The Korea had been known as a safe region in volcanic disaster. However, precursor phenomena for volcanic eruption in mountain Baekdu have been frequently reported in these days. Therefore, the number of volcano experts, who warn the volcanic eruption in the Korean peninsula, has been increased. This paper describes the plan for developing volcanic disaster response system for mountain Baekdu. First, disaster prevention business system of National Emergency Management Agency(NEMA) and related IT-based systems are analyzed. Second, business processes for volcanic disaster response are derived based on the business system. Third, The system architectures are designed referred to related disaster response system, and required spatial information is investigated. Finally, we implement the pilot system to test the suggested volcanic disaster response system. Applying suggested volcanic disaster response system to NEMA, additional test and system supplementation should be carried out. We expect that the complete volcanic disaster response system, which will be implemented based on this research, will minimize the volcanic disaster damage in the area of Korea, China, and Japan.

As of September 2008,45 Automatic Water Quality Monitoring Systems (AWQMS) have been installed at different sites on the 4 rivers to detect early the presence of pollutants in water and to issue an alarm. We count the number of issuing alarms by AWQMS, however, we will find the alarm has hardly been issued. The reasons for the scarcity of alarm issue are extensively being examined. The National Institute of Environmental Research attributes wrong alarm criteria for each AWQMS station to one the reasons. In this study, a suggestion has been made to modify the current alarm criteria to correspond with characteristics of river water quality. The current system with only two criteria (low and high) should be replaced as four-criteria systems (low, medium, high, and severe) based on cases of other advanced countries and stream conditions of Korea. The highest value of data collected for 5 years was suggested as the alarm criteria for each parameter. Meanwhile the alarm criteria for VOCs, phenol and heavy metals were established as same as drinking water quality criteria.

Natural disasters can cause major accidents in chemical facilities where they can lead to the release of hazardous materials which in turn can result in fires, explosions or toxic dispersion. Technological disasters triggered by natural disasters are referred to as NaTech(Natural Disaster Triggered Technological Disaster). These trends increase the probability of catastrophic future disasters and the potential for mass human exposure to hazardous materials released during disasters. In the present study, we proposed some methods for effective disaster management by conducting case study of major NaTech. First, establishing information sharing system of chemical accident for stakeholders and improving disaster manuals and standards of central and local government and co-operation support system. Second, activating information service of emergency planning and community right to know. Third, improving the integrated chemical accident database including NaTech accidents.

The purpose of this study is to identify the problems of the earthquake disaster safety management in the national industrial complexes and to suggest improvement counter-measure. Literature review for the safety management system of the Korea Industrial Complex Corporation and interview with practitioners was conducted. and Seismic design application survey was conducted on 28 national industrial complexes. In order to improve Earthquake Disaster Safety Management, Counter-measures were suggested such as the reinforcement of laws and regulations related Seismic. It is expected that the improvement counter-measures presented in this study can be used as policy-making data for improving the seismic performance of the national industrial complexes in the future.

Purpose: This study is intended to confirm the business disruptive risk in the Serious Accidents, and propose a plan to comply with the Serious Accidents Punishment Act through the Disaster Mitigation Activity Management System. Method: Through literature review and case studies, the requirements and characteristics of each of the Serious Accidents Punishment Act, the Disaster Mitigation Activity Management System, and ISO 45001 were compared and analyzed, and implications were derived. Result: The business disruption and financial adverse effects caused by industrial accidents were identified. Based on this and by using the Disaster Mitigation Activity Management System, measures to link the documentation requirements of the the Serious Accidents Punishment Act to the Disaster Mitigation Activity Management System, and to manage the implementation records of the Serious Accidents Punishment Act's duty were derived. Conclusion: When establishing and operating the Disaster Mitigation Activity Management System, it can not only comply with the Serious Accidents Punishment Act but also contribute to maintaining business continuity and ESG management through the prevention of various disasters and the minimization of secondary damage, etc.

In this study, legislative and policy issues related to advancing the maintenance system of water resource facilities were presented by investigating and analyzing the degree of aging and management status of water resource facilities. Data from the comprehensive Facility Management System (FMS) operated by the Korea Infrastructure Safety Corporation were collected and used to analyze the aging of water resource facilities. Using safety grade data categorized by facility, type, local area, and grade, the ratio of dangerous facilities and the aging rate were calculated to analyze the status of water resource facilities and guidelines and manuals related to water resource facilities were investigated. Through this, four required actions to address legislative and policy issues were presented: 1) Readjusting the scope of water resource facilities and supplementing guidelines and manuals, 2) Establishing a maintenance system considering changes in disaster conditions, 3) Improving the FMS and activating standard linkage services, and 4) Establishing a facility asset management system.

현재 재난문자서비스는 재난재해 상황의 발생이 예상되거나 발생된 지역에 관련 내용을 전달해주지만 재해 예측 및 재해 발생시 알림 기능 이상을 하지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구는 기존의 재난문자서비스 사용 경험이 있는 사용자의 의견을 통해 문제점을 파악하고, 개선하여 문자를 받는 사람의 위치를 중심으로 가까운 대피소를 즉시 검색할 수 있는 웹 애플리케이션(Web App)의 URL 주소를 첨부하여 신속히 대피를 유도할 수 있는 재난대피시스템을 제안하려 한다.

It is very difficult to forecast accurately a damage from the natural disaster which occurs frequently due to the climate change. When the significant weather event is forecast, it will be able to minimize a damage with the suitable prevention action. But 2000's our country meterological disaster damage is a several trillion won. Therefore, this paper analyzes Korea Meterological Administration, Japan Meterological Agency, television and newspaper have reported, information substance, transmission system, an ex post facto valuation about typhoon Nabi between september $5{\sim}7$ in 2005 and heavy rainfall in 1998 at Japan. Through the investigation, we want to present basic data order to rises the application effect of disaster prevention meterological information. We think KMA must present many information report to promote a people's understanding about the meterological information and the serious disaster situation. Also the disaster damage estimation model development is necessary, which forecasts the accurate damage scale due to the weather event, such as typhoon, heavy rainfall, strong wind. And also we think the KMA, National Emergency Management Agency, related agency, television and newspaper must positive reports the contents which is suitable to disaster response phases and an ex post facto examination. Then it grasps the problem of disaster prevention meterological information and must improve effectively.
