with relatively large population density. It is by the reason that much pollution load was discharged to receiving water from urbanized area during wet period. According to results of storm-water modeling, 53% of total COD and 52% of total SS pollution load were discharged to receiving water by overflow than intercepting capacity in middle population density site. Also, in the urbanized area, pollution load was discharged to receiving water by 49% of total COD and 77% of total SS. These results can be applied to setup for pollution load flow(budget) generation, collection, treatment and discharging in order to obtain adequate intercepting flow.
