Coastal development works generally increase the suspended sediment concentration of the ambient water, causing environmental impacts in various manners. The most active measures in three sides have been reviewed for their applicabilities in Korea. Referring to the cases in the USA, the legislation of environmental windows seems to be not proper for Environmentally Sound and Sustainable Developments (ESSD) until sufficient scientific data are obtained to address the individual issues of potential negative impacts. Feedback monitoring can be regarded as the best way for ESSD. Korea also has the basic legal system for the feedback monitoring as well as Environmental Impact Assessments (EIA). However, the frequency, period and parameter of related surveys should be improved for the true ESSD. Moreover, environmental facilities such as environmental dredgers should be widely used for mitigating environmental Impacts caused by coastal development works.

It is generally known that paper industry is the second largest industry in the use of process water, and also have the highest environmental impact load in the contaminant sources. Paper is produced from the mixtures composed of 1% fibrous raw materials and 99% water. The optimum use of process water effects on the quality properties of paper and the environmental impact load of waste water treatment. In this research, the kinds of fibrous raw material & additives used in the paperboard production line were investigated, and the quantification of environmental loads and the environmental effects of process water on COD potential were evaluated. The NBDCODs were also analyzed from process water by the method of waste water treatment in paper mill and applied for the optimum use of recycling water, and zero effluent process. In the fibrous raw materials, KOCC caused the highest COD potentials, and sack paper & UKP was comparatively low. The NBDCOD of KOCC largely reduced after biological treatment because of easily biodegradable properties, but AOCC contained non-biodegradable materials. In chemical additives, COD was high in turns of rosin>starch>deaeration agent>dye, NBDCOD greatly reduced in starch and deaeration agent. In the case of 2 kinds of paperboard product, the COD potentials was mainly high in starch, AOCC and KOCC.

With its more than 35 years of experience with EIA of NEPA in United States, the extensive knowledge base of EIA could be the most suitable place for initial field of HIA to explore lessons available for. However, caution is needed as the technical differences in analysis, different policy context, and distinct professional culture between EIA and HIA might be. The successe of EIA of NEPA is the integration of environmental goals into decision making process, improved planning, and increased transparency and public involvement, whereas shortcomings of it were defined as the excessive volume and complexity of EIA documents, the limited and adversarial public involvement, the procedural process (not substantive), focus on projects (not on policies and programs), and the limited consideration of health impacts. Integrating HIA into existing EIA process is positive in two reasons that the human health is closely related with natural environment and EIA process is a fully established process that effectively cuts across bureaucratic and sectoral boundaries. Also, integrating of HIA into EIA might be a way with least resistance for the widespread use. A freestanding HIA separated from EIA is desirable in terms of excessive volume of EIA documents and the procedural and legal focus of EIA. It is needed to develop the formulated methodologies for advancing HIA whether it is a part of or separated from EIA, and to estimate the potential values of HIA in the substantial society context. When possible, HIA should be established on the ways that EIAs have been used successfully.

In this paper an improved one-dimensional frame element for modelling of reinforced concrete beams and columns subjected to impact is presented. The model is developed in the framework of a flexibility fibre element formulation that ignores the shear effect at material level. However, a simple shear cap is introduced at section level to take account of possible shear failure. The effect of strain rate at the fibre level is taken into account by using the dynamic increase factor (DIF) concept for steel and concrete. The capability of the formulation for estimating the element response history is demonstrated by some numerical examples and it is shown that the developed 1D element has the potential to be used for dynamic analysis of large framed structures subjected to impact of air blast and rigid objects.

The degree of air pollution is usually presented in terms of concentration. But, in evaluating the environmental impacts or air pollution control policies, the concentration values need to be interpreted in terms of damage effects on property and human health. The damage effect varies with the types of pollution, subjects and land use pattern of an affected area. Therefore, this study is aimed at developing a method of analyzing effects of various types of air pollutions on surrounding environmental setting with the EIMS (Environmental Information Management System) developed for land suitability analysis. Using the method formulated in this study, the long- term effects of such pollutants as $SO_2$ and HF on types of vegetation and residents, and potential, short-term effects of HCl leak accidents from manufacturing facilities in Ulsan and Onsan Industrial complex are analyzed. The presentation of the damage effects of air pollution rather than the concentration of pollutants will be useful for the preparation of environmental impact statements, the formulation of environmental policies, and the development of land use plans in heavily industrialized areas.

본 연구는 국내에서 시행중인 친환경 건축물 인증제도 (G-SEED)에 따른 환경영향 저감 효과를 파악하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 이를 위하여, G-SEED 인증을 받은 초등학교 건축물과 인증을 받지 않은 일반 초등학교 건축물을 대상으로, 전과정평가 방법론을 이용하여 4가지 환경영향범주 (지구온난화, 오존층파괴, 산성화, 부영양화)에 따른 환경영향을 평가하고, 결과를 비교하였다. 건축물에 대한 환경영향평가는 자재생산, 자재운송, 시공, 운영단계를 포함하였으며, 운영기간은 40년으로 설정하였다. 두 건축물의 단위연면적당 환경영향을 비교한 결과, 일반 초등학교 건축물에 비해 친환경 인증 초등학교 건축물의 환경영향이 큰 것으로 나타났다. 예를 들어, 친환경 인증 초등학교 건축물의 지구온난화지수는 3.751 $t-CO_2eq./m^2$ 로 산출된 반면, 일반 초등학교 건축물의 지구온난화지수는 3.282 $t-CO_2eq./m^2$ 로 산출되어, 약 12.5% 크게 나타났다. 이는 G-SEED 인증이 4가지 측면에서의 환경영향의 저감을 보장하지 못한다는 것을 의미한다. 따라서 건축물로부터 발생하는 환경영향의 저감을 달성하기 위해서는 G-SEED에 대한 보완이 필요하다.

The introduction of strategic environmental assessment (SEA) has strengthened and extended the value of environmental impact assessment (EIA) as a foundational tool for sustainable development. In particular, SEA helps to overcome the limitation of project EIA as a 'stand alone' approach, applied relatively late in the decision making cycle. SEA is applied to policy, plan and programme (3P) proposals, when major alternatives are open and systematic consideration can be given to their environmental effects. This process also corresponds to options appraisal of development proposal to find the best practical outcome having regard to all potential impacts. There are imperatives for sustainable development (SD) that are shaping future directions for EIA and SEA internationally, regionally and locally. There is a shift toward more integrative approaches of using EIA and SEA as sustainability tools in cooperated environmental management system (EMS). Korea has established and applied EIA for over twenty years for various projects. Given its coverage, the current EIA system is SEA exclusive. The Prior Environmental Review System (PERS), which is a SEA-type of system, was applied in the late 1990s, mainly for various developing planning programs. The current PERS has been modified as a SEA type system, but in general, policy is not going to be covered.

본 연구에서는 폐소형가전 재활용을 위한 파쇄, 선별 및 회수 공정에 대해 전과정평가(Life Cycle Assessment, LCA) 기법을 활용하여 환경영향을 분석하였다. 폐소형가전 파쇄, 선별 및 회수 공정의 지구온난화(Global Warming Potential, GWP)에 대한 환경영향은 $1.29E+02kg\;CO_2-eq./kg$으로 분석되었으며, 가중치 결과 1.17E-02Pt로 지구온난화(GWP)에 대한 환경영향의 경우 전체 환경영향의 약 57.1%, 자원고갈(ADP) 약 35.4%, 광화학산화물 형성(POCP) 약 4.8% 등이었다. 유용자원 1톤을 선별/회수하는 공정의 지구온난화(GWP)에 대한 환경영향은 플라스틱류 즉, ABS 33.7%, PP와 HIPS가 각각 약 16.8%, 철금속류 약 9.4% 등으로 플라스틱류의 선별/회수공정의 경우 지구온난화에 대한 환경영향이 가장 큰 것으로 분석되었다. 또한, 유용자원을 회수하여 재활용하므로서 신재 생산보다 지구온난화(GWP) 환경영향에 대하여 약 $2.73E+04ton\;CO_2-eq./ton$의 환경회피 효과가 발생하였으며, 이는 연간 약 48,236.4천원의 경제적 효과가 발생하는 것으로 조사되었다. 폐소형가전으로부터 유용자원을 효율적으로 재활용할 경우 지구온난화(GWP)에 대한 환경영향을 줄여 기후변화 대응에 효과적일 것으로 사료된다.
