Among the rivers in Korea, the Han River is the largest, most important one, which runs through the Seoul metropolitan region in the west toward the yellow sea. In the Han River basin there live as many as 17.1 mil. people including appr, 11 mil, citizens in Seoul. The Seoul Metropolitan region, already containing appr. 40% of the nation's total populating, expectedly poses an ever-growing polluting burden to the Han River. Due to Korea's vigorous industrialization and heavy urbanization in the past quarter century, water pollution was observed to be increasing in the Han River until the mid-1980's, but thereafter the Han River began to improve little by little by virtue of the government's massive investment and all-out efforts in water preservation. Public awareness on the importance of environmental protection is increasing unprecedentedly. With a view to meeting people's growing demand for clean water and pleasant environment, the government established the "Comprehensive Mid-Term Environmental Conservation Plan" (1992∼1993) in 1991. According to the plan, 1,315 bil.won(1.7 bil.us$ ) is to be poured into the Han River Basin to install 113 water pollutant abatement plants including 43 treatment facilities. To successfully cope with the future's challenging need for the environmentally sound sustainable development, a variety of measures and an array of policies are going to be incorporated with emphasis on, -redistributing such polluting sources as population and industries -tightening control of the water pollutant discharge -restricting the pollution-accompanying land use -enhancing the assimilation capacity of the river -stirring up the public awareness and participation in the environment protection We hopefully anticipate that with those e(forts the Han River will improve as drawn in the attached "1996's Envisioned Han River Quality".

In this paper, a groundwater hydrological study of the Gyeongju well during the Silla period is conducted to investigate how sufficiently the Gyeongju well supplied water demand at the time. It is assumed that the current geology and soil condition in Gyeongju remain similar to the Silla period. Also, the land use and land coverage during the Silla period is estimated based on the current land condition in Gyeongju. Precipitation during the Silla period is analyzed using precipitation data from 1984 to 2014 provided by Gyeonju weather station. Precipitation analysis is applied based on 3 different scenarios; precipitation intensity during the Silla period was Case (1) the same as, Case (2) 30% more, and Case (3) 30% less than the precipitation intensity of the last decade (2005~2014). Furthermore, to observe the use of the well in Gyeongju during droughts, the following condition(Case (4)) is also considered; ten year drought during the Silla period was the same as the ten year drought from 1984 to 2014. Available amount of groundwater development is analyzed using NRCS-CN method. The results show that the potential amount of groundwater in Gyeongju during Silla era was for Case (1) $62,825,272m^3/year$, Case (2) $93,606,567m^3/year$, Case (3) $32,277,298m^3/year$, and Case (4)$32,870,896m^3/year$. Also, it has been shown that $45,260,000m^3$ of groundwater were required to supply to all households in Gyeongju during Silla era. Therefore, if the precipitation intensity during Silla era was similar with the last decade, the groundwater would provide enough supply to all households in Gyeongju. However, in the case that the precipitation intensity during Silla era was 30% less than the last decade or a ten year drought happened, it is predicted that the water use in Gyeongju would have been limited.

It is important to build new irrigation facilities as a countermeasure against new water demand, however the effective use of existing facilities is rather advantageous economi cally and socially.Since many irrigation facilities were constructed before 1960's, the functions of them have been declined and rehabilitation of deteriorated facilities needs great expenses. To operate the irrigation facilities efficiently, the criteria for the maintenance and repair of irrigation facilities should be established according to the importance of structures. for the reasonable evaluation of the irrigation facilities, the Irrigation Facility Inquiry System(IFIS) was developed. The present status of the irrigation facilities are grouped by the type and scale of structures, and the characteristics of irrigation facilities under control of Farmland Improvement Association(FIA) were analysed.

High temperature furnace such as Steam power plant and incinerator contribute considerable part of NOx generation and face urgent demand of De-NOx system. Reducing agents are necessary to use De-NOx system. In this study mixing caused by direct injection of reducing agent solution spray into flue gas duct was measured. Carbonated water was used as tracer and simulated agent because ammonia as a reducing agent is not proper to experiment. Mixing and evaporation must occur simultaneously and quickly enough to achieve desirable efficiency. To achieve that, the angle of attack of static mixer and the location is simulated and $CO_2$ concentration is measured.

As recent buildings often use low-quality concrete materials, are constructed defectively, and are put in extreme environmental conditions, many of them show the shortening of life resulting from the corrosion of reinforcing rods by salt damage, carbonization, freezing and thawing, cracking. This in turn raises the cost of repair and maintenance, so it is required to extend the life of structures through enhancing the durability of concrete. In response to the demand, researches on high-durability concrete are being made actively focused on the maximum water-cement ratio, the maximum unit quantity, the minimum cover thickness, the addition of mineral admixtures, etc. With this background, the present study examined the basic physical properties of concrete containing admixtures for enhancing the durability of concrete.

Because reinforced concrete structures were being high more and more in recent year, concrete was being demanded high performance of high strength and high fluidity. But various characteristics must be confirmed besides guarantee of demand strength in ultra-high strength concrete. In ultra-high strength concrete, autogenous shrinkage and drying shrinkage grow big because of a low water cement ratio and much quantity of binder. So dangerousness of crack generation grow big in early ages. And ultra-high strength concrete is influenced by use materials more than ordinary strength concrete. In this study we were examined mix design, atuogenous shrinkage and pumpability of ultra-high strength concrete to apply on the ground.

For the analysis of a dry process fuel cycle, new modules were implemented into the fuel cycle analysis code DYMOND, which was developed by the Argonne National Laboratory. The modifications were made to the energy demand prediction model, a Canada deuterium uranium (CANDU) reactor, direct use of spent pressurized water reactor (PWR) fuel in CANDU reactors (DUPIC) fuel cycle model, the fuel cycle calculation module, and the input/output modules. The performance of the modified DYMOND code was assessed for the postulated once-through fuel cycle models including both the PWR and CANDU reactor. This paper presents modifications of the DYMOND code and the results of sample calculations for the PWR once-though and DUPIC fuel cycles.

본 연구에서는 한강 권역의 포함된 65개 지자체를 대상으로 5년간 월별 물이용량 자료를 수집, 분석하여 월 단위의 대표적인 생공용수 물이용 패턴을 도출하고, 물수급 네트워크 모델(MODSIM)과 기초자료를 이용하여 물이용 패턴을 반영함에 따른 유역 내 발생 가능한 물부족량의 차이를 비교하였다. 분석 결과, 특정 시기별 물이용 주기성을 파악하고, 월별 일정 비율 대비-3.120%~+4.322%의 증감 폭이 나타남을 확인하였다. 이를 물수급 모델에 적용할 경우, 28개 중권역 중 17개 유역에서 물부족량의 변화가 나타났고, 연간 동일한 수요량임에도 불구하고, 시기별 수요량의 비율을 적용함에 따라 최대 생공용수 부족량은 기존대비 약 8.0% 수준으로 감소할 것으로 분석되었다. 장래 기후변화, 사회적, 지역적 특성이 반영된 물이용 패턴에 대한 예측 연구와 연계한다면, 더욱 현실감 있는 물수급 전망과 신뢰도 높은 국가수자원계획 수립이 가능할 것이라고 판단된다.

Recently, the population growth, industrial and agricultural development are rapidly undergoing in the Lower Rio Grande Valley (LRGV) in Texas. The Lower Rio Grande Valley (LRGV) composed of the 4 counties and three of them are interesting for Non-point and point source pollutant modeling: Starr, Cameron, and Hidalgo. Especially, the LRGV is an intensively irrigation region, and Texas A&M University Agriculture Program and the New Mexico State University College of Agriculture applied irrigation district program, projects in GIS and Hydrology based agricultural water management systems and assessment of prioritized protecting stream network, water quality and rehabilitation based on water saving potential in Rio Grande River. In the LRGV region, where point and non-point sources of pollution may be a big concern, because increasing fertilizers and pesticides use and population cause. This project objective seeks to determine the accumulation of non-point and point source and discuss the main impacts of agriculture and environmental concern with water quality related to pesticides, fertilizer, and nutrients within LRGV region. The GIS technique is widely used and developed for the assessment of non-point source pollution in LRGV region. This project shows the losses in $kg/km^2/yr$ of BOD (Biological Oxygen Demand), TN (total Nitrogen) and TP (total phosphorus) in the runoff from the surface of LRGV. Especially, farmers in Cameron County consume a lot of fertilizer and pesticide to improve crop yield net profit. Then, this region can be created as larger nonpoint source area for nutrients and the intensity of runoff by excess irrigation water. And many sediment and used irrigation water with including high nutrients can be discharged into Rio Grade River.

우리나라 저수지의 수질 특성과 이에 영향을 미치는 환경요인을 파악하기 위하여, 운영목적, 수위변동 및 지리적 분포가 다양한 73개 저수지를 선정하여 수질 요인으로 화학적산소요구량 (COD), 엽록소 a (Chl a), 총인 (TP), 총질소 (TN)를, 수문지형 요인으로 연수위변동폭, 총저수량, 댐의 고도, 유역 면적, 호안발달도 (shoreline development index)를, 토지피복 요인으로서 산림, 농경지 및 도시화지역의 면적비율을 조사하였다. 저수지 수질은 유역의 도시화지역과 농업지역의 면적 비율이 크고, 고도가 낮고 연수위변동폭과 유역면적이 좁으며 총저수량이 적고 원형에 가까운 형태의 저수지에서 더욱 부영양화가 심하였다. 저수지 운영목적에서는 농업용수용 저수지가 홍수조절용 저수지보다 수질이 좋지 않았다. 변수선택과 경로분석의 결과에서, TP에 의한 Chl a에 영향을 받는 COD는 수위변동폭과 호안발달도에 의하여 직접적으로 영향을 받았다. 또한 TP는 유역의 도시화면적에 의하여 직접적으로 영향을 받으며 토지이용은 저수지의 고도와 관련이 있었다. 한편 TP는 수위변동폭과 호안발달도에 영향을 받았다. 결론적으로 우리나라의 저수지 부영양화는 유역의 토지이용, 수문적, 지형적 특성에 의하여 영향을 받으며, 특히 저수지 운영목적에 따른 인위적인 물관리에 의한 수위변동과 저수지의 위치에 의하여 수질 특징이 결정된다고 생각된다.
